getting access violations.

When i extracted my dependencies I got a dependency folder. and from what I read you just copy it over the existing one?

I did some searching for that lib and its in

..\yake\dependencies\boost\stage\lib

when i added this to my search folders I'm back to here

Oh the agony...


.. when i build my libraries shoudl I have built in release mode as well as debug is is that neither here nor there?

Please attach the .vcproj for your project to this thread.
(When replying open up "Additional Options..." below the edit box and use "Attach" to attach a file.)

[ulao]

ok here ya go this is the most recent I did with a new project name. I still get the errors above.

my directory structure is now  D:\game dev stuff\yake\yake\  {[ all yake files live here ]}, I created my own project folder on that directory.


Off Topic, is the and the neoAxis bunny   related? Do they share the same father, - Oh bad thought ..

[psyclonist]

ok here ya go this is the most recent I did with a new project name. I still get the errors above.

You've defined YAKE_BASE_EXPORTS. This should only ever be defined by the base.vcproj project itself.

If YAKE_BASE_EXPORTS is defined then instead of dllimport a dllexport will be used which results in the unresolved externals you're observing.

Do they share the same father,

I doubt it. The 'psyclonist' avatar image I got with permission of the original artist way before the birth of NeoAxis. It depicts Max from Sam & Max by Steve Purcell. And I've no relation to NeoAxis whatsoever. Still, I can see that the 'inverted colours' scheme looks similar. But I can't read the mind(s) of the NeoAxis author(s).

- haha ok.... Well actually the in game bunny is white.

- rememebr i copied from samples.. I have no idea what setting to use, there is no documentation to even tell me what type of project to use.

So I removed that line and did a clean , rebuild , with the same results. You are referring to the preprocessor definistion.

[psyclonist]

- In VC++ create an empty C++ program, make sure that you use the multi-threaded DLL target.
- Include yake headers
- Link to yake libraries

That's pretty much it.

So I removed that line and did a clean , rebuild , with the same results. You are referring to the preprocessor definistion.

Yes, you've to remove this define from the preprocessor definition list of your <name>.vcproj.

If you've copied that from a sample, please tell me which one because it's definitely wrong.

[ulao]

Ok let me try a new project.

If you've copied that from a sample, please tell me which one because it's definitely wrong.

From the samples the build.cmd made.


- In VC++ create an empty C++ program, (32 console app, blank project ?) make sure that you use the multi-threaded DLL target. - Is (  multi-threaded debug DLL)  ok .I dont see any target option.
- Include yake headers
- Link to yake libraries

[ulao]

Ok this is interesting I fi choose multi-thread MDd I get all the external errors. If i choose  multi-thread MTd  I get "LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libboost_thread-vc80-mt-sgd-1_33_1.lib'" ?

I dont have a 'libboost_thread-vc80-mt-sgd-1_33_1.lib I have a 'libboost_thread-vc80-mt-gd-1_33_1.lib

This is as expected. You *have* to choose the "multi-threaded DLL" variant as all dependencies and Yake itself is build with this option.

[ulao]

- That fine with me, but "multi-threaded DLL" gives me the externals problem, just as I get with the debug?

Does anything need to be in for "additional dependencies". I have the lib folders in for  additional library directories, but nothing for additional dependencies.

attached latest vcproj file.

here is my confi.h if that helps.

Code:

// This file is auto-generated. Do not modify manually.

#ifndef YAKE_CONFIG_H
#define YAKE_CONFIG_H

#define YAKE_DEBUG_DLL_SUFFIX "_d"
#define YAKE_LIBFILE_PREFIX "yake_"

This is out of date yes? -> http://www.yake.org/wiki/doku.php/quickstart:setting_up_an_application_on_pc_windows_with_vc_8_2005

because i dont have any OgrePlugins

This is *not* what gives you the "unresolved externals". Remove YAKE_BASE_EXPORTS from your project's preprocessor definitions!

[ulao]

This is *not* what gives you the "unresolved externals". Remove YAKE_BASE_EXPORTS from your project's preprocessor definitions!

- Why would you think I have not done that, I of course took you suggestion as I sated in post 34 ? Did I miss understand something?

"So I removed that line and did a clean , rebuild , with the same results. " was a statement not a question.
"You are referring to the preprocessor definition. " was meant to be a question (sorry for the confusion)


Please I'm extremely interest in yake, I dont typically have issues with game engines this is just a unusual case. Post 39 is my current status.

my preprocessor definitions is set to    WIN32;_DEBUG;_CONSOLE  runtime set to "multi-threaded DLL"  just as you asked.

Just a misunderstanding, I think. Sorry if I sounded rude but I did not intend to. I'm not a native speaker but try to be as clear as possible, and friendly, of course.

my preprocessor definitions is set to    WIN32;_DEBUG;_CONSOLE  runtime set to "multi-threaded DLL"  just as you asked.

For the 'Debug' build target the runtime should be set to the Debug variants, i.e. "multi-threaded Debug DLL".

Still, the fact that you get unresolved externals for Yake's base lib (yake_base.lib in release mode, yake_base_d.lib in debug mode) is a strong indication that either your project's build settings are incorrect or that you failed to build Yake correctly on your machine.

How big is your project (.vcproj + .h + .cpp) ?  Is it just a plain C++ application with Yake?
If yes and if like to, you could send it to me, e.g. via E-Mail, and I can have a look.

Alternatively, we can also do a "remote support" session.

- thx for clearing the air on that one..

For the 'Debug' build target the runtime should be set to the Debug variants, i.e. "multi-threaded Debug DLL".

- I tried that, it give me the same results.

Still, the fact that you get unresolved externals for Yake's base lib (yake_base.lib in release mode, yake_base_d.lib in debug mode) is a strong indication that either your project's build settings are incorrect or that you failed to build Yake correctly on your machine.

Yake correctly on your machine, has to be the reason. But its a no brainier right? Make confi.h, run the cmd with premake, build all?

"remote support" session. is not an option at the moment, as i'm remote in the my box from work LOL..

ill zip up the files and email them to you.

Oh and in case you wonder, I moved my release to lib/release debug to lib/debug.

Sent a couple PM's did you discover anything?
