openxcom wii ?

[sergioreynel]

Has anyone tried to port openxcom to wii since I think its made with sdl and I found this https://wiibrew.org/wiki/SDL_Wii   

 

also star control 2 has been ported to wii and it uses sdl https://wiibrew.org/wiki/The_Ur-Quan_Masters

[sergioreynel]

so no comments

[volutar]

I guess. There are no people here interested in that and having skills in WII homebrew development. I don't know if it's possible since wii has too few memory.

Well, I'm trying.
Found sources and compile SDL library for wii.
Found sources and compile libyaml-cpp for wii

Set the environ for run configure:

export SDL_LIBS="-lSDL_net -lSDL_ttf -lSDL_gfx -lSDL_mixer -lSDL_image -lsmpeg -lSDL -ljpeg -lpng -lfreetype -lvorbisidec -lz -lfat -lwiiuse -lbte -lwiikeyboard -logc -lm"
export SDL_CFLAGS="-I/C/devkitPro/libogc/include/SDL -D__WII__"

export YAML_LIBS="-lyaml-cpp"
export YAML_CFLAGS="-std=gnu++11 -I/C/devkitPro/libogc/include"

and run it:

configure --host=powerpc-eabi

Then: now I have the Makefile, but when I run make I have this (first) error.

I think that something is missing in my environ.
I'm a C programmer, not a C++ programmer, and now I need a BIG help to continue...

In this case, floor is just the basic floor() function from the standard library, so a #include <math.h> should solve this one error. But you may find many other problems...

[winterheart]

Do you use yaml-cpp from git HEAD? If so, you forced to compile openxcom with c++11 features. Currently openxcom source code is not ready to it. These error can be easly fixed in code (I even have local branch for it), but i'm not sure for backward compatibility. If you like, I can provide my branch for testing.

[Yankes]

He already doing that.

Overall yaml-cpp purge lot of unused headers from it source code causing breaking OXC because many files depend on yaml headers to include it. Simply adding `#include <math.h>` or `#include <algorithm>` should fix most of this errors.

[ps]
wrong header name: "algorithm" without "s".

Perfect!
Include <math.h> solve the error.
Now I've some problems with missing SDL header files...

Then probably `SDL_CFLAGS` is not used by build script. I would suggest to place this value manually to script. In long run it isn't proper solution but it could save you lot of time in fighting with strange error caused by not properly configured environment.

Another casue could be that headers and nested deeper in directory (like `/SDL/SDL/` or something like that).

Not so easy 
Problem was OpenGL headers needed by SDL.
I found this https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Gl2gx, compile (there was few errors, "Development is currently on hold until a new maintainer is found") then I install it in my environ.

Now, build stops with the error in the attached file.

[Yankes]

add `#include <algorithm>`.

[nebiun]

add `#include <algorithm>`.

Done.
Same problem in 2 other sources.
And we have complete the Basescape folder

An after a cast problem solved by myself:

src/Battlescape/BattlescapeGenerator.cpp: In member function 'void OpenXcom::Bat
tlescapeGenerator::loadRMP(OpenXcom::MapBlock*, int, int, int)':
src/Battlescape/BattlescapeGenerator.cpp:1672:30: error: comparison between sign
ed and unsigned integer expressions [-Werror=sign-compare]
      if (*k - (int)nodeOffset == *i)
                              ^
This is the next:

src/Battlescape/DebriefingState.cpp: In member function 'void OpenXcom::Debriefi
ngState::prepareDebriefing()':
src/Battlescape/DebriefingState.cpp:863:5: error: 'for_each' is not a member of

d(),

Solved with google:
added #include <algorithm>   

[Yankes]

This is still error caused by lack of algorithms header: https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/algorithm/for_each
You should add this two headers (math too) until you get error that is not fix by this change.
Another suggestion is reduce error level in compiler. Right now I see that you have makefile with very aggressive setting (-Werror) that probably will not allow compiling OXC. In long run all this warnings should be fixed but is not your job to do this. Ignore it and try get AFAP working binary.

Thanks for the tip.

But now I have a big problem: no execinfo.h and no *backtrace* function in devKitPro environ.
Must i stub them?
