Openbor runtime debugging

[evasyar]

Hello C programmers of Openbor,

How are you all setting up a run-time debugging for Openbor? What have been an IDE/RAD of choice for you guys to setup a debug sandbox for it?  Anyone setup Openbor in Code::Blocks IDE ?

I am setting up debugging for Openbor in Code::Blocks using MinGW as its default compiler but running into some challenges doing it in a way as to not break what seem to be conventions already put in place as to how the source files are organized for a build of Openbor currently.

Thanks in advance,
Ray

To be perfectly honest, I've never been able to successfully compile OpenBOR in a development environment. I know it's really hacky, but I just haven't been willing to risk breaking anything with the libraries and so just debug by trial and error.

Hi DC, thanks and looks to be I am nearly there.

It does look like it already has a codeblocks project (.cbp) file already part of you active source.
I load it by pointing the IDE to this path here .\openbor\trunk\engine\codeblocks\OpenBOR.Windows.cbp
at first glance, it looks like the right source, what do you think? Anyways, still trying to rebuild but as you can see from the pic there are some errors I have to track down.
That Openbor.Windows.cbp? It is not deprecated, is it?

Thanks in advance,
Ray
