Precompiled binaries

[Andrew80k]

I was able to get it to compile by modifying some code, but since I did that I want to test it a bit more than normal. I run my test server on linux but I do have an older set up on my laptop that I use to build the binaries. I'll have to some updating to get it going again so it might be a few days before I get an idea if the changes I made are going to work or not. I did use perl 5.14 and mysql 5.1.

Hiya!

If you can get the source to compile with c++ 2008 or vs2010 AND using ActivePerl 5.14.x, would you please post a link to download the compiled binaries?

If you would be so kind, maybe post a quick guide with the steps for compiling with ActivePerl 5.14.x (and using MySQL 5.1 or better) with either C++ program (2008 or 2010).

I know it would be much appreciated. I have been driving myself nuts trying to figure it out but then I am quite the noob at compiling. I am trying to learn how to do this myself so I can compile my own later on. I find it all so fascinating and frustrating at the same time.

Thank you Very much for all the support.

Here is the wiki page for compiling:

http://www.eqemulator.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=VS2008

That doesn't cover 2010 or the newer perl version, but it should be basically the same thing other than using the Server10.sln to do the compile for VS2010.

I was able to compile with the Sever9, ActivePerl-5.14.2.1402-MSWin32-x86-295342, and VS2010 and got no errors! I am using a Windows 7/64 PC but using the 32bit versions of ActivePerl and MySQL Server 5.1 essentials.

This was encouraging so, I sourced the db and got the maps and quests from svn, copied over the required files and started up the server.

I got a fatal error at the point in zone.exe where it loads the pearl commands. I will try compiling from the server10 project instead.

First, some sleep! TY
