Compiling Issues

Post by SteveM »

I am having problems compiling winvnc.exe and viewervnc.exe. I have seen similiar questions on this forum about compiling problems and have never seen them completely answered. I am have tried Borland and MVC++ 6.0. the makefile dies when I get to a file called Region.obj—it can’t build this. If anyone has a similiar issue or knows a fix let me know. Thanks in advance for all your help.

Yep..;

BCC55 Compilation is broken. I need to check all the sources files (especially Region files and MSLogon files) to make the modifs that will allow BCC compile again.

Will do it asap.
It's a step by step process and should take me about 2-3 hours...

The current cvs version use a lot of sdk functions.
It compile with vc6 and the SDK2003 installed.

It seems not that simple to remove the sdk parts.
Normal we can add the header definitions from the SDK,
but in this case the standard libs does not contain the used functions.
Still looking for to fix the SDK prop

I am getting the same error when compiling. I am using MVC 6.0. I am also getting the source code from the CVS section off of the main page ultravnc.com. Is the updated source posted somewhere else? Also if anyone has a link to where the updated source code is and could paste it here just so I can verify I am getting it from the right place. Thank You in advance!

CVS is uptodate, and compile without SDK.
But you still need the "MS Processor pack", accelerated
memcpy functions use mmx and sse

What error do you have ?

I am trying to compile Winvnc :
- just downloaded source code from CVS
- installed MS Preprocessor pack

I tried to build all and got these errors:

Code: Select all

winvnc.rc (652): error RC2135 : file not found: res\world3a.ico
winvnc.rc (653): error RC2135 : file not found: res\icon2.ico
winvnc.rc (660): error RC2135 : file not found: res\vnc-1.bmp
I have been far away from VC6 for a few years. But it seems that winvnc.rc got updated but a few resources files are missing in CVS.

What should I do ?

I have to add to my previous message above that I did copy any file .ico and .bmp instead of the missing one and passed that step (even thoug I don't know what the missing images should be).

I finished the build with that score:

Code: Select all

winvnc.exe - 0 error(s), 73 warning(s)
Is that OK ?

After some searching I even did find the winvnc.exe and could run it successfully :|

Now I would gladly contribute... at least by translating into french. winvnc.rc is revision 1.59 whereas winvnc_fr.rc is revision 1.5
How can I determine what changes need to be done in the winvnc_fr ?

Indeed, ico and bmp missing. (now icon and logo tryout).
Just replace the name with an other, will update cvs.


You need some tools for the translation.
The french .rc need to be regenerated from the english.

I used RC-wintrans demo.

On dl.ultravnc.net you have the trans_server.txt and trans_viewer.txt.
This files where extracted via RC-wintrans and can be used to make an auto translation of the english rc.

After import, 95% is already translated, you only need to verify
the botton and text(sizes differ) and generate a french rc.

RC-wintrans is a great tool, but a bit over my budget.
The demo works fine for 30 days.
The generated rc contain mulitple times the word demo, find and replace fix it.

My demo version has timedout :)
If you think you have some time the next 30 days, you could give this utility a try

That's what I did but new icons are welcome (by the way: the new eye looks very good :D )

I will definitely give it a look, using this utility if I can and then contribute the translated rc back.

By the way, I would like to build my own version, with specific translation (and eventually specific icon). Am I allowed to do this (of course all copyright will remain in the about box and in the code) ?

:idea: P.S. : Rudi, could you help me with the [topic=945]"Viewer in Listen Mode - DSM Plugin cannot be loaded" problem[/topic] which is probably only a configuration problem.

how to compile with vc6

Post by lleroy »

Rudi De Vos wrote:CVS compile back without SDK (vc6)
can anyone tell me how I can compile with VC6?

I'm using VC6 with SP6 installed. However, when I open the DSW from inside Visual Studio, there's nothing there. idem of the DSP files.

can anyone tell me which files/versions to open?
Do I need to put ultravnc somewhere specific?

I'm trying out the version just checked out of CVS.

Did you use wincvs ?

Some cvs applications have a problem with the unix/dos conversions. (EOL)
