Building in Termux(android)

[Happ1ness-dev]

Hi, is it possible to build this project in termux?

After an hour of trying, I managed to build it, but it crashed upon running. I also tried to build it in proot, but got lots of errors.

I've lost hope, honestly.

Edit: Fixed, see this comment.

[LagPixelLOL]

What's the error message when it crashed?

What's the error message when it crashed?

terminating with uncaught exception of type std::bad_cast: std::bad_cast
Aborted

And here's the output of debugger, if it helps (gpt-4 advised me to do it xD):

can you debug to the line where that exception is thrown? maybe put a std::cout before and after this line of code and see what happens.

Tbh, I'm not really familiar with debugging, and besides that, I've already deleted the project directory (with all the changes needed for it to compile) 🤦

[LagPixelLOL]

RIP😞

Ok, I've made the changes and built the project. I get the same error:

terminating with uncaught exception of type std::bad_cast: std::bad_cast
Aborted

[LagPixelLOL]

no output in terminal? the only 2 lines of code before it are the exit hook and curl global init, if these 2 can't be run, then probably impossible to fix.

It seems so. Sad.

[Happ1ness-dev]

I'm just so confused. Is this an issue with some external library, or the project?

[Happ1ness-dev]

I managed to successfully build and run it in proot

[Happ1ness-dev]

Yeah, seems to work fine

[Happ1ness-dev]

Ok, so for anyone interested in building this project for termux (in proot), here's how I done it:

# install vcpkg
cd $HOME
git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg.git
cd vcpkg/ && ./bootstrap-vcpkg.sh -disableMetrics

Now we need to setup things for vcpkg. I've done it just in case, because it failed for me previously, without these steps. I also maybe doing it wrong, or maybe it's the way to setup vcpkg, correct me if I'm wrong. (It's literally my first time using it)

Open your .bashrc and add the following lines to it:

# setup vcpkg
export VCPKG_FORCE_SYSTEM_BINARIES=arm
export VCPKG_ROOT=$HOME/vcpkg
export PATH=$PATH:$VCPKG_ROOT

You may need to re-login or just source the .bashrc:

source ~/.bashrc

Now we're ready to build the project.

### Assuming that you've already cloned the project and are in it's directory ###

# configure things 
cmake -B build -S . -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$VCPKG_ROOT/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake

# and build
cmake --build build/

P.S. Keep in mind, that I'm not a professional in this, and I can't guarantee that these instructions would work for everyone.

[LagPixelLOL]

Congraz!

[24rr]

should I run this on proot? How can I?

[Happ1ness-dev]

should I run this on proot? How can I?

Install proot and proot-distro, you can then install Ubuntu or any other distro available there, and log into it.

Do you have a Discord? My friend can’t even build it on Termux.

[Happ1ness-dev]

@editor-syntax I do, but I'm not your personal technical support. Don't even try to build it in termux without proot, it's a lost cause.
