Error building Castle Game Engine on Raspberry Pi

rumis · December 9, 2019, 1:25pm

So I follow this post by michalis to build CGE on my Raspberry Pi
I install fpc, get the CGE source code, and when I build the CGE build tool I get this error :

Is there any suggestion to fix this problem? Thanks in advance

The build tool compilation script is a little special, it assumes that the current directory when you run the script is inside the CGE root, or inside CGE tools/build-tool/.

So you need to call

cd /home/pi/Programs/castle-engine-snapshot/tools/build-tool/
./castle-engine_compile.sh

I updated https://github.com/castle-engine/castle-engine/wiki/Build-Tool to say it more explicitly.

Note that afterwards you can set the environment variables (PATH and CASTLE_ENGINE_PATH) as described on https://github.com/castle-engine/castle-engine/wiki/Build-Tool , and you will be able to use castle-engine compile ... in any directory.

P.S. Nice to see interest around Raspberry Pi I’m writing this from Raspberry Pi (I’m now using it as a low-cost desktop computer at home)
