hi ! this a thread for nice members of the community continuying maintenance of branch of allegro 4
I have a special request, fighting as usual with dependencies and so on.

Actually my project is based on OpenLayer, allegro 4.2 and was on minw32 gcc3.4.2
Its now 3 years i m developping it, so i m quite somehow blocked to a certain level: i m not a boy who love to deal with libraries and internals. I prefer to use them and dont know how to hack them.

i finally changed of compilator ( TDM GCC 6.4.1) but i have some troubles to avoid to use the 4.2.2 devpak to make full usage of allegro 4.4

Does anybody could release a compiled version for mingw 6.4.1 ? is it possible to have it in devpak ? will it feet with OpenLayer ?

woaw, what a question ;-)

I m compiling ok with this output:

Execution terminated
Compilation successful

i have installed the TDM-GCC mingw wich works in fact. i had to let default compiler of dev cpp in default, to use it with make. make in TDM-GCC is called mingw32-make and doent appear for dev cpp.

devpak: i know its possible to do it , but i m helas not enough good in interns of code to arrive to do it :-(

MERCI a lot !!!! ;-)

not at all.
i m using allegro only for putpixel / spline maths and draw / timers / backamnesia / keyboard and mouse. and surely allegro gl for OpenLayer

wow... thanks a lot lenny !
any tutorial on how to do the all process would be very nice !!!
have a nice night ;-)

Woaw! Will test it tomorrow!
Many many thanks! ;-)
About tutorial in fact i font know the basison how to recompile allegro from sources :-(

hum... devpak dont want to be installed, i will try an unzip

hi, i m on dev cpp 5.0.0.1 Orwell maintaining, but will go backward to 4.9.3 ;-)
i give you feedback as soon as possible ;-)
thanks a lot lenny

[EDIT]: ok gone back to original dev cpp, devpak works. many thanks lenny. its great. unfortunately i m fighting now with Open Layer wich isnt like by mingw 641 ! i will post another thread bout it. i had to downgrade gcc to 3.4.5 version, as many things are not accepted in openlayer libray by mingw 4.6

thanks a lot
