Cerberus X v2018-04-21 released

[Gerdich]

Works!!!

... and how do I include external functions?

 

[MikeHart]

You mean c++ code?

The same way like the agk module does it.

 

[Gerdich]

Is it possible to use another compiler than microsoft?

 

[MikeHart]

With AGK? No. TGC only provides MSVC compatible libs.
If you want to use mojo/mojo2 then you can use MingW.

 

[MikeHart]

Just to let you know guys, CX is now available for OSX again. I have concentrated on getting a release done, so no bug fixing for this platform in this release. But that will come soon.

 

[Gerdich]

You did a very good job with CX for AppGameKit! What does mean "for OSX". Is it AGK for OSX?

 

[MikeHart]

Thank you!

No, not for now. I had problems building a release of Cerberus X for OSX due to incompatible hardware and software.
So Cerberus X was lately available only for Windows. OSX and Linux was missing.

But now you can code on Windows and OSX again. Linux will hopefully follow in the near future.

The AGK Desktop target for OSX will come definitely, but it isn't functional in this OSX release.

 

[Gerdich]

Good news!!

One wishful feature of the far future: If Cerberus X could produce also the basic code of tier1 that would be very useful for testing on all devices.

Mmh, how would you translate the OOP parts of the CX code to AGKs Tier1 code?

 

[Gerdich]

Yes, you are right. Agk "OOP" Tier 2 code is in fact very flat and translates mostely pure C code. But what can we do if anybody writes High Level Cerberus Code, with real OOP? I didn't think about that. In theory every C++ code can be reduces to a von Neumann Architecture. But in the practice this may be difficult.

@MikeHart : I've had a spare bit of time to build a Linux version dated 2018-05-24.
Built on Linux Mint 18.3

As Ted complains about the use of override and final. You need to add CONFIG += C++11 to the ted.pro file before compiling.

 

[MikeHart]

Thank you @dawlane, that is awesome!!!

 

[MikeHart]

And its uploaded to itch.io

 

[dawlane]

@MikeHart : The only thing I wouldn't be able to check on Linux would be AGK as I don't own the current version.

@MikeHart : I've added a few tweaks to the rebuildall.sh file. You can now pass a parameter of either qt4, qt5 or the path to the bin directory to the Qt SDK kit you wish to use.

#Quick and nasty linux shell rebuild all

[Gerdich]

Awsome! Dawlane and Mike Hart, you are a wonderful team!
QT on Windows could be nice too! (MingW+QT5)

 

[MikeHart]

You mean porting TED to mingw and QT5? Why?
