[Question] Сustomed .exe:How to compile?

[AlexCross]

Does any one know how to compile this code: FH2.exe Source - Forgotten Hope Wiki ? I'd tried to compile in Dev-C++ but got errors. Can you help me?

[Jonny]

Knowing the errors would help...

I probably cant help you much, only had a little look at programming years ago. Never really learned that much. But the errors would help someone who knows how to compile stuff fix your problem.

[AlexCross]

Ok. Here are errors.

45 D:\Dev-Cpp\Projects\unnamed1.cpp `MOVE_DIRECTORY' was not declared in this scope
45 D:\Dev-Cpp\Projects\unnamed1.cpp `WHERE_MY_DOCUMENTS' was not declared in this scope 
45 D:\Dev-Cpp\Projects\unnamed1.cpp `WHERE_MY_DOCUMENTS' was not declared in this scope 
46 D:\Dev-Cpp\Projects\unnamed1.cpp `MOVE_DIRECTORY' was not declared in this scope 
46 D:\Dev-Cpp\Projects\unnamed1.cpp `WHERE_MY_DOCUMENTS' was not declared in this scope 
46 D:\Dev-Cpp\Projects\unnamed1.cpp `WHERE_MY_DOCUMENTS' was not declared in this scope

and etc...

It is into the DevC++ and Builder C++. May be I should use something else to compile this?

no i do not think that anything will compile this .. you need the declaration of "MOVE_DIRECTORY" and "WHERE_MY_DOCUMENTS" in the file, no compiler can work with things he doesn't know

[AlexCross]

I don't know what kind of type it should be.
I'm got this errors, if I declaret them as char:

55 D:\Dev-Cpp\Projects\unnamed1.cpp invalid conversion from `char' to `pathspec::<anonymous enum>'

Why not take it up with the FH2 team?

Mas

[AlexCross]

I just thought that PR team could told me, how they are compiled that code

[M.0.D]

is this the install-exe? if so you could try to declare them as pathspec and fill them with the right paths, MOVE_DIRECTORY as the directory where it should be installed etc

Perhaps it is explained in the exe what path is used for what

[AlexCross]

No it's launch-exe... I hope

This is C. Trying to compile it as C++ is unlikely to work, though it would be relatively easy to convert. Try naming the file .c and perhaps Dev-C++ will do the right thing. But I don't have much experience of that.

I did it for them and sent them the exe.
