Maybe I simply don't know enough what a .LIB file is
I hope you don't mind if I point out some basics of compiling?

First, the lib file is only added by the linker. That means if you tried compiling without linking, you would not get an error if you did not have the libs you need. I think there are two catagories of libs: ones that the linker looks for for any c++ project and ones that the program calls for. I am not sure of that, but it doesn't matter, we're only focusing on the specific ones for each project.

lib files contain methods, fuctions, procedures, or whatever you want to call them, that are called by the program. The linker only has to read the object files to know the names of the needed lib files. The only thing it doesn't know is where the lib files are. So all you need to do in this case is put the lib folder for the Platform SDK and DirectX SDK on the search path for the linker. There is no need to name each lib file it is going to need.

So my main point is to explain why the linker only needs the search path to the lib directories it will need and not the names of the lib files themselves.

Of course, the compiler still needs to know which libs contain the code for the procedures called. I'm guessing that information is in the sources.

Thx, after reading a little bit MSDN I think I get it now.
("explicit and implicit linking")

1.You need a LIB file if you link to a DLL statically (implicit). This is the way AviSynth calls OS DLLs. Each function call (e.g. to ACM) aims at a DLL and each of those DLLs must have a LIB. So only complete knowledge of the source will tell you which DLLs are involved as they are not written somewhere. And the header files defining the functions don't have always simply the same name as the DLL.

2.If the DLL is linked explicit / dynamically you don't need a LIB, the functions are returned as pointers. This is a little more complex to program, it seems, but this is the way AviSynth calls the plugins. It has to be that way because the name of the DLL is of course not fixed when compiling AviSynth.

@WarpEnterprises

I think you need the lib file for the os dlls whether you link to them dynamically or statically. It you link to it dynamically, you still need the address of the function within the dll you are calling. Unlike the little dll we write for AviSynth or even the AviSynth dll itself, a dll like kernel32.dll has multiple indepentant programs. The calling program needs the address of the specific program being called within the dll. That information is given to the calling program by the linker through kernel32.lib. So I believe that you always need the lib file for an os dll whether you link to it statically or dynamically.

My guess is that AviSynth is able to load its own dlls from a script mainly because there is a set starting place for the one program within each dll.

That is great work though, and I wonder if static and implicit are not really synonymous. So that you are half right.

help needed again...

AviSynth won't compile anymore, there are many linker errors (mainly imagelib, softwire) regardless which configuration I use.

Is there something I must do except using the .DSP file?

sh0dan

8th April 2003, 17:46

The new dsp file should contain the new libraries - what's in your distrib/lib directory?

WarpEnterprises

8th April 2003, 21:54

found the cause.
There still is a warning about a conflict witg LIBC, but it compiles.
When I started a Version() script with VD, it wrote "cannot determine filetype" (thought it was a bad compile) - instead the lib's AND the DLL's (libjpeg.dll, libpng13.dll) have to be present.

(wanted to add Chr, Spline, Time. Let's see if I manage it)

15th April 2003, 07:34

The only required file with the latest CVS binary should be devil.dll (libs are always compile-time only). You're right about the meaning of that VDub error message, though -- perhaps we should stick it in a FAQ somewhere?

WarpEnterprises

17th April 2003, 22:52

Which runtime library is the right one for a plugin / does it matter / when and how?

- singlethreaded
- multithreaded
- multithreaded DLL

Could anyone list the order of the libs and includes needed to compile Avisynth?

I installed XP and re-installed VS6 and lost all those settings.

Even just compiling my filters I get an undefined in _aligned_malloc()

I remember this error depends upon the order of the libs or includes since older versions of whaterver the storage module is don't have it.

But some of my filters will crash on P4's if I don't use that.

You need the Platform SDK installed.

trbarry

27th April 2003, 05:57

Darn.

I could have sworn I pointed both libs and includes at both the DXSDK and the Platform SDK (from Win/Me) before posting, in some order. I just wasn't sure which one had the _aligned_malloc().

But I'll go check again since half of my stuff doesn't compile yet.

trbarry

27th April 2003, 06:47

Okay, never mind.

I had not reinstalled the processor pack yet. I guess that's where the _aligned_malloc() comes from.

Google is your friend. ;)

Okay guys,

What have I got wrong?

I've installed VS 6 SP5 + Processor pack, DX 8.1 & Feb 2003 Platform SDK. Great I can even build a VirtualDub.

