 | Huh.  Does that yum app go out and get the latest version too?  Slick.
  |  | 
 | I will get some source control up and running today.
  |  |

  |  | 
 | 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
  |  | 
 |    Mar 20 20:00:03 Installed: subversion.i386 1.2.3-2.1
  |  | 
 |  
  |  | 
 |  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 so far:
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 |   In file included from system.hpp:17,
  |  | 
 |                   from startup.hpp:8,
  |  | 
 |                   from main.cpp:8:
  |  | 
 |  util/audio.hpp:82: error: syntax error before `*' token
  |  | 
 |  util/audio.hpp:145: error: `FMOD_SOUND' was not declared in this scope
  |  | 
 |  
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | <span style="color:green">
  |  | 
 | I looked at /usr/include/fmod/fmod.h and it looks like FMOD_SOUND has been replaced with FSOUND_SAMPLE?  I could be wrong.  I tried s/r and I'm getting errors on other FMOD_* defines.  Time to do some research on fmod versions...
  |  |

  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | <span style="color:green">
  |  | 
 | Hmmm... There are two versions of FMOD Ex, the C and the C++ version.  I had to use the C version because the C++ version is not compatable with Dev-C++ and MinGW.  Check and make sure that you have the C version of the lib installed too.
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | FYI, here is my linker options:
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | -lmingw32 -lSDLmain -lSDL -mwindows
  |  | 
 | ../../Dev-Cpp/lib/libSDL_image.a
  |  | 
 | ../../Dev-Cpp/lib/libfmodex.a
  |  | 
 | ../../Dev-Cpp/lib/libSDL_gfx.a
