[SOLVED] Problems while compiling ZSnes

Mega-X · 10-18-2011, 10:46 AM

Hi there.

I've downloaded the ZSnes source code from here: http://www.zsnes.com/index.php?page=files (the latest version) and the I've tried to compile those, but I received the following error:

Quote:

tools/strutil.h:34:96: error: 'strncasecmp' was not declared in this scope

So I examined that file and I've realized that there was

Code:

#include <string>
#include <vector>
#include <cctype>

I've added the ".h" at each include file but now it says

Quote:

tools/strutil.h:26:20: fatal error: vector.h: No such file or directory

I've tried with

Code:

find /usr/include -type f -name '*vector*'

but any of the file listed didn't help.

What I have to install in order to have "vector.h" and the corresponding library? Thanks. :>

I use slackware 13.37, 64 bit version.

Can be compiled when you use the six patches
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool....debian.tar.gz
But only on a 32bits OS : Zsnes is for 32bits only.

Please have a look at the "amd64 package" here :
http://packages.debian.org/sid/otherosfs/zsnes
Depends on "i386 libraries" only.

( Zsnes is a 'one file' application : /usr/bin/zsnes .
You should be able to use a binary from a Deian or Fedora package,
if you have 'Multi-lib' installed.)

P.S. : New c++ headers no .h, e.g. 'string'. Old headers : 'string.h' etc.

Try:
http://code.google.com/p/snes9x-gtk/
instead. Works on 64-bit and has tons of features, including multi-threading and opengl.

The latest version are still not compiling so here is the patch! To build zsnes-1.51 do the following:

First open zsnes-1.51/parsegen.cpp

First add #include <cstring>

#include <fstream>
#include <string>
+#include <cstring>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>

then find and change one line ...

}
}

-int main(size_t argc, const char *const *const argv)
+int main(int argc, const char *const *const argv)
{
const char *cheader_file = 0;
___________________________________________________

Then Open file zsnes-1.51/tools/depbuild.cpp

First add #include <cstdlib> and #include <unistd.h>

#include <string>
#include <cstdio>
+#include <cstdlib>
+#include <unistd.h>
using namespace std;

#include "fileutil.h"

then find and change one line ...

}

-int main(size_t argc, const char *const *const argv)
+int main(int argc, const char *const *const argv)
{
if (argc < 5)
__________________________________________________

Then open zsnes-1.51/tools/strutil.h

First add #include <cstring>

#include <string>
+#include <cstring>
#include <vector>

Ok a patch would be better but this error has occurred in many other apps so it will help you to better understand and apply this to other software as well Open Source Free For Every one http://cersi.tk worlds best Free Operating System Mos 1.0
