Can't build the main Inform 7 project #54

BuildDate is probably failing as the build instructions don't include getting the main Inform repository, as it looks for a file from that. In the same directory as you did all the other git clone operations, do this one too:

git clone https://github.com/DavidKinder/inform.git Adv/Inform7/Distribution/inform

If this fixes it I will update the build instructions in README.md.

OK. Some progress but now we have this.

Most likely is that you've not followed the build instructions in README.md - see particularly the section under libjpeg.

AlexProudfoot commented 2 years ago

Ah. You mean rename "jconfig.vc" to "jconfig.h". Thanks. I seem to have skipped that part.

I now have this complaint about the Chromium Embedded Framework.

I downloaded the minimal distribution as instructed.

There's an extensive list of past releases. Which one did you use?

AlexProudfoot commented 2 years ago

Stable minimal releases after cef_binary_99.2.15+g71e9523+chromium-99.0.4844.84_windows64_minimal.tar don't have the files complained about in the error list.

AlexProudfoot commented 2 years ago

The latest stable minimal release which supports your build is cef_binary_98.2.1+g29d6e22+chromium-98.0.4758.109_windows64_minimal.tar.

AlexProudfoot commented 2 years ago

These are the library versions I used.

libcef does annoyingly keep changing files round and putting things in different places. At the moment I'm using 95.7.14+g9f72f35+chromium-95.0.4638.69

Updated build instructions in commit f9167a010f4e1090eee7ffcaa9449ae6f93742a9.
