Having some issues compiling latest with the commandline:

Code:

make -j9 PTR64=1 NOWERROR=1 USE_NETWORK=1 sse4=1 TOOLS=1

Code:

Compiling src/mame/drivers/mephisto.cpp...

../../../../../src/mame/drivers/mephisto.cpp:70:29: fatal error: includes/mboard.h: No such file or directory

Near the bottom:

Any ideas?

Have tried Code: make make SUBTARGET=mess tools make TARGET=mess tools make tools make SUBTARGET=mess TOOLS=1 make TARGET=mess TOOLS=1 and other things. Many of those will build mame and mess, but the tools are nowhere to be found. Or am I missing something? Using MAME/MESS v 0.170 on MSYS2 (MinGW32 under Windows XP SP3). The resulting MAME and MESS executables work. Last edited by Squash; 03/08/16 04:01 AM.

(Doing so takes a while, which is why you don't want to specify that once you've locked in an agreeable built/test/repeat cycle). make (whatever) REGENIE=1 TOOLS=1 builds the tools. A side note: the Ensoniq drivers got updated in .171 (the LCD emulation and front panel emulation was much improved for the SQ-1 and SQ-R, among other things) so if you plan to work on the SD-1 and friends it's advisable to work off of at least .171 and ideally a fresh pull from Github.

I have set up Eclipse 4.4.1 Luna to successfully build C++ projects via the MSYS2 tool chain, and I can build MAME 0.171 via MSYS2 command line. However, when trying to build MAME 0.171 in Eclipse, I basically get the wigglies on every identifier. I imported the project via File>New>Makefile Project with Existing Code, and used the makefile in the source root. Before I dig into this problem, are there any special problems with MAME on Eclipse? ("Setup Eclipse for MESS" is extremely outdated) Last edited by Squash; 03/10/16 04:23 PM.

On Windows, "make vs2015" to generate a VS2015 .sln and projects is preferred if you want an IDE.

In the project properties, select "C/C++ general", then "Preprocessor Include Paths". Go to "Providers", select "CDT GCC Built-in Compiler Settings MinGW" and add " -std=c++14" to the command line. Then rebuild the index a few times.
