Hello Franky,

Don't let such comments discourage you. If you enjoy working on
something and think it may provide value to others, just ignore the
critics.

Or better yet:

Don't pay any attention to the critics–don't even ignore them. ~Samuel Goldwyn

Keep up the good work!

I think we should work to make the gluescript easy to build
there are some issues but they can be solved

I have downloaded glue_0.1.01 tar.gz and i have this error when i
decompress it
gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--crc error
glue_0.1.01/src/zlib/zutil.c
glue_0.1.01/src/zlib/zutil.h
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors


Next i have installed
premake4

just copied the binary to /usr/bin
it works on my 32 bit ubuntu lucid machine
file /usr/bin/premake4
/usr/bin/premake4: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1
(SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.8,
stripped
so this was easy

next
i have installed poco from repository
sudo apt-get install libpoco-dev

then cd
glue_0.1.01/src

premake4
Poco Include Directory: /usr/include
/home/mariuz/Downloads/glue_0.1.01/src/linux.lua:14: attempt to
concatenate global 'poco_lib_dir' (a nil value)

so here i'm stumbled

ps: i think we should eliminate these annoying build errors and maybe
people will not rant so much about them
instead of solving them

ok i solved that sudo apt-get install libpocofoundation9-dbg

but now

premake4
Poco Include Directory: /usr/include

Poco Library Directory: /usr/lib
Using the NSPR library which is part of GLUEscript
Using the SpiderMonkey library which is part of GLUEscript
Using the zlib library which is part of GLUEscript
Using the png library which is part of GLUEscript
Using the jpg library which is part of GLUEscript
/home/mariuz/Downloads/glue_0.1.01/src/premake4.lua:83: attempt to
concatenate global '_ACTION' (a nil value)

maybe we should give a message if _ACTION is empty
print("please use premake Debug|Release")

[mariuz]

maybe

print("please use premake4 gmake on linux or if you are on windows
premake4 vs2008 http://industriousone.com/action")


now have another error in make

../../src/nspr/src/pthreads/ptio.c: Assembler messages:
../../src/nspr/src/pthreads/ptio.c:4743: Error: suffix or operands
invalid for `stos'

Any help is great. I'll try to focus on Linux for the coming days.

That's a good idea. I'll add this check

Can you try to install NSPR and use that instead of the one included in
the archive? I'm working on integrating NSPR and SpiderMonkey in Poco
SpiderMonkey framework and I hope that this will solve this problem.
