ENet installation and setup

TeaRDoWN

I'm trying to get ENet up and running with my A5 project but when following the instructions on the ENet website (http://enet.bespin.org) I get a bunch of errors.

FYI: I'm using Visual C++ 2008 v9 SP1.

I've downloaded the source files from that website.
I've opened the ENet project and built it without errors.
I've copied the enet.lib into the lib directory under VC9.
I've copied the include directory from ENet source directory to a directory under VC9.
I've added "ws2_32.lib" and "winmm.lib" to the project's linker under properties.
I've added the include line #include <enet/enet.h> to my project.

When I build I get following errors:

Anyone know how to solve it? Have I missed any step in the installations? Is there something else I need to do to get it to build properly?

You may also have to #include enet before or after Allegro maybe... are you using include guards or #pragma once ? The compiler says you are redefining winsock so that's why.

Actually no. Missed that this time (just redid the whole installation process). But after adding the "enet.lib" to the linker I get the same errors in the log.

EDIT: Wow, seem to have found the cause...I think.
#include <enet/enet.h> needs to be above the #include <allegro5/allegro.h>.
Now I get no errors when building.

jmasterx

Great

Thanks for "all" the help!

Funny thing that, problems tend to solve themselves as soon as you show them to other people.

That's pretty common, can't say how many times I've started a new topic, and before hitting post I figure out the problem myself.

With Allegro 4, I always used this:

#include <allegro.h>
#define _WINSOCKAPI_
#include <winalleg.h>
#include <winsock2.h>
#include <enet/enet.h> 

You might be able to apply the same sort of thing with Allegro 5 if you don't like including enet first. (I'm sure it's just a problem with conflicting or duplicate winsock APIs.)