Now I try to build AviSynth.dll from the source tarballs (2.08, 2.50 & recent CVS) without mods and get the following error(s) :-

Yes the GUID's are being initted twice. I can hack "source.cpp" to remove "#include <initguid.h>" (which is line 666 :devil: in the 2.08 source) and get clean and working builds.

But thats not the point of the exercise.

How do I build the same way you do, without hacking the source?

I know I'll kick myself when I find the fix.

You should probably adjust you libraries. My current setup:

Tools/Options/Directories/Libraries (http://cultact-server.novi.dk/kpo/avisynth/libs.png)

and headers just for the record.

Tools/Options/Directories/Include (http://cultact-server.novi.dk/kpo/avisynth/include.png)

Remember - the order of the headers/libraries matter!
Also remember to "Recompile all" after changing these directories.

There is usually some black magic involved in getting AviSynth (and ff***) to compile ;) However I don't seem to remember any nasty copy/overwrite stuff this time

IanB

18th June 2003, 14:40

@sh0dan

Thanks, getting the order compatible does the trick. :D

For future reference (in text) Include's and Lib's :-

1. DXSDK
2. Microsoft SDK
3. VC98
4. VC98\MFC
5. VC98\ATL

I have the complete Visual Studio .NET (7.0) installed, and I haven't installed anything else than the defaults from the CD distribution. Is the "Platform SDK" some 3:rd party stuff, or what is it, exactly?

Anders. MrPiercer,

You only need DirectX 8.1 (let this thread know how it compiles with DX9)

"Microsoft Platform SDK - February 2003"
"English Disc 0004.7 May 2003"

Is the title from the May MSDN release.

The CD is a Web tree clone so I guess it must be available @ msdn.microsoft.com somewhere. The base SDK is over 110 Mb!!! bTry http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/ or search for "Platform SDK" on microsoft.com

It compiled perfectly with Visual Studio .NET 7.0 and both the accompanying MS compiler and with Intel C++ 7.1 Enterprise compiler. I used the Core SDK from MSDN downloaded 2003-03-23 and the DirectX 9.0 SDK from MSDN, same date.

I also tried with compiler flag optimized for Pentium 4.

All the various build logs and resulting DLL files are posted at my website, found on http://www.norrbring.biz/AviSynth

Heehe... :) Well, I haven't done squat about ANY other setting than shifting btw. compilers and PII / P4 optimization in the project properties in VS. Perhaps some other settings would help out? I don't know, I'm certainly no wiz with the Intel compiler, I got it just last week... (And YES, I hate manuals!)

Anyway, is there something I can do to help out, just let me know!

One most disturbing thing I noticed is that if I use VS' "Configuration manager" to add a config other than the "release", "debug" and "profile" (Well, I made a new, called it "P4" and chose "Copy settings" and copied from "Release") then the project won't compile!? Are there any directory paths hardcoded in the code instead of using VS' variables?

Later! :cool:

Good one ;) I'll fix!

I should probably also have a look at the int64 -> int casts - most likely all of them are audio functions. "audio.cpp" should have another workover one of these days.

On a related compiling note, when I try to compile code for a filter that includes the isse_scenechange assembler functions used in Avisynth I get the following error:

psadbw mm0,mm1

warning C4405 (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/vccore/html/C4405.asp): 'mm0' : identifier is reserved word

Profiles simply provide a convienient means to select build options, like "/D DEBUG". Look under "Project Settings" to see what options are actually part of each profile.

The standard profiles are :-

"Win32 Debug" does a full debug build and uses debug versions of the libraries. (Maximum checking, slower, development)

"Win32 Profile" does a release style build but links with profiling libraries. (check with Sh0dan how to make use of these tools)

"Win32 Release" does a full release build and uses full release grade libraries. (Maximum speed, for normal use)

I'm now succesfully compiling the avisynth in any configuration. I just have to make sure that the softwire.lib and devil.lib are in the list and set the link option to /NODEFAULTLIB:"LIBC".

Softwire is cool...

sh0dan

8th August 2003, 09:54

@IanB: Actually I have never used the "Profile Configuration". For profiling, it is possible to use the Release builds. I don't know who created the Profile Conf, but it just left it there, if anyone uses it.

It should probably just be removed, unless someone objects.

Yes - SoftWire rocks!

We should mention here what sh0dan wrote as CVS comment:

2003/9/18 16:2:48 - Additional compilation requirements: DirectX Directshow baseclasses, found in the samples directory - add to both library and header directory.

