Is there a possibility to compile PokerTH under Windows with an open source IDE?

For example: http://qdevelop.org/

I have not done this yet. I suppose it would fail, because currently there is no support for the MinGW compiler (due to missing data structures in the mingw headers).

Anyway, I will make this work sometime, it's just that it takes an awful lot of time to compile qt and boost and stuff with mingw, and I lack the motivation...

You can compile PokerTH using mingw now (as of svn rev. 766).

Grab the mingw installer
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435&package_id=240780

and get a copy of the "candidate" of mingw. Install the C++ compiler, and don't forget mingw-make.

Compile qt 4.3.1 and boost 1.34 using mingw. Make sure boost installs the libraries to the boost/stage subdirectory.

In boost/stage/lib, rename boost_thread-mgw34-mt-1_34_1.a to libboost_thread-mgw34-mt-1_34_1.a. This is because the DLL-Version of libboost_thread is required for PokerTH with mingw, if you try to use the other version, there will be a linker error.

Grab the precompiled SDL for mingw http://www.libsdl.org/release/SDL-devel-1.2.12-mingw32.tar.gz

and the precompiled SDL_mixer for VC http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_mixer/release/SDL_mixer-devel-1.2.8-VC8.zip

Check all paths for the libs (see pokerth_game.pro).

qmake
mingw32-make

and you are done.

Oh and by the way, this takes an awful lot of time, so make sure you have a TV or something around .

Ok, thx lotodore. I will try it.

For your information: The current svn revision requires qt 4.3.1. I've updated the upper instructions.

After making boost, i dont'have the boost/stage subdirectory

May be i dont make it correctly ?
