why ? CVS is too old now, even SVN is getting old :)

anyway , i couldnt compile G3D , the python build script doesnt say
the exact error , why didnt you guys make the build sciprt in bash ?

iam also looking for documents to start , a hello world example or
anything :)

thanks.

The demos are available in the source, that's the best place to look apart from the documentation that is built.
 
It looks like you're using the 8.01 beta.  Please check out the latest from CVS to fix the errors.
 
We have been looking to release a new beta very soon but are waiting for a number of changes to be finished.

Looks like a build issue on 32-bit Linux with the new Any class that was just checked in.
 
Shawn, can you look at this?

HI,

You can find the build instructions in... BUILD_INSTRUCTIONS.txt

I typically build with "buildg3d update" and then set my link and include paths manually (through environment variables), rather than installing G3D into the system directories.  buildg3d --install update will do the system install.

I don't build on Linux, but it looks like it cant find the right
header files perhaps? Have you checked through the build instructions
again specifically making sure its pointing to the latest header
files. Might be worth doing the same with the libraries too, I had
something similar when I had multiple versions of G3D on one machine..
if they get muddled, it all goes a bit awry similar to what your
seeing.

That is not a build error.
 
Please, do not try to make a distribution package for G3D.  We do not want to support packages.

i thought its a bug since i get the following message while compiling/building

****************************
Assertion Failure
Zip fileLength failed.

Expression: zipLength
/home/dude/PKGBUILDs/g3d/src/G3D-build/test/tzip.cpp:115


Choose an option by number:
  (0) Debug   (1) Ignore   (2) Exit
************************

however , i press 1 and then if fails or finished as you said .

also , iam pretty sure this command is right, ./buildg3d all --install ~/usr/


iam making the package for myself , so i can control the files and install them system-wide :)

That is an error in the test program, but your link did not include it.
 
Would you be able to debug and tell us what file length is returned?  No one else has reported this.  I imagine it might be due to an untested 32-bit gcc issue.

That command should work but we normally put the options before the target: ./buildg3d --install /dir all

You need to be running under a debugger.  You should be able to find the testd executable under temp/.

I have this on my list to test myself before release.  We are all using 64-bit environments at this point on Linux, so I don't usually build 32-bit anymore.
 
The logs aren't very helpful since they don't show the state of local variables, just the breakpoint being caught by a debugger.

As i understand it 7.01 is the current stable version.
Is there a particular feature you need that isn't in the stable
release? If not, you could just download the stable release from
source-forge and I imagine your problems will be solved. The CVS head,
by it's very nature, is going to be unstable.

I experienced similar issues sometime ago. Certain versions of gcc
will throw a bazillion of errors caused by non-included headers. The
one you mention can be easily fixed by adding #include <limits.h> at
the beginning of Discovery2.cpp.

IIRC, I had to add stuff like memory.h and string.h to other files
too, bu you should be able to figure it out.

Is this a problem in the current build as well?  i.e., do we need to fix it for 8.0?

I don't recall experiencing this with v8 CVS but I'll give it a spin
this night when I get home. If I do find any of these issues I'll make
sure to drop a patch here.

FWIW, this started happening when I moved to Ubuntu 9.04 which
included gcc 4.3.x by default. I'm now using 9.10 with gcc 4.4.x so
we'll see how it fares.

The current build is fine.  There is a test failure with zip on 32-bit linux/gcc.
