Upbge: SOLVED: Unable to compile UPBGE in Ubuntu 14.04.

[chicortiz]

Hello UPBGE team!

I have followed the instructions bellow and and I got some compilation errors. I'm using Ubuntu 14.04.

#

Compile from source :

First, download our git repository.
git clone https://github.com/UPBGE/blender && cd blender

Then, install dependencies :
./build_files/build_environment/install_deps.sh

Compile :
make

Then, run :
cd ../build_linux
./blender

#

Here is the full log if you want to check it out:

If you need additional details don't hesitate in asking. :)

Greetings,

Ortiz

Hello,

I could not reproduce the compile error with BBPlayer enabled, could you provide your build_linux/CMakeCache.txt file please ?

Else you can disable the option WITH_GAMEENGINE_PPLAYER by running ccmake . or an other cmake gui in build_linux directory.

[lordloki]

Could you update to last master commit and compile again?
I have committed a possible fix

[chicortiz]

Hello @panzergame, Thank you again. Here is my CMakeCache.txt: https://pastebin.com/02nJd7Rp

In which text the WITH_GAMEENGINE_PPLAYER is located? I need to comment or erase this option?
I'm really sorry to be such a noob regarding compiling Blender. (‘-’*)

@lordloki Thank you!

I'm sorry I don't know how to overwrite the Blender UPBGE folder. Could you help me?
git clone https://github.com/UPBGE/blender && cd blender
Gave me this: fatal: destination path 'blender' already exists and is not an empty directory.

EDIT: Allright. I simply deleted the older folders. Then I executed this commands again:

---

First, download our git repository.
git clone https://github.com/UPBGE/blender && cd blender

Then, install dependencies :
./build_files/build_environment/install_deps.sh

Compile :
make

Then, run :
cd ../build_linux
./blender.

---

But Blender did not compiled again. So I decided to delete the files again because I could not copy the whole log since it was to long and the terminal removed part of the registered processes. But I can't do that because (for some reason) now I have a locked blender file and I don't know how to change it's permissions yet. So here is the partial log that I have at the moment:

https://pastebin.com/y0LzdUcm

EDIT 2: Allright. That fixed my home directory permissions: sudo chown -R $USER: $HOME
Now I can return to the compilation game :)

[lordloki]

The error comes from your compiler doesn't support C++11 features by default.
Possible solution:

• You have to set on enabling WITH_C++11 on CMake (using cmake gui i.e.)

[chicortiz]

Hi @lordloki ! I now installed CMake from source.
Do you think that Code::Blocks will do it as the graphic user interface?
I don't know where to start. How should I open the project inside Code Blocks? And what is "WITH C++11"? Is ita a... "Flag"?

EDIT 1:
Mmmm... https://cmake.org/runningcmake/

Are you suggesting me to use ccmake by any chance? Does I need to use ccmake in conjunction with the UPGE folder? If so how does the command would look like? Something like... ./ccmake make WITH_C++11?

[organicpencil]

I'm on gcc 5.3 and this makes it work:

1. Run ccmake . in the build folder (the one with CMakeCache.txt)
2. Hit "t" for advanced mode
3. Find WITH_CXX11 and toggle ON
4. Configure/generate
5. make -j4 && make install

Afaik this is required unless you have gcc 6.0 or newer.

[chicortiz]

Thank you @pqftgs ! I think I'm progressing.

After following your instructions now I'm stuck here:

Do you know any workaround? :)

Tried a simple "make" (inside build_linux) that lead me to:

[panzergame]

Irrc i get this issue on the builbot because of an older gcc version, @chicortiz : Could you try an higher version, 6.3 or so ?

[panzergame]

gcc 5x should be enought.

[chicortiz]

@panzergame : Sure thing panzergame! I was suspicious of this gcc version. I will update and try again soon.

Here is how I'm proceeding at the moment (critics are VERY welcome):

1) Deleted the old folders (blender and build_linux).
2) git clone https://github.com/UPBGE/blender && cd blender
3) ./build_files/build_environment/install_deps.sh
4) make
4.1) Error
5) Run ccmake . in the build folder (the one with CMakeCache.txt)
6) Hit "t" for advanced mode
7) Find WITH_CXX11 and toggle ON
8) Configure/generate
make -j4 && make install

Forgive me mine "bulldozer" kind of logic. In the end I'm a redneck.
It's even an insult to name that as logic.
xD
