Anybody using Dev-C++ to compile seti? Yes, Eric Korpela compiles the stock Windows release with Dev-C++, and I also use it. Note that the current setiathome_enhanced source is for the Multibeam application which should only be used in the SETI Beta project until the project decides to release it here. You'll need parts of the BOINC source too. If you have specific questions I may be able to help, I usually scan this board at least once a day. Joe |

Any tutorial or guide line for sharing? :) No, AFAIK there isn't any. But here are some quick tips which may get you started. The project files are in the seti_boinc\\client\\win_build subdirectory. Theoretically you should be able to load SAHjpeg.dev and build the JPEG library, then seti_boinc.dev and build the application. The JPEG library build ends with one error for me, DevC++ sets the makefile to run ranlib at the end and it seems to fail every time. But since it would only add an index to the library to speed up linking I just ignore that error. The parts of the application build which use BOINC source will give many warnings, most of which come from converting NULL to DWORD. The BOINC source also depends on DbgHelp.h but doesn't provide it. Theoretically, you should install the Microsoft Platform SDK or a Microsoft compiler to get that, but the file can be found by itself on the web. Then you'll probably find that parts of boinc\\lib\\stackwalker_imports.h conflict with DbgHelp.h and need to be commented out. But eventually you should be able to compile with no errors and only benign warnings. Joe |
