Error with Module
BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Module Tweaks/Error with Module
| ||
| What does it mean when it says "Compile Error" "Module does not match commandline module" |
| ||
| It means you are performing a "Build" (ctrl - B) on a module, rather than running "Build Modules" (ctrl - D). Modules will only compile when you Build Modules as the compiled output is intended to be a library (.a) file rather than an executable. HTH |
| ||
| If your module's source code line that specifies its module namespace and name (e.g., "Module Cower.LibIL") doesn't match its physical path (e.g., "cower.mod/libil.mod/libil.bmx") then you will get that error. The definition in the module source code must match that the physical path. |
| ||
| Its not the first, when I use ctrl-D, I end up with : Building Modules Compiling:win32htmlview.cpp C:/Program Files/BlitzMax/mod/brl.mod/win32maxgui.mod/win32gui/win32htmlview.cpp:41: error: redefinition of `struct IHTMLFramesCollection2' c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/3.4.2/../../../../include/mshtml.h:461: error: previous definition of `struct IHTMLFramesCollection2' C:/Program Files/BlitzMax/mod/brl.mod/win32maxgui.mod/win32gui/win32htmlview.cpp:62: error: redefinition of `struct IHTMLWindow2' c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/3.4.2/../../../../include/mshtml.h:478: error: previous definition of `struct IHTMLWindow2' Build Error: failed to compile C:/Program Files/BlitzMax/mod/brl.mod/win32maxgui.mod/win32gui/win32htmlview.cpp Process complete Which has nothing to do with my gg.mod The second I will look into, but that seems off also, since C:\Program Files\BlitzMax\mod\gg.mod\_3impact.mod Has a _3impact.bmx in that folder. In the bmx file I have: Strict Rem bbdoc: 3Impact interface lib End Rem Module gg._3Impact The problem is, the file that I am trying to use the module in, acts like the module just does not exist anywere at all. Strict Framework gg._3Impact I have even tried: Strict Module gg._3Impact Neither of which work and give the same compile error. Forgot to mention, my lib folder does contain the (a) files: libdll3impact.a libdll3impactd.a |

| Possibly? maybe? What happens when you don't specify any framework or module? What happens when you use Import? What level of MingW are you using? |
| ||
| From my post: mingw32/3.4.2/ So for Mingw, version 3.4.2, listed in the thread. As per your second suggestion, with I do not specifiy a framework or module, I get "Compile Error" "Type '_3IEngine' not found" |
| ||
| Did you make any of the changes suggested in those links? Have you tried with MinGW Did you see this ? For some reason BRL removed the MinGW recommended level and install instructions. Most of the searches on MingW have an Internal Error response but I think it pointed to 3.1.0 which is what I still use and seems to work OK. |
| ||
| MingW 3.1.0.1 is needed. Using newer GCC Versions (especially the one that comes with DevC++) does not work and will fail on compile (normally already on something_app.c) |
| ||
| Using newer GCC Versions (especially the one that comes with DevC++) does not work and will fail on compile (normally already on something_app.c) Works fine for me. |
| ||
| Here's instructions for installing MinGW v3.1.0-1. http://www.blitzbasic.com/Community/posts.php?topic=60031#669654 |
| ||
| I got MinGW 3.4.2 to compile by following the instructions to rem out the #IFNDEF sections, however, even with the modules all successfully compiled (including the _3Impact), I get the same error as that of which I got when I started this process of trying to resolve the error. So that said, I'll try to roll back my MinGW to v3.1.0-1 and compile the modules to see if the : "Compile Error" "Module does not match commandline module" Goes away or not. I still don't think that the BlitzMAX is recognizing the gg._3Impact module, and everything is in place the way it should be. |
| ||
| Any of these... One Two Three |
| ||
| None of those 3, but I have the solution now. Rules for modules that is undocumented: 1) _# is not allowed in a name, meaning your module can't have _3Impact, just by renaming it to impact.mod from _3impact.mod for the file name, then updating the impact.mod file so that it has: Module gg.impact 2) use Rebuild all modules, make sure you have a good complete compile for your module, you can still get a good complete compile with an _ in the module name, but that doesn't mean jack didley. 3) Unlike C code, in your file name strings, do not use "folder\\folder\\file", just use single "\" More details later, I will type it all up. |
| ||
| the _ is no problem. But if you read the docs carefully it is clearly stated that the first sign in a variable (and a module name is a variable as well) MUST be a character. And for files, you better use / ... that way it works on all 3 OS, not only on windows. |
| ||
| Thanks for the tip. I'll avoid _ anyway, regardless. My stuff works without it, and doesn't work with it, so I will go with the working :) |
