[Solved] Building 8.4 on Linux problems

Sorry I can't 100% confirm this. I'm not on windows myself.

The search order when an extension is not specified is ; .COM,.EXE,.BAT and .CMD. Though this can be customised on a per-system basis.

Presuming there is never a dftables.com, dftables.bat or dftables.cmd then all should work fine.

I've tested with dftables (without .exe) on MinGW and MSVC 2013 and it worked just fine

Removed the workaround for win32. Thanks timotei.

Hi All, Well here goes by first post.
I'm building on Ubuntu 14.04. using clang 3.3 with LLVMs libc++ and libc++abi libraries. I currently have a working directory on on v0-8 @ rev:5471 I'm attempting to build with OGRE v2-0 @ rev 6562 this version is stable and runs I don't get core dumps on exit or when running samples. I am still learning how these two code sets work. I would be greatful if anyone can shed light on the following compilation issue I'm having.

There are two warnings (both in the same file) relating to C linkage: example is getWindowRendererFactoryModule(). clang gives;
cegui/include/CEGUI/WindowRendererSets/Core/Module.h:45:37: warning: 'getWindowRendererFactoryModule' has C-linkage specified, but returns user-defined type 'CEGUI::FactoryModule &' which is incompatible with C [-Wreturn-type-c-linkage] - I don't like ignoring warnings.

I also have compilation errors relating to OGRE objects. Should I expect to be able to compile these code sets currently, I've not had a great deal of success so far. mostly due to lack of knowledge of these programs I think.
I'm going to have another go compiling with default @ rev 5478.

Thanks for reading hope it makes sense.

Hi Ray. Please open a new thread, your issues seem entirely unrelated to the one discussed in this thread. Feel free to copy paste your post into the new thread.

If you make a new thread please explain what you mean by "code set", also you mention "these programs" - which programs? And you said v0-8 with ogre v2-0 works but then you went on to say that you get compilation errors. Sorry I really can't follow what you are saying.

thanks. I will move it and correct it.
