Re: CZ released!!!

well i got a successfull compile now but the thing still dont work right yet:
Couldn't get GiveFnptrsToDll in .\czero\addons\metamod\metamod_cz.dll
HOST_ERROR: Couldn't get DLL API from .\czero\addons\metamod\metamod_cz.dll

Re: CZ released!!!

Could you post your GiveFnptrsToDll() prototype ?

...I think this is what you're asking for

Re: CZ released!!!

guys, i thought we had a similiar problem when we tried to compile metamod and such on our server. Can't we just get that source bundled?

Re: CZ released!!!

so is this GiveFnptrsToDll() error; is it a sdk problem (still not current?) or is this a metamod code problem?

Re: CZ released!!!

I think it's a compiler issue. Metamod is meant to compile with GCC on Linux, GCC + Cross-compiling (on Linux) for Windows, or MSVC natively for Windows. Other compilers may not behave correctly and GiveFnptrsToDll is not correctly exported.

How is "DLLEXPORT" defined in the code you're using ?

+ Cross-compiling (on Linux) for Windows

nope that is broken and not fixed, i read it after installing the cross compile stuff ...

Re: CZ released!!!

Code:

// Macro for function-exporting from DLL..

// from SDK dlls/cbase.h:

//! C functions for external declarations that call the appropriate C++ methods



// Windows uses "__declspec(dllexport)" to mark functions in the DLL that

// should be visible/callable externally.

//

// It also apparently requires WINAPI for GiveFnptrsToDll().

//

// See doc/notes_windows_coding for more information..



// Attributes to specify an "exported" function, visible from outside the

// DLL.

#undef DLLEXPORT

#ifdef _WIN32

                  #define DLLEXPORT __declspec(dllexport)

                  // WINAPI should be provided in the windows compiler headers.

                  // It's usually defined to something like "__stdcall".

#elif defined(linux)

                  #define DLLEXPORT /* */

                  #define WINAPI  /* */

#endif /* linux */

this?
__declspec(dllexport)

Re: CZ released!!!

so for those who are a$$ broke, like me, i found out that microsoft offers the same command line compiler that comes with msvc; FOR FREE!!! W00T!
check it out:
http://www.thefreecountry.com/compilers/cpp.shtml
here's hoping i can get it to work.

HELP:
ok, so im assuming that you use this command line compiler with dos (on windows). every command i try comes back with "not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program, or batch file." do i need to create a batch file to compile? what are the commands?
