compiling errors #66

Closed IOMisaka closed 1 year ago

IOMisaka commented 1 year ago

Hi, I need help to compile this project. When I run "go build", I got undefined errors on struct Peer and struct AnnouncePayload. Is there something I have missed? Sorry for bothering, I'm new to golang and running on Windows 11. Thanks. i3VWvZPXsy

What version of Go are you using?

Does it help when you manually do a go get github.com/schollz/peerdiscovery?

IOMisaka commented 1 year ago

I have go1.20 installed, and the package peerdiscovery is already located in go/pkg/mod/github.com/schollz. I tried manually but got the same package version v1.7.0, it seems nothing changed. I can't find struct Peer nor AnnouncePayload in project and peerdiscovery. Where are they should be?

IOMisaka commented 1 year ago

I just checked the go.mod file, should i downgrade go 1.20 to 1.18? Code_20230209204947

Go 1.20 should be fine.

I never used the Go tooling under Windows. So I have no idea what may be wrong.

You will need to change your command line to create a shared library instead of an application and give it header and library location of a jpeg library via Go's cgo system.

fzwoch commented 1 year ago

From the Go 1.20 changelog:

The go command now disables cgo by default on systems without a C toolchain. More specifically, when the CGO_ENABLED environment variable is unset, the CC environment variable is unset, and the default C compiler (typically clang or gcc) is not found in the path, CGO_ENABLED defaults to 0. As always, you can override the default by setting CGO_ENABLED explicitly.

The most important effect of the default change is that when Go is installed on a system without a C compiler, it will now use pure Go builds for packages in the standard library that use cgo, instead of using pre-distributed package archives (which have been removed, as noted above) or attempting to use cgo and failing. This makes Go work better in some minimal container environments as well as on macOS, where pre-distributed package archives have not been used for cgo-based packages since Go 1.16.

You will definitely need a C compiler for compiling, and perhaps explicitly enable the use of CGO.

Thank you, now I use mingw64 for cgo. After adding CGO_CPPFLAGS for jpeg-turbo, obs-frontend-api and libobs, now I'm likely stuck on utils.c. like other application, maybe I need something like ... obs plugin SDK? I try to include header path libobs from obs-studio sourcecode, but it doesn't work. go build -x prompt below:

WindowsTerminal_20230210195437

fzwoch commented 1 year ago

Yes, you will need to link to obs.lib, obs-frontend-api.lib and jpeg.lib (preferable from libjpeg-turbo).

Check upon https://pkg.go.dev/cmd/cgo for CGO_CFLAGS and CGO_LDFLAGS documentation.

Edit: I think since it is mingw, you can just link to the .dll files. You don't need the import library.

IOMisaka commented 1 year ago

Thanks, jpeg-turbo and CGO_LDFLAGS has set. Now I'm try to build obs.lib and obs-frontend-api.lib from obs source

fzwoch commented 1 year ago

You should be able to pick the .dll files from your existing OBS installation.

IOMisaka commented 1 year ago

Succeed! Converting dll to lib, that's amazing. Thanks for help. Here's my config for building on windows 11:

Config

  1. Install go1.20 64bit, mingw64 and libjpeg-turbo-gcc64.
  2. Get the header files from obs-studio source, just copy obs-studio\libobs and obs-studio/UI/obs-frontend-api.
  3. Get obs.lib and obs-frontend-api.lib. This is the tutorial for converting dll to lib. Beware of the NAME.def, it will become the NAME.dll the lib reference to.
  4. Set go env CGO_CPPFLAGS, add header folders of libobs and obs-frontend-api and libjpeg-turbo-gcc64.(go env shows like set CGO_CPPFLAGS=-IC:\repos\obs-studio-28.1.2\libobs -IC:\repos\obs-studio-28.1.2\UI\obs-frontend-api -IC:\mingw64\libjpeg-turbo-gcc64\include)
  5. Set go env CGO_LDFLAGS, add lib folders of libobs and obs-frontend-api and libjpeg-turbo-gcc64 with -static option.(It need an extra jpeg62.dll when publishing plugin without static link. go env shows like set CGO_LDFLAGS=-LC:\mingw64\libjpeg-turbo-gcc64\lib -lobs -lobs-frontend-api -static,I put obs.lib and obs-frontend-api.lib into mingw64\x86_64-w64-mingw32\lib so here I just use -l)
  6. Run go build -buildmode=c-shared -ldflags="-s -w" in obs-teleport folder.
fzwoch commented 1 year ago

I think you could have skipped step 3.. An import library is only needed for the MSVC linker (which is not supported by CGO anyway). GCC and Clang are "smart" enough when you try to link to a .dll directly to read the .dll and create the required info themselves.

IOMisaka commented 1 year ago

But it doesn't work when trying to use dlls directly.

fzwoch commented 1 year ago

Hm weird. But congrats anyway!