With "samples directory" the directory

DXF\DXSDK\samples\Multimedia\DirectShow\BaseClasses

in the DX-SDK is meant ( I was desparately seeking in the CVS directories :) )

But anyhow: it won't compile, there are many warnings and some LINKER errors:

24th September 2003, 17:05

Yeah - I had troubles with that one too. I seem to remember I fould an old strmbase.lib (strmbasd.lib in debug mode) somewhere else in my library path. Be sure to only have the one in

DXSDK\samples\Multimedia\DirectShow\BaseClasses\Debug

and

DXSDK\samples\Multimedia\DirectShow\BaseClasses\Release

referenced, and be sure to add both to your Tools/Options/Directories/Libraries I hate the black voodoo with C compilers - especailly linker errors. Unfortunately I can only say that it also took me a few hours to get this compiling on my second machine.

21st October 2003, 20:53

You need to compile the project in the BaseClasses project in Release and debug mode - this will produce the libraries.

has someone else compiled a recent AviSynth version?
I made those libs but still no luck.
now it complains about missing baseclasses in ctlutil.h and many more things.

I can understand that sh0dan can't remember all steps if it is working but everbody else should have the same problem.
I made a clean setup of my system and the problems were quite the same.

With the latest CVS I cannot even get to linking.
- I compiled the strmbase.lib / strmbasd.lib
- I added the directories to VC
- compiling avi_source.cpp works
- compiling directshow_source.cpp won't work, the first errors come from the <streams.h> include:

Yes "avisynth_c" added a bunch of warnings. I think I'll have a look soon - and also to fix the crash-on-unload with SmartDecimate. None of the warnings mean anything.

The Directshow warning (_imp__InterlockedIncrement) is unavoidable, but doesn't mean anything. I guess it could be avoided using a #pragma.

@WarpE: I haven't experienced that problem (and you're right - only the header files are used at this stage). I sound quite incredible that it doesn't know what DWORD_PTR is.

WarpEnterprises

18th November 2003, 23:37

It works!

Here is what I did.

- there are some .H files in the MS Visual Studio AND the MS SDK directory, with the ones in the SDK beeing the newer and intended.

- I removed the ...Visual Studio... dirs from the header directories (extras/options...) but some .H-files are NOT present in the SDK

==>
There have to be BOTH entries but the SDK paths and the path to ...SDK\SAMPLES\MULTIMEDIA\DIRECTSHOW\BASECLASSES\DEBUG must come BEFORE the ...Visual Studio paths (for both compiling strmbasd.lib AND AviSynth) to have higher search priority.
Then all you have to do is hoping that all newer .H and .LIB are present and no old one is accidently taken.

My paths are then:

header directories:
C:\Programme\Microsoft SDK\Include
c:\PROGRAMME\MICROSOFT SDK\SAMPLES\MULTIMEDIA\DIRECTSHOW\BASECLASSES
C:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\INCLUDE
C:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\MFC\INCLUDE (needed. What is MFC in AviSynth?)
C:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\ATL\INCLUDE (not needed for AviSynth)

library directories:
C:\Programme\Microsoft SDK\Lib
c:\PROGRAMME\MICROSOFT SDK\SAMPLES\MULTIMEDIA\DIRECTSHOW\BASECLASSES\DEBUG
C:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\LIB
C:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\MFC\LIB (not needed for AviSynth)

Hope this helps and is reproducable.

WarpEnterprises wrote two interesting questions that were never answered as far as I can tell on this thread. Which runtime library is the right one for a plugin / does it matter / when and how? and What is MFC I use cl.exe /MT to link with libcmt.lib and link.exe /NODEFAULTLIB:msvcrt /NODEFAULTLIB:libc which prevents linking with msvcrt.lib and libc.lib. Otherwise avisynth wants to link with all three versions of the common runtime library. The alternative is to use /FORCE:MULTIPLE to force linking with mutiple versions of the lib functions.

If I compile strmbase.lib with /MT, my linker wants me to use the same threading scheme with avisynth.

Is this right, or do different modules within avisynth need to link with different versions of the runtime?

I would like to see this sticky continue to grow. New compilation issues that crop up on every new version of avisynth. Yet nothings been discussd on this thread since lase November. For instance, I had to comment out two lines in the code to get it to compile://GetSampleEnumPins::GetSampleEnumPins(GetSample* _parent, int _pos); //HRESULT __stdcall GetSampleEnumPins::Next(ULONG cPins, IPin** ppPins, ULONG* pcFetched); in directshow_source.h. I don't believe it matters whether you comment it out of the header or the code file, only that it does not get stated twice.

