Building in wine on Linux?

codiac · Nov 22, 2024

I've recent switched to Linux and have the mod running on steam, but I'd like to be able to build the develop branch. Has anyone done this?

I have Strawberry Perl installed in wine but when I try to compile I get some odd output.

First of all, any perl will do. It doesn't have to be windows perl. Any linux perl distribution will do as long as you include the correct modules. I intentionally made sure only to use modules included with Strawberry perl as that makes it easier to get it working for people with no knowledge about setting up compilers and libraries.

Not sure what to make of fixme:file:server_get_file_info. It's not part of the source code, so it is likely something in wine. Since I'm not a wine expert, all I can do is to link you to a guide. The compiler is the same for colonization and civ4, so odds are the tutorial will work for colonization too. Sure there are WTP specific parts to compiling, like the perl requirement, but if the issue is the compiler itself, then the tutorial should do the trick.

[TUTORIAL] - Compiling the DLL on Linux

Getting the DLL to compile using wine isn't nearly as trivial as it is on Windows. But in the process of getting rid of my previous hacky Makefile setup I mostly figured this out, so I decided to write a guide for it. Prerequisites - A PC with a Linux distribution. I've done this on several...

@Nightinggale Thanks, I will give this a crack.

@Nightinggale I got that working without changing anything, so I poked around a bit more. I had to edit the Makefile and one of the headers. It might be due to something in my environment, but I'm not sure.

This might not be the minimal set of changes required as I tried a bunch of stuff before I got it working.

Lines that don't look like they changed are replacing spaces with tabs.

Nightinggale · Nov 24, 2024

From my brief look through, it seems like it is removing a few @. This character removes the output of the following command from STDOUT and is as such not needed in order to compile. If it causes issues, then it will be removed. The other change is apparently linux is upset with lack of spaces between command and output redirection. I don't think windows cares about that, so that one should be possible to be changed too without issues.

Thanks for reporting back.
