Some Compile-Errors[message #102125]

Well, when i'm trying to compile the JA2 sc i get some compile errors while compiling the "standard gaming platform". The weird issue of this error is that it says "can't find iostream.h". I think i just deletet an include path when configuring my VS.net 2003. So if somone could post the standard include pathes (libary and executable pathes too) so i could check this. I tryed to find some "clean" configurations on google but it didn't spit out anything usefull. I also tried to reinstall vs.net but there's a configuration file for the workspace i forgot to delete so the whole operation was useless.
Would be nice
~Thanks

The Teddy

if you got the version from CVS then you should know that it is not guaranteed to work under that compiler...

if you get the one under SVN then it will work with that compiler since it is the one I use! Smile

if you are compiling from the original source from Strategy First's CD.. then you need to comment out that include. you didn't delete it, its just not in that compiler's distribution.

thanks a lot

which version of the source do you have?

it sounds like your compiling as C++ with an older source version.

LNK2001 means it can find the function... with JA2 this often means your compiling under C++ and the function prototype is either missing or is incorrect (in that the types of the arguments don't match the definition)

LNK2005 means a variable is initialized twice... when attempting to compile the original JA2 as C++ this would be caused by variables being defined in the headers... such as (int variable;) in the .h file... to correct these need to be changed to extern int variable; and the original int variable; needs to be placed in one of the cpp files that included the header. (this cause only 1 symbol to be created, under standard C it would clip secondary symbol definitions)

the SVN repository has a version of JA2 already ported to C++

Hate to bother you guys that are doing the good work but I've finally thrown up my hands and decided to plink around with the code directly.

My question is, where in the code is the Finger Print I.D. check for the rocket rifle? I looked around for about an hour tonight and didn't see it. If you have found it I'd appreciate hearing which heading (or rather sub file?) it's in. I'll eventually find it but this would help out alot.

Search for ubImprintID using your compilers 'Find in files' button and you will find all the places where it is used. Make sure to use this search option (the 'Find in files') otherwise it won't search the whole sourcecode. It generates a popup window where you enter your search word. It will become your best friend! Be sure of it...! It sure is mine!
