How do I compile Irrlicht lib with code::blocks?

Hi,
As the topic says: I would like to know how do I compile Irrlicht for Win32 with code::blocks.
I already know, that you need to have:
1. MinGW gcc compiler for windows
2. DirectX SDK
3. code::blocks
4. The Irrlicht sources (i.e. from the svn trunk)
Step 1
Open the Irrlicht project file for code::blocks (irrlicht/source/Irrlicht/Irrlicht-gcc.cbp)
Step 2
Right click on the project main folder and choose build options ...
Select the build configuration you want to edit.
I choose Win32 - Release - accurate math - dll.
Under the Search directories/Compiler tab add the Include path from the DirectX SDK
Setp 3
Select the Build target - Win32 - Release - accurate math - dll
Press the build button, code::blocks now compiles the lib.
After code::blocks has finished, you can find a new dll in the irrlicht/bin/gcc folder (Irrlicht.dll).
So far so good, if I now use the new lib to compile my projects I get allways a crash at application starttime when I use opengl as video type,
if I use directx I get a message from irrlicht, that the lib wasn't compiled with directx.
What did I miss?

Are you using the correct DLL with your project?

Please post the output from the console.

Okay I've tested it with a fresh Irrlicht copy (release version 1.5.0)...
This is the compiler dump:

OpenGL is running fine now!!!
But I've still got an error with directx. If I'm using
driverType = EDT_DIRECT3D9; as renderer I get this msg:
DIRECT3D9 Driver was not compiled into this dll. Try another one.
So I guess the DirectX SDK is not included right.

Yes, you have to enable compiling DX with gcc by another define:
IRR_COMPILE_WITH_DX9_DEV_PACK

Thanks for this hint!
Reading the $%ยง& comments in the source code would do the trick
Here is what I've done so far:
IrrCompileConfig.h:
Code: Select all
#define IRR_COMPILE_WITH_DX9_DEV_PACK
#if defined(_IRR_WINDOWS_API_) && (!defined(__GNUC__) || defined(IRR_COMPILE_WITH_DX9_DEV_PACK))
//#define _IRR_COMPILE_WITH_DIRECT3D_8_
#define _IRR_COMPILE_WITH_DIRECT3D_9_
#endif
Does anybody know where I can get the DirectX8 SDK?

i would be interested in that aswell... as far as I know all you need is
8 header files:
d3dx8.h
d3dx8core.h
d3dx8effect.h
d3dx8math.h
d3dx8mesh.h
d3dx8shape.h
d3dx8tex.h
d3dx8math.inl
and 1 lib:
d3d8.lib
Now I've got all that, but the linker keeps complaining about the lib, saying it's not in a valid format... It's only 1024 bytes big, so I guess it's indeed broken... I can provide the headers, but I was searching like madman for a working lib... We could zip all that and make a download for everyone else...

I guess the lib file will be in one of these downloads-

Oh cool an DX8 SDK. However, also the DX9 SDKs up to 2005 (or so) had all necessary DX8 files included.