Finally, are the two files avisynth.opt and avisynth.ncb somehow nessesary to properly compile avisynth? Since I only use the commandline tools, cl.exe, ml.exe, rc.exe, and link.exe, I am not sure whether those files are being used in my compilation. This works fine for standalone filters, but I am still not sure if it works for avisynth itself.

I tried to compile avs 2.54 (and suceeded after a ...long time)

If that can help other people,
I'll resume what the thread is saying,
more or less...

(maybe someone should put the infos in the doc?)

relevant information for compiling with VC6

* Install visual studio (containing VC6)

edit: warning the links are for the US version of Visual Studio,
if you are using a non US version, get the specific version...
* Install Visual Studio SP5 (130mb)
http://download.microsoft.com/download/vstudio60ent/SP5/Wideband-Full/WIN98Me/EN-US/VS6sp5.exe
* Install Visual C++ Processor Pack (1mb)
check http://download.microsoft.com/download/vb60ent/Update/6/W9X2KXP/EN-US/vcpp5.exe for links

EDIT: with 2.55 version, the following is no longer needed...

* Install Platform SDK (feb 2003) (31mb for core sdk - minimal)
http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/

* Install DirectX 8.1 SDK (160mb)
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/release.asp?ReleaseID=33706

And then you are all good for the needed download...

* Recompile \<DXSDK directory >\samples\Multimedia\DirectShow\BaseClasses\baseclasses.dsp
in order to avoid a nasty bug (in release & debug mode)

* Go in VC++, Tools, options, Directories :

There check .h (headers) section:

a working path order is :
...DXSDK\SAMPLES\MULTIMEDIA\DIRECTSHOW\BASECLASSES
...DXSDK\INCLUDE
...MICROSOFT SDK\INCLUDE
...Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\INCLUDE
...Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\MFC\INCLUDE
...Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\ATL\INCLUDE

next step go in Library :
...DXSDK\SAMPLES\MULTIMEDIA\DIRECTSHOW\BASECLASSES\DEBUG
...DXSDK\SAMPLES\MULTIMEDIA\DIRECTSHOW\BASECLASSES\RELEASE
...DXSDK\lib
...Microsoft SDK\Lib
...Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Lib
...Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Lib
...Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\MFC\LIB

then you might be able to compile it :)

I hope it will help somebody...

Just wanted to add a note, that from 2.55 it should be considerably easier to compile AviSynth, as the DirectShow stuff has been moved to a separate plugin.

This eliminates all DirectX stuff and probably the Platform SDK.

You can do a CVS checkout if you want the new code.

Just checked with removing PSDK and not installing DirectX 8.1 SDK here...
2.55 compiled fine on this computer.

Nice work sh0dan :)

I thought I'd add something here, I can confirm that the DXDSK and the Platform SDK are not needed anymore. Until now, all we needed from the processor pack was ml.exe for the assembler module. I didn't need it because I used the one from the DDK SDK that I have. There are three header files that are needed now that were not needed before and since they have no corresponding libs all I needed to solve the problem was download them from the internet. They are Intel files emmintrin.h, xmmintrin.h, and mmintrin.h.

Maybe they are part of the Intel compiler, but in that case a lot more people would have trouble.

Normally there would be a corresponding link error following an include error and this would not be enough, but in this case it is. As the names imply they probably define types that make it easier to use mmx or sse2 without out writing in assembler.

This all started because audio.cpp now includes emmintrin.h.

Getting the processor pack is not really a problem,
Its size is inferior to 2mb.

What was dreadful was to get DSDK pack, just to compile one filter...
(and if people did like i did, getting the wrong version pack, it's worse :)

esby

PS: I have no intel compiler installed here, so ... :)

23rd March 2004, 23:34

The processor pack is the stumbling block for those of us without access to the bigs boys version of MS VC++.

But then again, maybe if we can't pay then we shouldn't be allowed to play in the big game stakes :p

damn, so true...
never noticed this 'block' indeed...

then I am wondering if providing the missing file(s) is legal or not...

After a successful compile, I get an error when trying to play the avs file. Is there a step missing when installing AviSynth.dll or is it a bad compile?

