Build Error posted by Oeconomist @ 173.147.166.191 on Apr 16 2010 11:18 AM

In attempting to build release 0.4.10, I get the following:

and I get similar or identical results in attempting to build the development version found on the morning of 16 April. I use RHEL 5.4 on a 686.

I fixed the error in src/modifier.hpp in the development version. Not sure what is going on with /usr/include/linux/uinput.h. Which compiler are you using and what kernel version are you running?

For the kernel, I default to the PAE (Physical Address Extension) version of 2.6.18-164. My system has gcc 4.1.2-46 installed. (I need to renew my Red Hat subscription, or migrate to something else.)

Re: Build Error posted by grumbel @ 89.245.122.167 on May 26 2010 10:48 PM

Adding #include <linux/input.h> to the top of the files that have issues with uinput.h might help.

After updating to the most recent version of RHEL 5.5, and d'loading the latest tarball of xboxdrv, I again attempted compilation. Here is the output:

Re: COMPILE ISSUES posted by desertmax @ 91.115.104.203 on Feb 22 2009 8:11 PM

uinput.cpp / uinput.h is probably missing the following two lines at the very top (maybe others):

#include <cstdlib>
#include <cstring>

In g++ 4.3 or so the standard header files have been edited to only include other header files that they absolutly depend on. So, for example, the devs could have included "limits" and forgot to include "cstdlib" which happened "automagically" on their machines, but because you are using newer header files, this won't work on your machine.

Please also send an e-mail to the developers to inform them about this error. :-)
