Module Build Failure?
BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Programming/Module Build Failure?
| ||
| I tried to install FOD and as part of the step you have to rebuild the modules. However, I get the following error: Building Modules Compiling:blitz_app.c Build Error: failed to compile C:/Program Files/BlitzMax/mod/brl.mod/blitz.mod/blitz_app.c Process complete Not sure if this relates to FMod or another module? |
| ||
| Also, the rebuild all modules button is greyed out? PC version not MAC. |
| ||
| You have to install MingW and adjust the pathes correctly. You can't build modules without it |
| ||
| Ok, so I installed MingW and rebooted. What do I do now? The rebuild all modules is still greyed out? |
| ||
| Have you looked at Marks guide? http://www.blitzmax.com/Community/posts.php?topic=53442 In particular the setting of the environment variable and path. |
| ||
| Jim, I added C:\MinGW\mingw32\bin to the path variable? Your link above appears to be broken or it doesn't seem to think that I am logged in? I am logged into the site? Very strang! Can someone tell me what is at this post? |

| Hi Sean, Make sure you're using version 3.1 of MinGW as the newer version 4 doesn't like BlitzMax. As well as adding MinGW to your path you have to also setup a new user variable by clicking the new button when in environment variables. Give a a name and add "MinGW" and for it's value add the path to MinGW eg. C:\MinGW. That should allow you to build modules properly and should make the options available in the IDE instead of them being greyed out. Hope that helps. :) |

| Before I started I uninstalled BlitzMax rebooted and removed all files in "C:\Program Files\BlitzMax". Then I installed BlitzMax 1.14. The following is my config so far: MinGW version is "MinGW-3.1.0-1.exe" MinGW is installed at "C:\MinGW" MinGW bin is installed at "C:\MinGW\bin" Path is "%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\BINN;C:\Program Files\ATI Technologies\ATI Control Panel;C:\Program Files\Common Files\SurfStats;C:\Program Files\Surfstats8000\;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VFP;C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\;C:\MinGW\bin;" Added the additoinal user enviromental variable: Variable Name: "MinGW" Variable Value: "C:\MinGW" The options are greyed out! I can press control D but it fails with the following: Building Modules Compiling:stdc.c Build Error: failed to compile C:/Program Files/BlitzMax/mod/pub.mod/stdc.mod/stdc.c Process complete Please note that I also have environment variables for Visual Studio? Help |

| Rebooted aftre all not and I have the same problem. Not! The problem is gone! Cool! |
| ||
| Variable Name: "MingW" Variable Value: "C:\MingW\bin" This should work VS Env Variables are unimportant as not read by BM. It only uses GCC |
| ||
| I don't think I going to add the \bin to the end! It works now and that is the way I like it! I couple of post refered to the base bath not the bin so I not sure which is right? |