@dandragonrage

All your missing externals come from the standard template library which must be included with .NET. (as with every C++ compiler)

I do not know if you have to link it as a lib or if mere includes will do.
Anyway you can try :
#include <string>
#include <stdexcept>

dandragonrage

30th April 2004, 13:21

None of that worked. I also tried point VC.net to the lib directory of VC6 and copying the linker library include stuff over but that also did not help.

scmccarthy

30th April 2004, 20:54

@dandragonrage

You are not linking with the C runtime library due to the conflict with libc.lib. Using NODEFAULTLIB would get rid of the error messages, but I am not certain if that would solve the problem since it does not work for me.

Stephen

dandragonrage

1st May 2004, 00:25

Using nodefaultlib gets rid of the warning but doesn't help the errors.

scmccarthy

1st May 2004, 17:35

@dandragonrage,

Maybe the lib environment variable points to a version of libcmt.lib that is incompatible with the includes you use.

Or maybe the version of C runtime library you link with is not the same one that SoundTouch.lib links to. Really the second answer is more likely.

Stephen

I have the same compile errors as dandragonrage. I'm using VSNet 2003. I've tried (of course) using the /NODEFAULTLIB:C option to no avail. Has anyone else been able to get a working VS .NET 2003 build?

Thanks!

did you try to not link vs msvcprt.lib ?

It's weird anyway, as far as my understanding goes, I thought that STL code would not be exported from any lib...

I suggest you try replacing VC7.1 standard library by STLPort from www.stlport.org (download and set it in your include path) and recompile.

ada2001

6th May 2004, 22:14

Yeah, it's deeply wierd. I had tried unlinking msvcprt.lib and it really messed things up so I figured the previous errors were probably easier to fix. When I get some time, I'll start looking at this again.

Bidoche

14th May 2004, 19:52

I think I got the solution this time :

Some guy posted about the same probleme in the forums at www.stlport.org.
He finally fixed it by creating a empty project and importing his files into it, rather than using a conversion from VC6.

@WilbertWhat am I doing wrong?Nothing! The release SoundTouch library has been built without symbols (DAMN!!):angry: You will have to build release avisynth.dll without symbols until some kind soul rebuilds it and puts it in CVS.

Look in the [link] tabpane of properties/settings turn off symbols:mad:

IanB

Wilbert

6th July 2004, 21:26

Sorry, I can't find that option :D

Somewhere under Project -> Settings -> C/C++ -> Preprocessor -> check "Undefine all symbols"

I guess that's the wrong one, because that doesn't work.

In MSVC6:

A thought, must AviSynth be compiled only as a debug release? Does it work as a regular release?

Stephen

stickboy

9th July 2004, 19:33

IIRC the debug DLL is couple megabytes in size... the release DLL is only several hundred kilobytes.

Clearly the release version is the one that's distributed.

Awhile back, though, I couldn't get the debug DLL working... maybe that's what you're thinking of?

Just crab the latest source from CVS. It works now (release build) without doing anything special. Sh0dan updated the project file a few days ago.

21st July 2004, 23:08

I can confirm it is much easier to get AviSynth to compile now vs. the last time I tried :), especially with vs.net. It worked pretty much straight away, converted to vc 7 project on load (first time that has never screwed up for me :D). Few errors from the soundtouch lib, I didn't try IanB's suggestion for it but just compiled the soundtouch lib myself and everything worked fine. No errors on compiling avisynth, but 179 warnings... mainly all small stuff like type conversion - possible loss of data, no emms at end of asm function, etc... That was using vs.net 2002, directx 9 sdk, platform sdk, but I guess the directx sdk and platform sdk are no longer needed.

I am trying to compile 2.5.5 sources (and I tried the old ones, the same error happens). I am getting errors in the convert_a.asm file. All of them look similar to this one:

convert_a.asm(258) : error A2070: invalid instruction operands
YUV2RGB_INNER_LOOP(8): Macro Called From
YUV2RGB_PROC(33): Macro Called From

I am using VC7.1. Seeing the recent posts that mentions the SDKs are not necessary anymore, I did not install anything extra. Probably it is something very simple but even after reading all the posts in this thread, I am not seeing it (I am no good with asm).

Any help is appreciated.

