that was just a pinch of it, that thing fly so fast you cant read it and it's super long, everything it tries to do pull back an error just like what you see in the example above.

Must be something strange with your setup, like you haven't got the latest Cygwin, or you haven't installed everything. I did it a minute ago under Cygwin with no problems.

I used this file:

http://www.gammon.com.au/files/smaug/smaug16fuss.tgz

Under Cygwin:


tar xzf smaug16fuss.tgz
cd SmaugFUSS/src


Edited line 5 of the Makefile to read:


CYGWIN = -DCYGWIN


(In other words, removed the #).

Typed "make":


$ make
make -s smaug

  Compiling o/act_comm.o....

Done compiling mud.


Ran MUD:


$ cd ../area
$ ../src/smaug


All worked perfectly. If the same thing happened for "about 7 different codebases" then clearly something is setup wrongly for you. Hard to say what. See what version of gcc you have:

This is what I get:


$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 3.3.1 (cygming special)

You could also try turning off IMC and see what errors you get since the ones you posted are related to IMC. There should be a spot in the Makefile for it.

He could try, but as imc.c was the first file to be compiled, I think that is why we have those errors first.

In that case, why not just download the precompiled version? Then you don't need to compile anything:

Thanks for the input and suggestions mates, I believe my problems fell into downloading just the default files with cygwin. Therefore I have completely removed it from my system and started with a fresh copy, I'm downloading the WHOLE thing and all files available with it.. crikes that's a big download!

I was 99.999% I was using the correct commands and such because I had managed to get 2 DBZ codebases up and run earlier, but that's what im not wanting to start with and I know what I want to build and how I want it build. I had even done as Whiteknight suggested, and disabled the IMC and was still getting the same problem. I'll post a reply as of how it went with a great praise to you each for your help and suggestions.

However on another note, I have began learning to code recently thus, being deemed "NOOB" I have another question that perhaps you could help me with:

I have been editing the files and playing with the codes just to get familiar with everything from the codesbase after it compiles. I have used cygwin to compile/start the codebase/mud and use my preferred client (MUSHclient) to connect to local host and usually use port 4000.
I want to be able to get this setup on my server, and work on the code and such from my laptop from anywhere and I also know you have to be able to access the shell in order to do so. I use SSHSecure and Bloodshed c++ (If you know of better programs just leave a link,I'll happily try them out).. so...
my question is:
How do I allow access to the shell? Set up a password and such so that I have the ability to access it from my laptop with any interenet connection?
I have tried google searching for an answer but all i manage to pull up is information about host that grant you shell access if you buy a certain "package deal" from them or information about some hacking sites.. not what i'm looking for..

once again , any feedback is greatly appreciated and thank you all for helping =)

You want to connect to the "host" which is running Cygwin through SSH or the sort? I do not believe that is possible.

If there is an ssh server package in Cygwin and it runs, then I see no reason why being able to connect to it wouldn't work. Provided port 22 isn't blocked by the system's firewall.

I haven't seen this done, having an incoming ssh connection for a Windows PC, but as Samson says, it may be possible.

unfortunatley guys, I'm back at square one. I have completely removed cygwin and reinstalled it, but this time with the works, everything that I could get for it.
I unzip the smaugfuss codebase and do the usual routine...

open cygwin
cd smaugfuss
cd src
make
..........
but nNOOooOOoo doesnt work that well..
soon as it start to open the imc file EVERY thing it try to compile get errors and warnings out the wazooo and i cant figure it out... Just 2 days ago I could open it.. I have not changed anything in cygwin nor the codebase itself..

All I want to do is this: open the codesbase on my couputer.. practice editing and apply the code to the mud itself.. I dont use ssh he to connect to my own cpu, it's the same cpu I use.. I been opening cygwin file c:/cygwin/home/user/codebase .. playing with the files there and then saving and hotbooting.. but now I cant even do that because cygwin is not acting right.. use your noggins mates, I up a certain creek here and without a paddle, I cant figure it out for the life of me..

Can you type in "gcc -v" on the Cygwin command line and tell us what version it says it's using?

You haven't said what the problem is with using a precompiled version. You only really need to compile if you are planning to change the C code.
