Compiling problem...?
Monkey Forums/Monkey Programming/Compiling problem...?|

| I've tried compiling my game on Win8 (html5/glfw works), and I'm getting this error: Also, If I try to compile to GLFW (without using MingW), I get this error: I'm using latest Monkey, Visual Studio 2012, and HttpRequest on the non-compiling code. |

| Are you on a Win8 machine? As you need to be on one. |

|  I'm using latest Monkey, Visual Studio 2012  load up the project file under the template folder, then re-save it. that may fix it. you may have to do it under the monkey/target folder too. |

| @MikeHart: Yes, I am on Win8, with Visual Studio 2012, and have the Win8 SDK installed. @AdamRedwoods: Nope, didn't help - I even opened the project on Visual Studio, and trying to compile it directly there, I got this errors: Same 37 errors shown in monkey-console. They all seem related to socket stuff - probably caused by using HttpRequest on code. Edit: confirmed. I can correctly build "blobmonster" sample (but I can only run it on VS2012? Not from Monkey???) - apparently HttpRequest isn't implemented on Win8 target?? Edit 2:But even "blobmonster" doesn't compile here under GLFW (no MingW) - but opening the project on VS2012 and hitting "update" fixed it. Edit 3:When I ran any Win8 app, what is that ugly [x] symbol that appears before the game loads? Any ideas how to change that? |

|  but opening the project on VS2012 and hitting "update" fixed it.  so i believe monkey files are meant for VS2010, and unfortunately, VS2012 and VS2010 are not nice to each other. you can fix this permanently by updating the proj file under monkey/targets/glfw/template/ .  When I ran any Win8 app, what is that ugly [x] symbol that appears before the game loads? Any ideas how to change that?   myproject.build/template/assets/splashscreen.png  apparently HttpRequest isn't implemented on Win8 target??  #If (LANG<>"cpp" And LANG<>"java") Or TARGET="win8" #Error "The httprequest module is unavailable on this target" #Endif Apparently not (which is lame)! but i think it's being looked into here: http://monkeycoder.co.nz/Community/posts.php?topic=5234 I think Rone has a module that can be brought into monkey easily for this. |
