i need to take the executable to another pc!

Postby oscarml » 30 Jun 2005 09:15

Hello,

I have cross-compiled VLC over windows, and I've got a 16.1MB exe file. I copied only that file in another PC, with the same OS (W2000 pro) that the PC where I compiled the program, but it doesn't work. Do I need another library or something else?what libraries do i need?

thanks

make package-win32-zip will make a zip file with all that you need to run VLC

it falls:

zip -r vlc-0.8.2-test1-win32.zip vlc-0.8.2-test1
/bin/bash: line 1: zip: command not found
make: *** [package-win32-base-zip] Error 127

i've reinstalled cygwin bzip utility (I think it was so), but it doesn't work.

In spite of this it have created a directory called "vlc-0.8.2-test1" where there is an executable.
I move that directory to another PC and I launch the program. It seems to work, but when I open a file it crashes. That isn't the strangest thing: the menu bar is in SPanish! I don't know why. The posible causes ?:

My PC (where i run make package-win32-zip) has installed a version in SPanish (i installed it with an executable directly and it is 0.8.1 version). But also I downloaded the source code for modifying it and it's in English (version 0.8.2).

The PC where I move the directory vlc-test1 had installed the 0.8.1 version, in spanish, but it was uninstalled a long time ago ;)

DO you know what's the problem about the zip crash and about the mistery of the menu bar?

Thank you very much
