Somebody need a bit of help with c++ / javascript stuff? |

awesome. I was just heading out to the 26oo meet but I can postpone going for a bit. |
|
00:44
🔗
|
bai |
nah if you're heading out, go for it - we should really organize some of these thoughts so we can share and collaborate better, explaining them on irc for each person who wants to have a crack at it gets rough :D |
|
00:44
🔗
|
bai |
it's a tricky problem with a lot of run-up knowledge |
|
00:44
🔗
|
SketchCow |
Yeah, just idle here and we'll work on that doc. |
|
00:44
🔗
|
SketchCow |
bai: Should I start it or you |
|
00:44
🔗
|
A_Scanner |
Google docs sound pretty good. |
|
00:45
🔗
|
bai |
go ahead and start it and do the quick overview, and I'll fill in the details when I get a chance |
|

|
A_Scanner |
I've got 12/ish years experience in programming and I like challenges. I learned with C++ but haven't dipped into it as much as I'd like. I'm good at gnarly problems tho/ |
|
00:46
🔗
|
bai |
how's your JS? |
|
00:46
🔗
|
A_Scanner |
so anyways, I'll idle and be back on later. I can get in real deep shit with JS. |
|
00:46
🔗
|
bai |
this is one of those weird problems that spans both worlds |
|
00:46
🔗
|

So... stupid question what OS/platform and version do you you use for mame? IE.. what type of vm should I use to compile mame and is there a preferred branch/revision etc that I should use as source? |
|
04:56

|

I take it http://www.mess.org/compiling_mess is up to date? I'll get that set up in the morning. |
|
04:58
🔗
|
bai |
A_Scanner: I normally use a linux system to compile, ubuntu is my personal preference but whatever you're most familiar with, as long as it's new enough, should work |
|
04:58
🔗
|
A_Scanner |
bai: cool. I'll just pop a vm up just for this to keep things neat and tidy. |
|
04:59
🔗
|
bai |
the compile instructions for the web version are a bit different - those instructions are for building a native build |
|
05:00
🔗
|
bai |
but you probably want to go through that process once first anyway just to make sure you get all the prerequisites to building |
|
05:00
🔗
|
A_Scanner |
Ok cool. Is the web stuff documented someplace? |
|
05:00
🔗
|
bai |
plus you need a native build to get information to build the stripped-down web builds, anyway |
|
05:01
🔗
|
bai |
let me see if I can find official docs. we used to have a complicated custom build process, but now it's been built in to MAME's normal build process |
|
05:02

|

right-O! Yay, checkpoint to make progress. I've got to get some sleep for a while but I'll work on this midmorning. |

Been compiling for a while. of course needed a few packages to fully compile and as usual... it's an iterative process. I'm currently compiling mame itself. |
