BasiliskII for windows revived!

Post by **Cat_7** » Tue Nov 16, 2004 8:40 am

Hello,

I gather from the development list Gwenole has revived Basilisk II for Windows. He states it is now possible to compile BII for windows again, using Cygwin.

It now uses the latest JIT-Compiler too!

Read the message at:
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/foru ... um_id=7009

Best wishes,

did you try to build it

Post by **Cat_7** » Tue Nov 16, 2004 12:22 pm

Yep,

But it got stuck on the esd sound daemon development package and gtk+ packages.
My Cygwin installation is not the best out there...

I mailed Gwenole for instructions on how to build and what is needed exactly.
When I receive his answer, I will post it here.

Best Wishes,
Cat_7

You just need to install the esound, xwindows, and GCC compiler. It is working right now, but very slow. I think this is due to the fact that I can't figure out how to go fullscreen.[/img]

Here is my question to Gwenole, and his answer.

Cat_7:
Could you give us a small walk-through the compilation process? and define which packages should be installed on cygwin?

Gwenole:
Simply basic install + a compiler + a manual build of SDL (see www.libsdl.org for instructions).
then, ./configure --enable-jit-compiler --enable-sdl-video --enable-sdl-audio.

I don't have a sound card, someone else will have to test audio himself.

EDIT:
from BasiliskII/src/Unix run:

aclocal
autoheader
autoconf
./configure --enable-jit-compiler --enable-sdl-video --enable-sdl-audio

Best wishes

How to install SDL in Cygwin:

Step 1. Run the Cygwin setup program, install the default packages and
the development packages (adding any extras you want, like vim).
Step 2. Run the Cygwin shell. Further instructions assume you're in this shell.
Step 3. Extract the SDL source into a directory and run:
./configure && make && make install
Step 4. When you're ready to build SDL applications, copy SDL.dll from
/usr/local/lib to whereever your SDL application source resides.

From: http://libsdl.org/extras/win32/cygwin/README.txt

Cat, have you found a way to enable fullscreen?

Post by **Cat_7** » Wed Nov 17, 2004 4:26 pm

Nope,

Just compiling SDL right now and it seems to hang....

AZEnigma · Post by **AZEnigma** » Wed Nov 17, 2004 4:29 pm

If you like I can just email you the precompiled exe and sdl.dll?

Post by **Cat_7** » Wed Nov 17, 2004 4:31 pm

Nice offer,

but I would like to do it myself, just for educational purposes..
Things are going well, second time...

Cool!

After manually adding SDL and running configure, I get the following:

Do you know how to add an include path to Cygwin (Linux)?

I am trying to disable the gtk user interface as it would probably not run in windows. Haven't figured out how yet.
For now, I am going to install the net features of cygwin.

OK,

I had to copy the files in/usr/include/net from my mandrake installation to cygwin to get any further. Now I am stuck at:

In file included from ../Windows/clip_windows.cpp:35:
../include/debug.h: In function `void winbug(char*, ...)':
../include/debug.h:37: error: aggregate `_timeb tstruct' has incomplete type

for each function it appears in.)

../include/debug.h:41: error: `_strdate' undeclared (first use this function)

Oh, well. Enough for now. More later,

doing a Google search looks like "Use ftime instead of _ftime" might be required.

...

Post by **Cat_7** » Thu Nov 18, 2004 1:12 pm

EDIT: Sources of 11-21-2004 and later no longer make this step neccessary.

OK, I commented out this:

/* static void _cdecl inline winbug( char *s, ...)
{
va_list vargs;
char msg[1024], date[50], hours[50];
struct _timeb tstruct;

_ftime( &tstruct );
_strtime( hours );
_strdate( date );
sprintf( msg, "B2: %s %s:%03u ", date, hours, tstruct.millitm );

va_start( vargs, s );
vsprintf( &msg[strlen(msg)], s, vargs );
va_end( vargs );

OutputDebugString(msg);
}
*/

in include/debug.h and it compiled OK. See if it runs...

To get it to run I had to copy SDL.dll and cygwin1.dll to windows/system32
What rests is to move a hd, a config and a rom file from linux to windows...

Excellent. You will probably enounter the same problem I'm experiencing.

BasiliskII.exe
Basilisk II V1.0 by Christian Bauer et al.
ERROR: Cannot open ROM file.

The BasiliskII_prefs file exists in the same directory as BasiliskII.exe and I don't seem to have any additional prefs file created by the executable on my hard drive.

AZEnigma · Post by **AZEnigma** » Thu Nov 18, 2004 4:01 pm

I did not need to modify any code to get this to compile on my box??? I have built it with GTK and without, both work fine. The command I used to build without was --without-gtk

Of course if you do want the GUI configuration you will need to keep GTK and launch it through X.

When I ran Basilisk for the first time, it created a .basilisk_ii_prefs in my CYGWIN users home directory.

I think you guys are missing some component to cygwin.....

Post by **Cat_7** » Thu Nov 18, 2004 4:02 pm

How did you guess????

I have tried some 6 rom files, none of which are recognized by BII
So what now?

Here is my .basilisk_ii_prefs file, maybe this will help. In this config I have the harddisk file and the rom in the root of cygwin.

also note in my config that I changed frameskip to 0, per Gwenole. This has improved video significantly

Got it working. On-the-fly screen resolution and color depth changes works (cool). It seems slow though as far as the mouse responsivness. I'll play more with it.

We have to launch Basilisk II via Cygwin?

AZEnigma · Post by **AZEnigma** » Thu Nov 18, 2004 5:08 pm

As long as you did not compile with GTK, and you copy the cygwin1.dll to the same directory as the .exe you can launch it through windows like a normal application.

And put the .basilisk_ii_prefs file in the same directory as BasiliskII.exe? Thanks. :D
