Successfully built OmnibandTK-1.5 from src in Windows 7

[DernHelm]

I have successfully built OmnibandTK-1.5 from src;
Source Location:

http://angband.oook.cz/faangband/OmnibandTk-1.5.zip

http://angbandplus.github.io/AngbandPlus/omnibandtk.html

I Have Copies Of Course... OmnibandTk-1.5.zip on
www.zaimoni.com is just the binaries! (not mine)
I used msys_mingw release #8 to do the build in
Windows 7. I used the following directory structure:

bass24
Msys
OmniTk-1.5-Src
--build
--lib
--src
--tk
--variant
--CMakeLists
--CMakeLists.txt.orig
tcl8.5.7
TclTk-8.5.7
tk8.5.7
tktreectrl-2.2.9
zlib-1.2.2

I used cmake-3.2.0-rc1-win32-x86. I put cmake in
the Msys directory. In the msys_mingw shell you use:

PATH=$PATH:/cmake-3.2.0-rc1-win32-x86/bin

Do the following to change directories:

xxxx@XXXX ~
$ cat build

PATH=$PATH:/cmake-3.2.0-rc1-win32-x86/bin
cd /c/XYZ/OmnibandTk-1.5-Build/OmniTk-1.5-Src/build

xxxx@XXXX ~
$ . build
xxxx@XXXX /c/XYZ/OmnibandTk-1.5-Build/OmniTk-1.5-Src/build


First I built TclTk-8.5.7 then zlib-1.2.2.
I changed zlib-122 to zlib-1.2.2 in CMakeLists.
Remove "build/CMakeCache.txt". Then from build in your shell:


xxxx@XXXX /c/XYZ/OmnibandTk-1.5-Build/OmniTk-1.5-Src/build
$ cmake .. -G"MSYS Makefiles"
...
$ make

remove "ADD_SUBDIRECTORY (BASS)"


from OmnibandTk-1.5-Build\OmniTk-1.5-Src\src\music\CMakeLists.txt
remove "ADD_SUBDIRECTORY (BASS-stream)
"

from OmnibandTk-1.5-Build\OmniTk-1.5-Src\src\sound\CMakeLists.txt
This needs work!

Yes!!!!!
I Tried It And It Starts Up! You have to put files in the
right directory... but ok.


Good Luck!

Nice work! In theory someone might be able to adapt this into an alternative front end to post-core-UI-split Vanilla, but I think in practice it might be more work than it's worth.