The post right above mine (from tritical) indicates it is possible to compile with VC7.x. I was hoping a step-by-step guide on how to do it, like

1- Install VC7.x
2- Download source.
3- Download ??? (if necessary)
4- Open project.
5- ???
6- Build

tritical

8th January 2005, 09:38

It is definitely possible, just did it last night :D. It should work fine as long as you have the Platform sdk installed. I'm not really sure if you need the directx sdk anymore or not (I think not). But for me it works fine just doing this:

1.) download source
2.) open workspace and convert to vc 7 project
3.) set configuration to release
4.) build project

EDIT: About needing the platform sdk, I'm not sure if you do or don't. I have it installed and the above process works fine for me.

WarpEnterprises

8th January 2005, 22:19

the DX SDK is not necessary. It was needed only for DirectShowSource which is now a plugin.

Which source are you compiling? There's no way that 2.55 sources compile as you download them. Not to mention many warnings about data truncation, here's what I noticed when I tried to compile the source:

1- The custom build command for the asm file has syntax errors
2- The icon file is missing
3- An executable for the post build step is not there.
4- One of the libs supplied is compiled with libc, the rest is msvcrt. I downloaded that lib and compiled it as well...

As you may see, I got it compiled after fixing things and changing the build somewhat. But I would like to know about a source that would compile "out of the box"...

esby

10th January 2005, 04:17

well
I posted that answer,
because last time I tried
I stopped at this error,
and since I have vc6.2 installed too, that's not really a problem for me to compile it...
Now I don't know how to solve this.

esby

tritical

10th January 2005, 04:32

My mistake. The source I was talking about (in both cases, now and a few months ago) was a cvs checkout, not a dl of the source zip. So just ingore my comments.

esby

10th January 2005, 04:35

well I did a cvs checkout before posting.
(the problem is still the same.)

esby

tritical

10th January 2005, 05:04

ok, wanted to figure this out for sure so just did it (this is for vs.net 2003):

1.) fresh cvs checkout (project file, libs, everything)
2.) opened workspace in vs.net 2003, and selected "yes to all" on the convert projects popup
3.) set configuration to release
4.) had to do the usual thing for the custom build step command line on the asm file, which is take out the quotation marks
5.) the soundtouch lib still has problems, replaced it with my own build
6.) compile and it works, has the usual warnings but those are fine

Hi,

is it possible to compile Avisynth plugins with MinGW? Recently I tried SimpleSample and got errors for a integer typedef (uint32_t iirc).
Now I tried with a newer Version (3.10) it worked.

But if i try to load the dll in an avisynth Script i get a "Script Error: there is no function named: SimpleSample"

Is it in general impossible to compile avs Filters with MinGW, or are there special options to use?

Thanks again,

17th June 2005, 12:02

sorry I was a little to fast to reply. You will have to set the Runtime Library under C/C++ codegeneration to Multi-threaded DLL when you compile the SoundTouch lib with VS .NET 2003 (you should use the same compiler you want to compile avisynth with). If that doesn't work I will send the file to you.

Oooooooohhhhhh.... yeah.... That's all folks...!
Thank's tsp (I'm like 'a little to fast replies..'...)

Now I compile succesfully AviSynth project ... but comenting some lines on "avs-soundtouch.cpp" :

Lines like:

gotsamples = samplers[n]->receiveSamples(passbuffer, BUFFERSIZE - samples_out);
samplers[n]->putSamples(passbuffer, BUFFERSIZE);
...

This lines make this errors:

17th June 2005, 13:57

hmm forgot about that one to. There are two solution. 1) use the latest CVS source or 2) change the calls to receiveSamples(passbuffer,blablalba) to receiveSamples((short*)passbuffer,blablalba) and putSamples(passbuffer,blablalba) to putSamples((short*)passbuffer,blablalba). This will make it compile but I'm not entirely sure how it would affect the sound

I'm not having much luck compiling. I've done a CVS checkout, installed the DirectX 9 SDK and the Platform SDK. Under Visual Studio 6 (SP5, Processor Pack) I can't compile the DirectShow plugin, and under Visual Studio 2003 .NET I can't compile the DirectShow plugin or Avisynth itself.

Would it make a difference if I compiled them under VS6?

Hi tsp,

Thanks for the help. That's got me past that hurdle, now I'm stuck on:

Which looks like the problem ruanova was having (albeit in Spanish!). I'm just trying to compile the Soundtouch 1.2.1 library, but getting an "ambiguous call to overloaded function"... I'll keep you posted...

.................

Yes, that's done it. I had to change a 2 to 2.0 in the soundtouch source code to make it compile, but that's sorted out the problems on compiling Avisynth.

Any ideas on the DirectShowSource compile problem? That's still there...

