[SOLVED] ffmpeg issue during compilation on Linux

[Mystro256]

I was hoping I could get some guidance or direction for compiling vbam 1.8.0.1054 on Linux. It seems to compile to about 26% and fail due to ffmpeg issues.

 

I'm running Fedora 16 and I have a feeling my issue is with the ffmpeg package I have installed from RPMFusion. I just wanted to check here first with someone who would know what the issue is before I make a bug report with RPMFusion.

 

Here's the terminal commands and output from my attempt at compiling:

(note that I have ffmpeg installed an /usr/include/ffmpeg/libavformat/avformat.h exists)

Code: Select all

Thanks in advance!

 

and keep up the good work to the devs for this godly software [img]<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/smile.png[/img]/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20" /> haha

[Squall Leonhart]

if you set /DENABLE_WX=on

 

does it complete?

[Mystro256]

No, unfortunately it's the same error [img]<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/wacko.png[/img]/emoticons/wacko@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 

I should note that it builds fine with 1001, but i remember having the same error with svn1030 when I tried to build it so many months ago

Well from what I can tell by the MinGW port of GCC, default search paths for header resource includes don't extend beyond the directory you have specified to find /include.

 

So from what I can tell you have three solutions:

<ol style="list-style-type:decimal;">[*]Add something ending with "/usr/include/ffmpeg" to the directories search list.

[*]Remove the compiler directive from FFMPEG.CPP to include , and replace it with either a directive to include or the entirety of that header's contents.

[*]Alter your compiler installation by moving the "/libavformat" folder up one directory, outside of "/ffmpeg".

</ol>

You do the same thing with everything from inside the /usr/include/ffmpeg folder. That's what I did from back on SVN 1055 to compile this on fedora.

 

[Iconoclast]

That's if you really want to avoid the first option or simply don't find the time to find out how.

 

The need has never arisen for me to try it, but the natural solution is to specify search directories in the compiler commands script. This way, you don't need to interfere with your installation or the original VBA-M source files. If you find differences between the compiler resource setups for Microsoft Visual Studio and the GCC, they could both be correct for various reasons and not need modifications to their structure or your source code.

Thanks for your help!

 

Seems adding the path in CPATH before compiling worked just fine:

Code: Select all

export CPATH='/usr/include/ffmpeg'
cmake ....

Hah. Seriously, squall. /DENABLE_WX=on? For a file not found error? What were you thinking? [img]<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/tongue.png[/img]/emoticons/tongue@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 

But my various emulation algorithms research using MinGW is the only reason I've become familiarized with GCC to happen to know about this, so it's good to know Universal would have stepped in if I hadn't.
