Title: Rogue Like Tutorial on Wikipedia
Post by: favi on January 10, 2020, 10:36:11 PM

Hi,

I'm having problems compiling.  I'm a hobbyist when it comes to C++.

http://www.roguebasin.com/index.php?title=Complete_roguelike_tutorial_using_C%2B%2B_and_libtcod_-_extra_1:_about_editors_and_IDE (http://www.roguebasin.com/index.php?title=Complete_roguelike_tutorial_using_C%2B%2B_and_libtcod_-_extra_1:_about_editors_and_IDE)

I'm using codelite.

"mingw32-make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop."

I'd like to get past compiling errors.  I think I would have more fun then.

The easiest way is that you have IDE that comes with a compiler so you don't have to worry about makefiles etc. Code::Blocks is quite ok, but I would recommend Visual Studio Community (free version) if you are on Windows. Also, you should probably check Codelite's readme/manual/etc. to see how to compile and run a project from editor if it's possible.
