如何在ubuntu上编译doom？

Question

I am trying to compile the source code for the original doom as a way to learn C. I downloaded it from github and fixed an obvious mistake in i_video.c line 49 (errnos.h -> errno.h).

I now get this:

Is this an incompatibility with modern compilers? Has anyone managed to get passed it?

Answer 1

If you are using 64-bit compiler, try to use the -m32 flag and link with -L/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ for 32-bit libraries.

By the way, if you will compile this source, you will still have an issue with running as this build needs 320x200 screen resolution. Otherwise it will not run.

I am working on the SDL port of the DOOM, so you can try my source from the GitHub .

You will need to install SDL library to run it. Also, there is no sound there.

Answer 2

As for the initializer list error, it's right there - the elements in the initializer lists are not constant expressions. Take a look at this:

{"mousedev", (int*)&mousedev, (int)"/dev/ttyS0"},

I guess mousedev is another variable. There you have it.

I can't remember now, but I think non-constants in initializer lists were introduced in one of the later C standards. Try making the compiler stick to a different one - I'd take a shot with C99. http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/C-Dialect-Options.html#C-Dialect-Options

The one about integer vs pointer size was correctly answered by Alex.
