| 21:38.38 | Flash | what C++ standard are we targeting in master? |
| 21:48.04 | blast007 | same as 2.4 for the moment |
| 21:48.18 | blast007 | (which I believe is C++11) |
| 21:48.35 | Flash | that's too bad |
| 21:50.03 | blast007 | I'm certainly not saying it has to stay that way, that's just what it's probably assuming at the moment |
| 21:50.24 | Flash | it does appear so |
| 21:51.10 | Flash | I'm resisting a very strong urge to write CMake files for BZflag ... but I know that was shot down before |
| 21:51.46 | blast007 | I don't know if CMake was |
| 21:52.31 | blast007 | I didn't like needing an alpha version of Premake and was more open to CMake (since it was much more commonly used, especially in our dependencies) |
| 21:53.20 | Flash | I thought someone asked about it; I know the rational for premake was that other games use it |
| 21:54.31 | blast007 | my main hesitation with either, though, is if we end up being unable to make use of specific compiler features or otherwise make the resulting project files worse than if we just hand crafted them |
| 21:55.33 | Flash | CMake is very customizable ... I would never say "easy" but once a framework for the project is in place, it's pretty straightforward to modify |
| 22:00.02 | blast007 | master already has premake files. I don't know if it's set up to work with Linux or Windows, but I don't imagine it's far off from working. |
| 22:02.53 | tupone | Flash: Do you still think that VBO PR has to be rewritten ? I saw a lot of pointers given away |
| 22:03.02 | tupone | in all bzflag |
| 22:04.28 | tupone | I would like to learn how to use shared ptr but I don't see any way to put that on that pattern |
| 22:04.59 | tupone | blast007: dither? do you have any problem on merging |
| 22:21.02 | blast007 | tupone: I know very little about graphics stuff, so I'm not a good one to ask |
| 22:29.51 | Flash | tupone: I'm trying to build and ran into the C++11 thing |
| 22:30.16 | Flash | I'd like to suggest we move to a later standard |
| 23:46.32 | Flash | macsforme: you are the autotools wizard, yes? |
| 23:51.36 | blast007 | Flash: I've done some work on the autotools stuff as well |
| 23:52.17 | Flash | I'm trying to used AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX (https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf-archive/ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx.html#ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx) |
| 23:52.33 | Flash | but I get a "unexpected token" error when passing arguments |
| 23:52.43 | Flash | and I'm totally stumbling in the dark here |
| 23:55.17 | Flash | ./configure: line 5799: syntax error near unexpected token `11' |
| 23:55.17 | Flash | ./configure: line 5799: `AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX(11)' |
| 23:55.45 | Flash | just for a sanity check ... this would on the surface seem to be correct |
| 23:59.16 | Flash | oh ... arguments want to be in brackets |
