But where is the configure script the documentaion refers to?
INSTALL says to execute
./configure [options]
to build Celestia, but there is NO configure command in CVS...
How do I perform a build?
Thanks.
Accessed CVS, downloaded the source...

question?
is it possible to compile version celestia-1.3.2.tar.gz, downloaded from sourceforge, with the microsoft vc++ toolkit 2003?
in celutil the file formatnum.cpp gets a fatal error.
in celengine, meshmanager.cpp, render.cpp tokenizer.cpp all get fatal errors.
and so on. just wondering?
i have little experience building in windows. most of the building i did was thru linux. linux compiles that version with no problems.
i wasn't sure were to post this question so i put it here.

I have no problems (other than lots of warning messages) compiling Celestia from CVS using Microsoft Visual Studio 2003 Academic with the Celestia CVS script makerelease.bat. Academic is the same as Professional but has an additional CD with software for communication between student and teacher.
I did have to write a script to add quite a few VS directories to the search path, though. It's at home and I'm not, so I can't provide a copy right now.

selden,
I can compile Celestia from CVS too, using the toolkit mentioned above in this forum.
I had a problem compiling Celestia 1.3.2, the source code that is under the download link for linux on the Celestia home page. That same code compiled fine with gcc. Thats the Celestia I use while in linux. The stable version.
Maybe I'm forgetting a step because its not packaged for windows?
If the c++ toolkit can't compile the stable version then how is it compiling CVS?
Anyhow its no big deal. I just want to make sure that the compiler is not introducing hidden bugs.
