  |  | Mike is hoping to help John build Terminus under linux.     | 
 |  | We'll need fmod and SDL.  | 
 | 
  |  | 
  | 
 |  There is some stuff in here on getting set up to build SDL apps with
  |  | [[Terminus SDL and fmod under linux]] (done)  | 
 |  KDeveloper: http://gpwiki.org/index.php/SDL
  |  | 
 |  
  |  | 
 |  You will need SDL, plus the SDL_image and SDL_gfx support libs.  
  |  | 
 |  Available from: http://www.libsdl.org/index.php
  |  | 
 |  
  |  | 
 |  And the FMOD sound system from http://www.fmod.org.

 |    |  | Go to [http://soloforge.com Soloforge] for the latest updates!  | 
 | '''FEDORA'''
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | '''1''' Install SDL and fmod, so easy!!
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 |  yum install SDL_gfx
  |  | 
 |  yum install SDL_image
  |  | 
 |  yum install fmod
  |  | 
 |  
  |  | 
 |  Mar 19 22:42:01 Installed: SDL_gfx.i386 2.0.13-2.2.fc4.rf 
  |  | 
 |  Mar 19 22:45:23 Installed: SDL_image.i386 1.2.4-1.2.fc4.rf
  |  | 
 |  Mar 19 23:11:05 Installed: fmod.i386 3.74.1-1.2.fc4.rf
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | J: Huh.  Does that yum app go out and get the latest version too?  Slick.
  |  | 
 | I will get some source control up and running today.
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | M: yep it auto-updates everything to the latest stable versions, including tracking down dependencies.
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | '''2''' Grab the source - John is using subversion - very l337!
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 |  yum install subversion
  |  | 
 |  cd development
  |  | 
 |  mkdir terminus
  |  | 
 |  cd terminus
  |  | 
 |  svn checkout http://xxxxx/terminus/
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | and there it is!
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | '''3''' Build it
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | sdl-config tells you what you need on the gcc command line:
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 |  [m@thedigitalmachine terminus]$ sdl-config --libs 
  |  | 
 |  -L/usr/lib -lSDL -lpthread
  |  | 
 |  [m@thedigitalmachine terminus]$ sdl-config --static-libs
  |  | 
 |  -L/usr/lib -lSDL -lpthread -lm -ldl -lasound -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lXext
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | So let's try this:
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 |  g++ main.cpp -o main `sdl-config --cflags --static-libs`
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | Here's what we got, we're missing fmod libs:
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 |  In file included from system.hpp:17, 
  |  | 
 |                   from startup.hpp:8,
  |  | 
 |                   from main.cpp:8:
  |  | 
 |  util/audio.hpp:10:23: fmod/fmod.h: No such file or directory
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | Try again:
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 |  g++ main.cpp -o main `sdl-config --cflags --static-libs` -L/usr/lib/fmod
