Dc dev pack

[Vorrtexx]

I changed the Makefile in Iris3d to use the stl library that comes with GCC for anyone who ever has had trouble trying to build Iris3D with the STLPort. So this library source doesn't require STLPort to build.

I've tested the build with rawoul's cygwin build and it worked fine for me. Also, for anyone on a higher version of GCC 3.3.3, you need to edit the makefiles in iris3d and opcode to set the version of GCC. Environmental variable is called GCC_VERSION and it's at the top of the file.
You can get the library package Here

Had no luck geting it to work since cygwin is complaining of some entry point in sh-elf .. Cygwin install is over 1 year old looks like i will have to redownload it. Ive removed the old install and every thing that might cause the problem. Read on the net people having this problem with the cgywin1.dll i need the newer version.

Any ways This is how i untared it was this correct.

bzip2 -d dcdev.tar.bz2
tar xvf dcdev.tar



I think this is correct winrar does not work as stated.

Ian, I had problems with my cygwin as well, as it's also over 1 year old.
I downloaded two recent packages called : cygwin-1.5.11-1.tar.bz2 and libintl3-0.14.1-1.tar.bz2

I extracted them to my cygwin directory, but I had to copy /usr/bin directory from the package cygwin-1.5.11-1.tar.bz2 to /bin for it to work. After that I was able to compile.

Thanks Vorrtexx

With the environ files ive noticed it's changed a lot im geting a bit stuck with errors. Â*'Say my system is like this path wize.
C:\cygwin\usr\local\dcdev Â*how should i edit the environ files ---
DC_ROOT="/usr/local${USER}/dcdev" Â*i Â*thought this would be correct.
Never seen this style of environ files before.

Errors i get are as follows i know it looks like a wrong path must be looking at the errors.

make -C display
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/dcdev/sticks/src/display'
kos-c++ -c SMenu.cpp -o SMenu.o
make[1]: kos-c++: Command not found
make[1]: *** [SMenu.o] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/dcdev/sticks/src/display'
make: *** [_dir_display] Error 2

Im runing the environ file like this Â*. ./environ.sh in the kos directory?

Vorrtexx what did you have to run first and path to change to get it to compile most times i dont ask but ive deleted my other dev system and have to get this to work some how. :-[

Any help on these environ files as im use to kos 1.1.9 style.

[Vorrtexx]

Ok.
Well rawoul packaged the entire thing up from his home directory, which for him was:

/home/{USER}/dcdev/

so if you want to get it going straight from extraction, move/copy the dcdev.tar.bz2 file to your home directory in cywgin. This may be something like C:\cygwin\home\ian , or from within the unix environment itself, /home/ian

now execute the command:

tar -xvjf dcdev.tar.bz2

Once extraction is complete you should now have something like /home/ian/dcdev

After that you are pretty much ready to go. you just have to load the environment variable from the environ.sh file in the dcdev directory.

so cd to /home/ian/dcdev and execute the command:

source environ.sh

Now the KOS environment variables should all be set and you're ready to compile.


The KOS directory structure has changed quite a bit from 1.1.9 too.


However, if you prefer to have your KOS stuff in another directory, make sure to edit the DC_ROOT variable in the environ.sh file from the dcdev directory, to the path of where dcdev is extracted. Then load your environment variables from this file...ignore the one in the kos folder. This is just the way rawoul has his environment setup, so if you know what you're doing you can edit the environ.sh file in the kos directory and use that one instead.
Let me know how it goes.

[Vorrtexx]

just reading your post there again and I noticed you're loading your environ.sh file from the kos directory. try the one from the dcdev directory and it will probably work then

Doesn't GCC 3.3.3 sometimes produce broken code for SH4?

[Ian_micheal]

After that im still geting Â*

make[1]: kos-c++: Command not found

I have Â*followed what you said exactly. Â*Even Tryed the old directory it still gives the same error.The CPP base must not be finding the right path? Cygwin is setup correctly my old system i rebuilt and it works fine with this new install of cygwin as well. but kos 1.1.9 is very much out-of date now and gcc 2.95 is out of date to I was looking forward to this new system :'(.

I have it here now Â*
C:\cygwin\home\Ian micheal\dcdev

Source environ.sh

Â* is there a new make Â*Â*command as well? :: I use to put . ./environ.sh for kos before..

Thanks for helping me out with this . Â*I will get it sooner or later it should be working looking at what you told me but im geting the one error. Which has some thing to do with a wrong path.

I notice there's a space in your username "Ian micheal".
I would say cygwin has a problem setting the environment variables because of this.
So I went ahead and tested setting up the environment on my machine with the username you are using and it had problems using the environment variables with "ian micheal" in it.

So I would say either change the username to "ian_micheal" or extract the dcdev package to "/usr/local/dc" maybe.
then open "/usr/local/dc/dcdev/environ.sh" and edit the DC_ROOT variable to "/usr/local/dc/dcdev"

DC_ROOT="/usr/local/dc/dcdev"

now load the environ.sh file with either:

source environ.sh

or

. ./environ.sh

Test if the example will compile for you now.
