Dynablaster Revenge - Challenge to install on archlinux

kamelie1706 · 2020-02-15 16:27:57

Hi,

I think this is one of the best active version reminding me atomic bomberman!
The project is maintained in git hub here
https://github.com/varnholt/dynablaster_revenge
... which require jmon to compile

I could not find a jmon package for arch, so I went trying compiling it from the project git
https://wiki.qt.io/Jom
git clone git://code.qt.io/qt-labs/jom.git
qmake -r

 
Reading /home/cyril/src/jom/src/app/app.pro
Reading /home/cyril/src/jom/src/jomlib/jomlib.pro
Project MESSAGE: Can't locate path to MSYS. This is needed for flex.
Reading /home/cyril/src/jom/tests/tests.pro

does not look good ... and on the top of that could not find arch package for nmake

There used to be an AUR package
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dynablaster-revenge/
... but not there anymore
I am wondering if the whole challenge was why the package maintainer give up ...

I am willing to learn & maintain an AUR package just for this game :-D ... but first I need to find a way to install from the official project git!
Anyone interested?

jom is a clone of nmake to support the execution of multiple independent commands in parallel. It basically adds the -j command line switch similar to GNU make.

Nmake appears to be a replacement for gnu make on systems running MS windows .
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/bu … ew=vs-2019

I doubt jom is needed on linux , just try to build with make :

qmake-qt5
make

Yep I figure it out ... I am now trying to compile jom with make

cd src/jomlib/ && ( test -e Makefile || /usr/bin/qmake -o Makefile /home/cyril/src/jom/src/jomlib/jomlib.pro ) && make -f Makefile

make: *** [Makefile:74: sub-src-jomlib-make_first] Error 2

no jom package for arch? I do not have a qt dev environment set, I am wondering what I need just for compiling. jom seems a basic compiling step in qt ... if I believe the jom page.

If I believe this
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/411 … x/41111183

It means jom is targetted to windows .... thinking I am going to the total wrong direction!

I will try to compile the dynablaster without jmon ...
make returns

need to find QApplication .... or set my compiling environment

/usr/include/qt/QtWidgets

QApplication

I went one step more by adding

QT += gui widgets

to my generated pro file

Thx
https://vitux.com/compiling-your-first- … in-ubuntu/

Now my pro file looks like

TEMPLATE = app
TARGET = dynablaster_revenge
INCLUDEPATH += . \
                ./ai \
                ./shared \
                ./client \
                ./server \
                ./linux
QT += gui widgets network core

make progress but get stuck to qInstallMSgHandler

server/src/servermain.cpp: In function 'int main(int, char**)':
server/src/servermain.cpp:78:7: error: 'qInstallMsgHandler' was not declared in this scope; did you mean 'qInstallMessageHandler'?
   78 |       qInstallMsgHandler(debugHandler);
      |       ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      |       qInstallMessageHandler
make: *** [Makefile:4229: servermain.o] Error 1

which seems depreciated in QT 5
https://wiki.qt.io/Transition_from_Qt_4 … deprecated

A lot of warning related to deprecated so I guess the code is mostly still maintained around QT4 .....

Partly "VICTORY"!
At least I can compile the client and play alone against some computers
qmake
make

strange as "ai" directory does not compile ...
Server still challenging
