Cross Compiling with MXE. Linux -> Windows

[Joopjr]

I'm trying to compile the OTTD source code to a 32 bit Windows Executable on a Linux (ubuntu) machine for a project I'm working on. I've used the wiki.

The configure is as follows:

[SRC] Compiling 3rdparty/squirrel/squirrel/sqfuncstate.cpp
openttd-1.7.1/src/3rdparty/squirrel/squirrel/sqfuncstate.cpp: In function 'void DumpLiteral(SQObjectPtr&)':
openttd-1.7.1/src/3rdparty/squirrel/squirrel/sqfuncstate.cpp:88:60: warning: format '%d' expects argument of type 'int', but argument 2 has type 'SQInteger {aka long long int}' [-Wformat=]
   case OT_INTEGER: printf("{" OTTD_PRINTF64 "}",_integer(o));break;

It eventually will create a executable .exe in the bin folder. But this will simply not launch on a windows machine.

Am I missing something? Does anybody know why this doesn't work?

The 32-bit Windows executable cross-compiled with MXE also did not start on my setup. But I've got 64-bit version working, without MXE.

You can use this source archive to cross-compile 64-bit version, it includes all precompiled Windows libraries OpenTTD will need.
It generates one huge .exe file with no .dll dependencies, at least it runs okay on Windows 10 tablet:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/libsdl ... z/download

You will first need to install the cross-compiler:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install g++-mingw-w64

Replace OpenTTD sources in directory openttd-mingw/openttd with your own, then go to the directory openttd-mingw/build and run:

Code: Select all

./configure.sh
make -j4 VERBOSE=1 LIBS='-lsicuuc -lsiculx -lsicutu -lsicuuc -lsicuin -lsicudt -lsicuuc -lsiculx -lsicutu -lsicuuc  -licu-le-hb -lharfbuzz -lpng -limm32 -lz -lfreetype -lgdi32 -llzma -lwinmm -llzo2 -lws2_32'

Everything OK on my machine (Lubuntu/Win7).

What exact source code do you have? What revision? What exact patches?
Have you tried compiling natively first?
Have you tried running in WINE?
How does "simply not launch" look like exactly?
Can you upload the binary?

[pelya]

I've uses 1.7.1 official source tarball. I've attached the resulting exe file, it crashes when I try to launch it using Wine, and my previous build crashed on Windows 10 laptop. If you could figure out what's wrong with it that would be great, I don't want to cross-compile all the libraries manually, MXE would be an awesome thing if it would actually work.

These are my steps, the only difference from the wiki is that I did not install it into /usr/local:

Code: Select all

git clone http://github.com/mxe/mxe.git
cd mxe
make -j4 gcc zlib libpng lzo freetype xz icu4c
cd ..
cd openttd-1.7.1

export PATH=`pwd`/../mxe/usr/bin:$PATH
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=`pwd`/../mxe/usr/i686-w64-mingw32.static/lib/pkgconfig

./configure \
   --host=i686-w64-mingw32.static \
   --pkg-config=i686-w64-mingw32.static-pkg-config \
   --enable-static \
   --with-lzo2=`pwd`/../mxe/usr/i686-w64-mingw32.static/lib/liblzo2.a

make -j4 VERBOSE=1

[Joopjr]

What exact source code do you have? What revision? What exact patches?

It will even fail when i don't include any patches. I'm using the latest stable release.

Have you tried compiling natively first?

Yes, compiling it as a Dedicated Server does work and launch.

Have you tried running in WINE?

No, i'm using a dedicated server with SSH, I don't have a interface/desktop.

How does "simply not launch" look like exactly? Can you upload the binary?

I dubble click the .exe and nothing happens. I can see openttd.exe shortly in the taske manager but it disapears after some time. I've included the .exe

OK, I'm able to reproduce the bug, hurray! Now it should be like a walk through a park I'll let you know if I find something.

BTW, if you are finding anything troubling in the tutorial, don't bother leaving a note on the discussion page or here.
