I think I'm being thick, but I can't figure out the 'configure' parameters to set it to use the PSP architecture as a target.

Anyone built it already, and can offer any help?

Thanks,

Fanj.

I haven't added a README.PSP to VisualBoyAdvance yet, but the configure params will be the same as those of any other SDL-based app (see SDL's README.PSP).

[Fanjita]

That's the tricky part, following the build process for SDL doesn't seem to work for me.

It looks like the 'configure' script doesn't include any support for '--host psp', so I'm guessing that either some files are missing, or there's another trick to it.

I'm not too familiar with how configure works, so although I'm playing around with trying to hack something together, I'm flailing around in the dark somewhat.

Uh... doing:

There is no autogen.sh included in the archive.
Yeah, looks like there is a file missing or the configure script is old.

pspgba_v1.1_src $ LDFLAGS="-L`psp-config --pspsdk-path`/lib -lc -lpspuser" ./configure --host psp --with-sdl-prefix=`psp-config --psp-prefix`

The config.log doesnt leave any more interesting messages:

Edit: Quick bit of hacking I've managed to get it a little further (possibly bad hacking, we'll see)

It now gets up to: (When ran with the command line above)
checking whether psp-g++ accepts -g... yes
checking dependency style of psp-g++... gcc3
checking for psp-ranlib... psp-ranlib
checking for nasm... no
checking for gzopen in -lz... no
configure: error: *** Cannot compile without zlib.

Archive? I was referring to the VBA source in SVN. If this is some other package then why don't you ask the author how to build it?

[danzel]

woops, my bad.
I meant the 'PSP GBA v1.1' source archive, didnt realize we had VBA in SVN.

I'll check that out and have a play, thanks :)

... and i had decided to make my own makefile, so i suggest you do the same...
