Help me compile Pachi GO program, please

skan · 2012-04-17, 16:02

Hello

I'm trying to compile Pachi Go game with sezero mingw64.
It's supposed to be the best free program to play GO.
Here is the latest snapshot:
http://repo.or.cz/w/pachi.git/snapshot/91ab12a2a40c4368a4d1893a37bc998b88360c5e.zip
I'm not an IT specialist and I couldn't compile it properly.

Quote:

The system cannot find the path specified.
'target' is not recognized as an internal or external command

I've tried editing the Makefile and changing the folder names, substituting pthread with lpthread and many other things.

I've also found an older precompiled version that doen't work well with my GOGUI game interface, but includes a Makefile that could be useful:
http://pachi.or.cz/pachi-d8248-win32.7z
But I couldn't compile it either, it's been created for Dev-C++.

Quote:

"please include wincock2.h"....
y * *
gcc.exe: unrecognized option '-static-libstdc++'

Could you tell me what makefile should I use, please?
The official pachi site doesn't give much support for Windows nor mingw.

thanks

Best regards

Stronger than Leela? Interesting! I'll have a look in the evening.
(I see that Jean-loup Gailly is one of the develpers. Niiice!)

You will get better response results if you would post not so frighteningly looking (potentially virally looking) URLs (yeah I can see that it is git-repo-generated). The main site reference would have been better: http://pachi.or.cz/ Anyone who can compile, can git :-)

I'm sorry, I thought it was more comfortable for other.

Sorry, I can't help you with a mingw64 build, but it builds and runs fine on x86_64.
I built the 03-30 snapshot, i.e. the same that you referenced.
Looking at makefile:

Code:

# Do you compile on Windows instead of Linux? Please note that the
# performance may not be optimal.
# (XXX: For now, only the mingw target is supported on Windows.
# Patches for others are welcome!)

# WIN=1

Hello Batalov

what compiler did you use?
The first thing I tried was uncomenting that WIN=1, but using minw64.

Weill it is an OpenSUSE 12.1 box and it has gcc version 4.6.2. All pretty standard.

Batalov, I thought you were speaking about Windows.
I know Pachi can be compiled easily in Linux because it's mainly developed for that O.S

Batalov · 2012-04-18, 23:48

No, it is my fault: I haven't paid attention to mingw64 in your original message. However, note that even the Pachi developers don't know how to build on mingw64 (as per their own admission in Makefile). Porting (is what you are essentially asking about) is 1) not easy and 2) won't likely to give good results at least initially.

You may want to run the program in a virtual machine.

Hi

I'm trying to use mingw64 because is the only free x64 windows compiler I know.

Could you please compile it in Linux but targeting x86_64 Windows binaries, please?
