Build options for rebuilding modules.
BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Beginners Area/Build options for rebuilding modules.
| ||
| What build options should be set for building/rebuilding the modules? |
| ||
| I believe none. Blitzmax automatically compiles a release and debug version of a module. |
| ||
| Rebuilding modules uses MinGW, not the Blitzmax compiler. Or did you mean something else? |
| ||
| True. But rebuilding the modules from MaxIDE (which was what I meant) makes sure a debug and release version of the module gets compiled. |
| ||
| Rebuilding modules uses MinGW, not the Blitzmax compiler. /me slaps Gfk with a mystical orb. |
| ||
| Rebuilding modules uses MinGW, not the Blitzmax compiler. It uses both, surely? Vast chunks of the modules are written in BlitzMax, so you can't compile them only with MinGW. (?) As Htbaa says, you need both a debug and release build, and by default that's what you get. The other compiler options don't apply to a module. In short, if you're doing it from the IDE, you don't need to worry about settings. If you're doing it from the command line, you need to compile a debug build and a release build. Which I guess is -d and -r. But I think you're probably doing it from the IDE. |

| Okay great, I installed the maxgui module and did a 'rebuild all modules' from the ide before i realized I had debug build checked. |

| For calling bmk (from the command line), here's what the user guide says: Makemods The makemods operation builds a set of modules. Makemods takes one optional argument: a module filter. This can be a module scope name (to build a subset of modules) or a fully qualified module name (to build an individual module). If the module filter is omitted, than all module are built. Valid options for makemods are: Option Effect -d Build debug version. By default, both debug and release versions are built. -r Build release version. By default, both debug and release versions are built. -a Build all modules regardless of timestamps. By default, only modules that have been modified are built. Some examples of makemods in action: bmk makemods mymods bmk makemods -a mymods.testmod In addition, there are some undocumented ones that you can find out by studying at bmk source. For example, I think -g (target architecture - x86 or ppc) is for both makeapp and makemods. |
