Hi, I would like to release commercial application based on allegro5 in the future. I have no problem to get allegro running on my Windows or Linux but I am not sure what is the proper approach when I want to ensure that the appliaction will correctly run on "all" Linux and Windows systems. So I would appreciate any advice. My current plan is to build all libraries by my self but I cannot find list of all third party dependecies of allegro library and it's modules. Is there any list like that? Thank you for the answers. |

For building the library yourself, possibly this page can help you? |

Hello archlinka, Welcome. Since Allegro's license is essentially freeware, you can do whatever you want with it. That said, my guide to building Allegro 5 on Windows with MinGW-W64 is a great way to start for Windows. For Linux, I will just say right now don't bother trying to static link. Use ldd to get a list of library dependencies, and package the .so files along with your application along with a launch script that sets the LD_LIBRARY_PATH for runtime to the path to your .so files.
