Compile latest core under Linux?

[OWHorus]

Hello,

just tried to compile the latest core. Under Win 7 it compiles fine, using Visual Studio 12. Instructions are clear, 4 versions are built (static, dynamic, x86 and x64). POL works fine under Windows. Yet there seems to a problem with uoconvert: On a UO ML installation it simply ignores the width= and height= parameters, it always uses 6xxx * 4096, even with the smaller maps. But using an older uoconvert is possible.

On Linux things are different

I installed Ubuntu 14 LTS in a VM, installed the necessary packages, installed cmake, last version from website (since Ubuntus package is ancient), and built boost. Then I used buildcore in pol-core folder.

The build process started, all things were found, but the current core does not compile! It stops with:

.../pol-core/clib/clib_MD5.cpp:116:104: fatal error: MD5.h: No such file or directory
#include "MD5.h" //TODO: rework the following code - does not work with up-to-date header files anymore
^
compilation terminated.
make[2]: *** [pol-core/clib/CMakeFiles/clib.dir/clib_MD5.cpp.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[1]: *** [pol-core/clib/CMakeFiles/clib.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

Is there an easy way to fix this?

Try to install:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install libpcap-dev libssl-dev

Hello aderal,

thanks for the tips. I did find out myself (I have no experience with Cmake) that obviously openssl/md5.h was missing and installed it.

How do you clean CMakes caches? Because it did not find the newly installed include. It seems to remember that it was not there - but I edited the CMakeCache.txt manually and added HAVE_OPENSSL=1 - now it compiles.

I need to build my own platform to compile for Linux (our server runs under Debian) and for Windows (I develop scipts on Windows). Thanks for the link to a precompiled core anyway. I will test it, and it can be a reference. But for the long run I want to be able to compile myself.

Simply delete content of pol-core/bin-build/ except:
.gitignore
build_linux.sh
build_linux32.sh
build_linux_release.sh
