./configure
make
sudo make install

but when it comes with its own make file it never works hear is the error i get this is for a program called arasan a chess program

Code:

mkdir -p ../build
mkdir -p ../export
mkdir -p ../profile
mkdir -p ../prof_data
g++ -O2 -fforce-mem -fomit-frame-pointer -march=i686   -Wall   -c -o ../build/ar

When you get "missing file <strstream.h>", in my way of thinking ... that's the root problem and everything which follows is caused by it.

Find the file. Make sure that g++ can find the file.

ok ive found where the strstream.h is suposed to be and i dont have a strstream.h file but ive got one called strstream now ive found a strstream.h file on the internet but when i put this in the right direcotory i get this error

now i do realease that useing any old strstream.h was probley a bad idea and i think the error is due to this so is there a way of configureing my own
