Compiling Errors

[tada5hi]

Hi, first of all nice Project. I really appreciate it, that you guys try to keep Ghost++ bzw. Warcraft 3 alive. First Error:

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_DYNAMIC_MODULE=1 ..

Results in:

-- The C compiler identification is GNU 4.7.2 -- The CXX compiler identification is GNU 4.7.2 -- Check for working C compiler: /usr/bin/gcc -- Check for working C compiler: /usr/bin/gcc -- works -- Detecting C compiler ABI info -- Detecting C compiler ABI info - done -- Check for working CXX compiler: /usr/bin/c++ -- Check for working CXX compiler: /usr/bin/c++ -- works -- Detecting CXX compiler ABI info -- Detecting CXX compiler ABI info - done -- Found ZLIB: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so (found version "1.2.7") -- Found BZip2: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbz2.so (found version "1.0.6") -- Looking for BZ2_bzCompressInit in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbz2.so -- Looking for BZ2_bzCompressInit in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbz2.so - found -- Building dynamic module CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:311 (target_compile_definitions): Unknown CMake command "target_compile_definitions".

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

After i uncommented the target line the cmake operation, results a new Error.

• Building dynamic module -- Linking against dependent libraries dynamically CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:349 (install): install TARGETS given unknown argument "INCLUDES".

After i also uncommented the following line the Build was successfull. Make & make install worked without any Error.

bncsutil make & make install worked without any changes.

The make file in the root Directory resultet in: g++: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-std=c++14’ make: *** [src/bncsutilinterface.o]

Your version of gcc is way too old. https://gcc.gnu.org/projects/cxx-status.html#cxx14

Im running on 4.7.2 is that version too old ? Which one do you recommend ?

gcc -v Using built-in specs.

4.7 is 5 years old. Get the newest you can get.

Hi im pretty nooby regarding c++ compiling. Can you give me a Version number you recommend? I browsed in the internet and just found that gcc-6 is available but no higher version and gcc 4.9 seems to be the currently stable version. Im using Debian wheezy if that helps.

GCC 6 would be good enough (with GCC 7 being the latest major version). Newer compiler is usually better so just like Argon- put it - get the newest you can (reasonably) get.
