Compiling tbaMUD
under Microsoft Windows
There are a number of different compilers available for Microsoft Windows that
can be used to compile tbaMUD. Each compiler works differently, so each
compiler has a different set of instructions.
We currently have instructions for using the following compilers:
1. Cygnus CYGWIN (Formerly Cygnus GNU-Win32). This is a FREE compiler for
Microsoft Windows! If you don't own a compiler, you can just download this
one off the net and get tbaMUD up and running in no time. Read the file
README.CYGWIN.
2. Microsoft Visual C++ version 4.x -- read the file README.MSVC4.
3. Microsoft Visual C++ version 5.x -- read the file README.MSVC5.
4. Microsoft Visual C++ version 6.x -- read the file README.MSVC6.
5. Microsoft Visual C++ version 8.x -- read the file README.MSVC8. This is
also called Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 and the express edition is free and
can be downloaded from Microsoft.
6. Borland C++ -- read the file README.BORLAND
7. Watcom C++ v.11 -- read the file README.WATCOM
It should be possible to compile tbaMUD using other compilers that are not
listed here, or other versions of these compilers -- as long as they support
long filenames, etc. However, we don't have instructions handy for those
compilers. Feel free to submit your own.
Have fun!