Many thanks,
PGB.

pgb: I just compiled avisynth with visual c++ 2005 Express Edition. That was really a pain because the compiler is much more strict than vc++ 6 and vc++ NET 2003 by default.

you will need to change the the functions the error points to from something like this:
pow(2,bufferblablalba) to this pow((float)2,(int)bufferblablabla).

Thanks very much, tsp and Wilbert. I've got avisynth compiling happily under VS .NET 2003. I think I'll hold off on the 2005 edition till I have to use it for work!

All the best, guys,

I am using vs 2003 with intel cpp complier 9.0, first I get lots complier error,atfer change the special source files complie by cl.exe,modify the asm build command,complier error disappeared,and get link error like some posts here.

then I have download SoundTouch 1.3.0 and replaced soundtouch.lib and soundtouch.h,
and get the avisynth.dll/TCPDeliver.dll generated successful.

when compling DirectShowSource project,
I Get this Error
directshow_source.cpp(296): error: identifier "lstrcpyWInternal" is undefined
It's defined in wxutil.h in baseclasses directionary.
Is this defination replaced sdk's lstrcpyw def?
I have tried to include windows.h after #include <streams.h> in directshow_source.h but it take no help.

I have no idear now,Is there some tips? thx

The newest platform sdk(2003) seems to comment out APIs in wxutil.h
from the following line,

// these internal routines and the binary will not run on Win95.
so removing comment out, it may work fine.

did you recompile soundtouch 1.3.0?

IanB

16th June 2006, 05:55

Please state which compiler you are using when asking for help!

The current code base is explicitly for Visual C++ 6 with the Processor Pack add on.

Using both 2003, 2005 and 2005 Express compilers is possible but will require some changes. Please feel free to openly discuss any issues you find so other may benefit from your experiences.

Be aware the 2005 RT environment changes the way system exceptions are handled and processed. So your builds may not respond as expected to error conditions.

If your filter has assembler, you need MASM:

My filter doesn't but avisynth does.
Thanks.

EDIT : I can't install it, MASM doesn't recognize my VS2005Express (surely because it's the french version).
Well then "Best regards to Microsoft.".

You need an updated Win2003 Platform SDK (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=A55B6B43-E24F-4EA3-A93E-40C0EC4F68E5&displaylang=en) with every version of VS2005, that might be why MASM is complaining. And even if it isn't, you don't need MASM for filters with inline asm, which is the vast majority. (You also don't need to recompile Avisynth to develop filters.) However, you can still get ahold of it by manually extracting it from the installer.

It didn't help to install MASM.
Now, I have a solution with the avisynth project and my filter's project but when I try to generate my project only, files from the avisynth project aren't found (ie : avisynth.h).

EDIT : I got through it the heavy way, including each and every dir of avisynth in the directories to include.
I'm sure there's a more convenient yet to be discovered somehow hidden way to do it.

foxyshadis

10th July 2006, 20:32

I usually just start my projects from an existing filter, if you look at their sources the only part of avisynth included is avisynth.h (which usually should be in the same folder as your filter). Simplesample is a good way to start, it should compile a working filter right out of the box.

I'm having trouble building from the source for 2.5.7-RC3.

I get this error when building DirectShowSource():
avisynth\src\plugins\directshowsource\directshow_source.cpp(590) : error C3861: 'lstrcpyWInternal': identifier not found

Now, I know someone is going to say that it's in wxutil.h but it's commented out (by Microsoft!) and for a reason. It's not available in the library so it will just result in an unresolved symbol.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you...

Perhaps, more importantly, when building the avisynth project, in particular, I get the following error:

YUV2RGB_PROC MACRO procname,uyvy,rgb32

; ...lots of code in between...

How do I get my assembler to assemble this?
Thank you...

It seems, that I know aswer to your second question only,
about convert_a.asm
Probably you use masm8. I fixed convert_a.asm in avisynth2.6 branch for masm8 compatibility. See link http://avisynth2.cvs.sourceforge.net/avisynth2/avisynth/src/?pathrev=avisynth_2_6

Okay, something seriously weird is going on.

First of all, I guess I should confess that I'm trying to compile Avisynth using the very latest MS development environment, VC++ 2005 Pro. There's absolutely no reason why this shouldn't work but it's not working.

