64bit Linux support

[camara-tech]

I tried running yinjar on my Ubuntu 12.04 64bit system, and I received the error: "OSError: ./libtcod.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32" which means libtcod is compiled for a 32bit system. Below is the full traceback.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main.py", line 4, in <module>
    import libtcodpy as libtcod
  File "/home/owner/Dropbox/Projects/yinjar/libtcodpy.py", line 47, in <module>
    _lib = ctypes.cdll['./libtcod.so']
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/ctypes/__init__.py", line 440, in __getitem__
    return getattr(self, name)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/ctypes/__init__.py", line 435, in __getattr__
    dll = self._dlltype(name)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/ctypes/__init__.py", line 365, in __init__
    self._handle = _dlopen(self._name, mode)
OSError: ./libtcod.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32

yeah, I have to figure out how to do that. Now, if it were Mac OSX, I could compile the file to have both the 32 and the 64 bit versions :).

Jonathan, could you re-check it after running 'sh linux64.sh' on a newly downloaded zipfile?

[camara-tech]

I got the same error as before. I am going to make sure that the problem isn't with the library itself. I may need to recompile it for 64bit.

[fiddlerwoaroof]

could you and put them in the 64bit dir

[fiddlerwoaroof]

can you try manually replacing the files in the root directory with those in the 64bit one?

[camara-tech]

I actually did try that earlier and got the same error. I want to make sure that the error is repeatable before I try compiling the source.

[fiddlerwoaroof]

Ugh... Could you compile the SVN version? That's what I'm using on Mac

[camara-tech]

I pulled down just the zip file from bitbucket and it compiled successfully and everything worked.

[fiddlerwoaroof]

could you push it up?

[camara-tech]

I pulled the code using mercurial from bitbucket and recompiled, and everything works. I will put it into the 64bit folder like you had originally done.

[fiddlerwoaroof]

ok, thanks

[camara-tech]

alright it's uploaded, let me make sure it works. and then we can close this issue.

[fiddlerwoaroof]

I did some cleanup on my side, the files and directories: fonts images javascripts params.json index.html stylesheets seemed to have wandered in from the gh-pages branch

[camara-tech]

Testing is done, and I updated the Readme. This issue is closed
