[Three] Extracting content on linux

[LordJim]

Hey everyone,

I recently started my first attempts to setup mangos three on my debian wheezy server. I am following the guide in the wiki (https://github.com/mangoswiki/Wiki/wiki/DebianInstall), and except for a few minor things I can correct myself the compile instructions work. But at the point where it tells me to extract game assets I am lost. The extraction tools do not seem to compile on a linux system - first missing header files in loadlib.cpp:

mangos@server:~/git/server/contrib/extractor$ make
[ 20%] Building CXX object loadlib/CMakeFiles/loadlib.dir/loadlib.cpp.o
In file included from /home/mangos/git/server/contrib/extractor/loadlib/loadlib.cpp:3:0:
/home/mangos/git/server/contrib/extractor/loadlib/loadlib.h:26:22: fatal error: StormLib.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

make[1]: *** [loadlib/CMakeFiles/loadlib.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2
mangos@server:~/git/server/contrib/extractor$

Now I symlink the needed headers into the directory and get:

mangos@server:~/git/server/contrib/extractor$ make

Seems somewhere is missing #include <string>, so I add it to loadlib.h:

This time the loadlib compiles fine, but linking ad does not work.

I could try to find a build target for StormLib that produces the lib, but I figured I ask first. Did somebody else ran into this already or do you know how to work around it? Is it even supposed to compile on linux?

Thanks in advance,

Chris

Hi,

Passed a link on to the dev that handles mangos three, he should reply later today

Just to give an update, I used the last couple of days to look further into the issue myself and came up with a working build chain for Linux. I would be happy to contribute this to the official repository, if someone wants to take a look at it you can find my fork at https://github.com/LordJimBeam/server.

I will mark this as solved for now, the changes I made work for me on Debian Wheezy. If anyone has trouble with it just send me a message
