Default Compiling HPB bot with Borland's? - 24-02-2004

Ok I have downloaded and read the readme.txt in the HPB bot template. It says how to compile the dll with Borlands and I have it installed properly but dont get what he means by copying the makefile_borland to makefile? where is that makefile? I get the and then run the make command? but how do I copy the makefile_borland to makefile?

Please help

P.S how do you read the latest HPB bot source code as its in some weird format at botman's website. Linux maybe?

The "latest" bot source code has been ported to metamod. In this effect it can compile without any difference on Windows and Linux, with MSVC, GCC or MinGW32.

In the TEMPLATE source code (which is the one you seem to have) there must be a file called "Makefile_borland" somewhere. Rename it to "Makefile" (don't forget the capital M).

Could you post the errors you get ? (only the first lines)

Also have you checked the include paths in the Makefile ? Open the "Makefile" file with notepad and check that all the include paths (which are the relative paths where the compiler will go and look for its include files) are well suited for your system. The include paths are options that begind with -I or /I (such as "-I../../metamod-1.13/metamod", which would tell the compiler that some include files it needs are located in "..\..\metamod-1.13\metamod" relatively to the current directory.)

Looks like your Borland compiler is incorrectly installed. It fails to find the standard include files (math.h, stdio.h and the likes are standard C includes).

BTW you know you can copy and paste text from a DOS box instead of taking a whole screen capture ? Right-click on the DOS box title bar, select "Modify", then select a block of text, use the same menu to copy it and paste it elsewhere with CTRL+V like normal.

You need to setup these files or nothing will work

BCC32.CFG
ILINK32.CFG

Thanks guys. I edited the paths specified in the BCC32.cfg, ILINK32.cfg and Makefile files, and now it compiles very nicely

Thanks again
