Compiling ZPlusAngband with lcc C newbie

[PaulBlay]

Technically not so much a newbie as an oldbie who last did anything semi serious over a decade ago and has forgotten everything.

Anyway I'm getting eight compile errors at the moment, "undefined reference to _tolua_player_open" (and so on) corresponding to the following lines from script.c

/* Register various Angband libraries */
tolua_player_open(L);
tolua_object_open(L);
tolua_monst_open(L);
tolua_random_open(L);
tolua_ui_open(L);
tolua_misc_open(L);
tolua_spell_open(L);
tolua_field_open(L);

It does not appear that any file in the source code apart from script.c contains any mention of "tolua_player_open" or the other functions. So am I to assume I'm missing some files or am I being stupid?

You have all the files and you're not being stupid.

Run "tolua_make.bat" and then "l-make.bat" from a command prompt while in the src directory. Then try make again and everything should work.

Thanks, I'll see how it goes.

OK, progress has been made. It now compiles and even runs!
It helped that I finally noticed the relevant readme file.

I just thought I'd share this amusing error message from an earlier stage ...

C:\ZPlusAngband>make win
make: cannot make win

Looks like my character's doomed ...
