Hello,

I seem to be missing libCEGUIBase.a, after configuring the build using:

I'm not entirely sure why this is the case. I have all other .a files by doing this. What other information would help solve this problem?
This is version 0.7.2. I'm not entirely familiar with compiling source into static libraries, so please let me know if I'm doing this wrong.

Thanks!

Bump? Does this work for others? If so I will assume it's 'Just Me'.. :[

This is the first time I saw this post!

You appear to be doing things correctly, I'm not sure why it should not work - I assume there are no errors or warnings output regarding the build? I will make some attempt to test the build myself later today, though I can't promise that I'll actually get around to it

I have to ask if there is any compelling reason you're using 0.7.2 as opposed to 0.7.5 (assuming that's still the case)?

I tested this, and the lib was created fine for me (and the sample apps produced ran fine). I used the following configure invocation on the current code from stable v0-7 branch:

i.e I did not put the =yes nor set CPPFLAGS, it should not really matter, but I guess it's possible that these differences are significant.

I did not, however, run 'make install'. Maybe the issue lies there, but I do not think so, since whether to produce .so or .a is basically under the control of libtool here, so I don't know what else to suggest at the moment.

Thanks for the reply!

I don't recall at this point what my motivation was for using 0.7.2, so I've moved to 0.7.5 and the problem is gone.

Before doing so, I did try re-configuring/compiling/installing 0.7.2 with various sets of options. I tried

to no avail. I had the same problem (all the other .a's, but no libCEGUIBase.a). Non-static libraries were all there.

At this point I'm just going to chalk it up to mysterious time-space anomalies and enjoy my shiny new 0.7.5.. I haven't seen anyone else with this problem so I'm not sure it's worth looking into.
