Development resources

[Matlo]

The goal of this post is to redirect potential GIMX developers to some useful resources.

• How to compile GIMX from a Linux terminal.
• How to install Windows development tools for GIMX.

Feel free to report any problem or to ask for some additional info.

nice, very very useful info for ppl who have less exp with C and eclipse

[Matlo]

The second tutorial is now even more easier as I made installation+build scripts

Anyone should now be able to build GIMX in windows, even without any knowledge about C/C++ programming!

I've compiled the latest version of GIMX
The code is amazingly clean and I've also noticed some lovely new icons

FPSConfig is cool too, but I love lists more

Getting heaps of errors I must have missed something.

[Matlo]

Hard to tell if you don't provide us some error messages.

[cldfusion]

Unresolved inclusion: <wx/msgdlg.h>
Unresolved inclusion: <pwd.h>

And other inclusions with <wx/

Symbol 'std' could not be resolved

[Matlo]

You should install mingw and the libraries again, something went probably wrong at these steps.
Pay attention to any error message displayed in the terminal.

Yeah, the first time I installed them I probably missed something but now i'm getting these:

./build.sh: line 16: unzip: command not found
./build.sh: line 23: svn: command not found
./build.sh: line 26: cd: GIMX: No such file or directory
make: Makefile.win: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target `Makefile.win'. Stop.

Did ./install.sh work without errors?