Now, the weird thing is that the project is trying its damndest to link against libc.lib. There are actually two weird things. First, I have no libc.lib library. You'd think that I would have a copy of the standard C library but it's nowhere to be found on my system. Secondly, the project desperately wants to link against this library and ignores anything else I have to say. I have specified that this library should be ignored but the linker is, in fact ignoreing me and tries to link against it anyways! What the hell is that!

I have no idea what's going on anymore and the world makes no sense whatsoever and no one else in the world is experiences what I am if google and the internet mean anything at all...

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you...

8th January 2007, 22:34

official Avisynth 2.5.7 compiler environment is VC6.
Other is not officially supported.
But some people can compile it with vc7 - vc8 (?)
For other compiler you must recompile some libraries (soundtouch etc).
It is partial mess, but it is so. This world is not perfect. :)
Try re-read whole this thread.
Migration to more new compiler of next version 2.6 is currently considered and discussed.

Final question: WHY you want compiler avisynth? :)Good question. I want to try something really crazy... I'm a little afraid to announce it prematurely but I suppose there's little harm...

I want to change the Avisynth language syntax. I want to change it in a very big way. In fact, I'm planning on embedding Ruby (http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/) into Avisynth as the language implementation.

Pretty crazy, eh?

Jocko Homo

8th January 2007, 23:42

The only reason I have a debug avisynth.dll sitting around is it makes it a lot easier to debug memory leaks in plugins (caused by using the API wrong, not just forgetting a delete/free) and places where the crash occurs when the plugin calls avisynth with bad input.

You have to put "LIBC" in the "ignored specific library" in linker input, otherwise that happens. libc.lib won't work. I guess you already got all the compiler errors worked around.That's what I was talking about when I said weird things are happening. I did put libc.lib in the "ignore specific library" linker option and the linker chose to ignore me and link against it anyway! What the hell is that? Talk about a compiler bug...

Note.
Recently some files on CVS tree were changed from being binary type to normal text type:

avisynth.dsw, avisynth.dsp, pfc.dsp

It is not a problem for fresh CVS update to new empty local folder.

But if you update to existing local folders with cvs (hidden) subfolder, these files will be updated as (now wrong) binary type, you will get unix LF instead of CRLF lines ends.
Bad news: MS Visual Studio do not understand files with LF.

Reason: Text files are always stored as unix type (with LF) at CVS server and automatically converted from and to windows type (CRLF) by TortoiseCVS (CVSNT).
Binary files are not converted.

Workaround 1. Edit and change your file locally from LF to CRLF with some text editor Ultraedit, Akelpad, etc. But it is temporary solution.

Workaround 2 (Better):
1. Go to your hidden CVS subfolder and edit "Entries" file,
delete "-kb" from the line (or remove this line completely):
/avisynth.dsw/1.6/Sat Sep 8 20:32:55 2007/-kb/
2. Delete your local avisynth.dsw
Same for other files (avisynth.dsp, pfc.dsp)
3. Update from CVS server.
New file will have correct type.

I've been using AVS for a good bit of time and wanted to see what was coming up in to-be-released official versions so i started about compiling it on my machine.

I've successfully done the current CVSs of the 2.5 and 2.6 branches in MSVC9 (.NET 2008), but am having some problems with 3.0 since the boost library doesn't seem to work with MSVC9.
Is there any workaround for this, because i don't want to have to get MSVC8 for AVS 3.0 when i have previous versions working in MSVC9.

I just built 2.6 and am going to start experimenting, but have been using 2.5.8 without any problems.

Any help would be appreciated.

@ajax -- were you able to compile all of Avisynth under boost? What version of avisynth did you use, and can you share any details about the process? Were you also able to compile plugins? Actually, I'm more interested in the plugins than the main avisynth program itself, and while there's lots of information about creating plugins, I'm still not sure what tool/tools I'd need to create one for 2.57 or 2.58.

things i can remember doing are
aften_static

Custom Build Step
Command Line > Remove directory from nasm(w).exe
- (should be in the vc++ bin directories, so shouldn't need the directory for it)

"asm_support.h" non existent, use #undef HAVE_CPU_CAPS_DETECTION
before #ifdef

libmp3lame
Source Files > Asm
all files > discrepency in 'nasm.exe' vs other projects using 'nasmw.exe'
commands switched to
nasm -f win32 -I i386\ -DWIN32 "$(InputPath)" -o $(OutDir)\$(InputName).obj
to build properly

C/C++ > General
Additional Include Directories > add > .

SoundOut

add #include <limits.h>
change MIN_INT to INT_MIN
