Building ScummVM Tools on Linux

Post by oxygene »

Hello,

i recently downloaded the last Package from ScummVM. I compiled it under Ubuntu and get without any problems a Version of ScummVM. But i don't get the Tools compiled. A File named configure is failed. How can i compile the tools on ubuntu?

Thank you very much in advance for your help

If you mean the compression tools, etc. it should be enough to simply use "make", without any prior configuration.

If you mean the "tools" directory in the ScummVM source code, I don't remember how to do compile them properly. But it's unlikely that you have any use for them. They're mostly for regenerating data files and, occasionally, certain parts of the source code.

Hello,

i got the compression tools compiled now. but the tools_gui.cpp needs i think a version vom wxwidgets. i tryed the 2.8.0 version. but then i got error messages while compiling.

which version of wxwidgets did i need for the tools_gui files?

Why you don't post the exact error message? Wxgtk 2.8.9 works fine here.
