- Removed the do_oasis function and called the Xedit commands directly (thanks Rhade).
- Updated idle timer to keep track of imms too (thanks Jamdog). - Standardized OLC messages. - Removed special procedures that were replaced with trigedit. - Updated README.WIN, README.MSVC8, and README.CYGWIN. --Rumble

There are a number of different compilers available for Microsoft Windows
|
||||
95 and NT that can be used to compile CircleMUD. Each compiler works
|
||||
differently, so each compiler has a different set of instructions.
|
||||
|
||||

Compiling tbaMUD
|
||||
under Microsoft Windows
|
||||
|
||||
There are a number of different compilers available for Microsoft Windows that
|
||||
can be used to compile tbaMUD. Each compiler works differently, so each
|
||||
compiler has a different set of instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
We currently have instructions for using the following compilers:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Cygnus CYGWIN (Formerly Cygnus GNU-Win32). This is a FREE
|
||||
compiler for Microsoft Windows 95 and NT! If you don't own a
|
||||
compiler, you can just download this one off the net and get
|
||||
Circle up and running in no time. Read the file README.CYGWIN
|
||||
(submitted by David Goldstein <goldstei@cs.sunysb.edu>).
|
||||
Please note however that the CYGWIN system is not recommended
|
||||
for those unfamiliar with the Unix environment.
|
||||
1. Cygnus CYGWIN (Formerly Cygnus GNU-Win32). This is a FREE compiler for
|
||||
Microsoft Windows! If you don't own a compiler, you can just download this
|
||||
one off the net and get tbaMUD up and running in no time. Read the file
|
||||
README.CYGWIN.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Microsoft Visual C++ version 4.x -- read the file README.MSVC4
|
||||
2. Microsoft Visual C++ version 4.x -- read the file README.MSVC4.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Microsoft Visual C++ version 5.x -- read the file README.MSVC5
|
||||
3. Microsoft Visual C++ version 5.x -- read the file README.MSVC5.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Borland C++ -- read the file README.BORLAND
|
||||
4. Microsoft Visual C++ version 6.x -- read the file README.MSVC6.
|
||||
|
||||
5. Watcom C++ v.11 -- read the file README.WATCOM
|
||||
5. Microsoft Visual C++ version 8.x -- read the file README.MSVC8. This is
|
||||
also called Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 and the express edition is free and
|
||||
can be downloaded from Microsoft.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Borland C++ -- read the file README.BORLAND
|
||||
|
||||
It should be possible to compile CircleMUD using other compilers that are
|
||||
not listed here, or other versions of these compilers -- as long as they
|
||||
support long filenames, etc. However, we don't have instructions handy
|
||||
for those compilers. Rob's page (http://www.connect.ab.ca/~rbmstrk) has
|
||||
a lot of useful information about compiling under Windows; try looking
|
||||
there for tips.
|
||||
7. Watcom C++ v.11 -- read the file README.WATCOM
|
||||
|
||||
However, it not easy (and maybe even impossible) to compile at all
|
||||
under Windows 3.x or DOS because they lack a number of features that
|
||||
Circle requires such as the Win32 API and long filenames. It is
|
||||
theoretically possible to compile under Windows 3.x by finding 3.x API
|
||||
equivalents to the Win32 API calls, and changing all the filenames in
|
||||
the entire distribution to fit the 8.3 DOS/Win3.x filenaming standard,
|
||||
but I will never do this.
|
||||
It should be possible to compile tbaMUD using other compilers that are not
|
||||
listed here, or other versions of these compilers -- as long as they support
|
||||
long filenames, etc. However, we don't have instructions handy for those
|
||||
compilers. Feel free to submit your own.
|
||||
|
||||
Have fun!
