3.0 progress

[smet]

Finally got it configured on Ubuntu Gutsy.... was missing some packages, especially libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev and the circular_buffer thingy....

Got it configured with this:

./configure --with-boost-includedir-path=/usr/include --with-boost-lib-name=boost_thread-gcc41-mt-1_34_1

All packages are from Ubuntu Gutzy, excerpt the circular_buffer. That doesn't seem to exist. Found a download in this thread...

...but I also end up with:

make: *** [parser/grammar/statement.o] Error 1

in ../../src/parser/grammar/statement.cpp:198

Funny thing is, that this is the second last line of the file, and there is nothing on that line....

Further investigations turned out (I believe) that the problem is somehow in line 165 of src/parser/grammar/statement.cpp

bind(&action::Check::TRecurseAllowed)(! self.termRecInfo)

It is, as far as I can figure out, some trouble with the "!" (negation?) of self.termRecInfo. Boost can't figure out how to convert this (tuple?) into a boolean, so it can negate it...
I'm very rusty in my C++, so any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Please help us! Please someone start up this one again... I was sad to find this:

Q5) How many developers are working on it?

None. The progress is stalled for a while now, and at the moment there is no hope for improvement. So if you want to help, drop a note here or at IRC.

/smet

P.S. Please help us!!! We need this on linux!
P.P.S. If I remove the "!" in line 165 (mentioned above) `make` is fine, but even I don't believe that's a solution ;)

Perhaps it was too ambitious.

I think the idea behind Avisynth is awesome.

I used 2.x for a very long time when I was on windows, but switching to Linux, I kind of lost avisynth. :(

I miss my old scripts!

Perhaps 2.x could be just improved incrementially and eventually a Linux port can be done of 2.x?

Just use wine and be happy :) (Avisynth 2.x has worked with wine since circa 2003 or so IIRC)

Even if Avisynth 2.x was to be brought over to *nix, you'd still have to bring over the plugins etc. as well, many of which aren't open source.

why are you bumping a thread that has been dead for over three years with a completely contentless "me too" post

if you want to discuss a linux port of 2.5 or 2.6 just start a new thread, jeez
