The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

Thanks for posting the version number of the exe. Just copying that SDL2_tff.dll to the external directtories solved the issue. wesnoth is up and running now in debug mode moving rather quickly. Thanks!!

I downloaded externalvc14 and have the path set correctly. If with Boost Libraries, The external dependencies and VS2015 meeting the requirements. I will try to use the download version of wesnoth and copy over the SDL libraries. That probably would be the most logical way to establish a proper meth...

I got it from the documentation and link for the external dependencies link. Is now Wesnoth in coordination with Boost_libraries 1_65? Or if you have a link please post it. Thanks

I have a screenshot attached. Whether trying to build any output version I am running into this popup error. Since I have no way to observe the symbols in this library and none are loaded. I was wondering if this could be a corrupt download of the external.zip archive. 'wesnoth.exe' (Win32): Loaded ...

Thanks 2 days ago that link was bringing back to the latest and greatest release. Hope I can build the regex 1-64 lib for win 64 and not have a conflict with the external/libs libboost regex 1_64. Giving multiply defined symbols. Thanks all!!

I have checked out boost home page and sourceforge and see that they are limited to 1_65 the latest and greatest. If you can advise me otherwise it would be greatly appreciated!!

I have compiled successfully wesnoth with boost libraries 1_65. When building the actual game wesnoth project for release it is looking for regex 1_64 that is in the external/libs directory. The only problem is if I had it there. It would produce a compiler error stating that it was multiply defined...

I believe that after the main build when building the wesnoth project. it requires these libboost_regex-vc140-mt-1_64.lib so I guess that I have to rev down the Booost Libraries and use the last release?

Didn't know with the current git pull and external-deps that there would be this other library that was regex from release 64. WIth that out of the way since you so nicely pointed out I had multiply defined symbols in a 65 release and 64 release then the error should be resolved. So if you are using...

Sorry about that last post. I didn't even see my own ouput from the compiler. I see the version differences between 1_65 and 1_64 stated. Since I am only using 1_65 and it is a fresh install I believe I am going to have to post to boost.org to see if they know why it has multiply defined symbols. It...

I am only using the latest and greatest 1_65_1 or whatever was just released. I haven't checked the source inclusively to see if regex is multiply defined. The post from stack exchange was using vc90 and and older version of boost. I was just wondering if anyone came across this issue as on stacktra...

Yup that was it first solution on stackoverflow resolved the missing library. Thanks again!!

Hope it helps, but wow coudn't get anything on Goolge.

Well adding the external dependencies and installing boost almost have me there. I feel building boost I am missing a step since libboost_bzip2-vc140-mt-1_65_1.lib is not being built. I have looked at Boost's website and can't find the exact user_config.jam file to use to set the directive which mig...
