The continuing saga of a noobie trying to install/compile/run FG in windoze.
I've gotten everything to compile and link - theoretically. Well, there is an fgfs.exe created. I've spent a couple of days gathering tools, etc to try and troubleshoot this thing, but still no joy. If I run fgfs from the VSC++ 9.0 debugger I get into fgOSMainLoop and then single step. First line is viewer->run(); single step goes into the routine which just returns a status. single step again - we're back in fgOSMainLoop. Check the value of status = 0. Single step and it goes to the next line (fgExit(status) and it dies.... Unhandled exception at 0x1049191c in fgfs.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x0000004c. I don't know whether it's related or not but using "Process Monitor" I get a ton of output - most appear to be successes, but there are some failures - notably in RegOpenKey and QueryOpen. an example is HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\MSVCR90D.dll If I run fgfs.exe by clicking on the icon, the program attempts to start and crashes with the usual fgfs.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Yeah, I bet their sorry. So sorry they can't even give a hint at what's wrong. Anyone have an idea? Windoze XP sp2 Intel core 2 Duo E8500 @ 3.16Ghz. It claims 2.5GB RAM (there is 4) I gotta say that this has been the most pain I've had to suffer programming wise - ever in my 30+ years of doing it. And I haven't written a line of code yet. -- Geoff McLean McLean Research Associates "To be good is not enough when you dream of being great." ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
