It is a question, I want to find python26.dll. Where should I look? 'Cause I can't find it in my C:\\python26\ directory.
(I thought it was obvious... )
EDIT: I also tried looking for it in C:\\Windows\System32\ to no avail. I even did a search of my whole system and found nothing. Can somebody just put it here as an attachment because I think it wasn't installed.

Re: The Help Thread
python26.dll 2MB - assuming you're using a 64bit windows, make sure to rename it to python25.dll and replace the original one.
It should have been in your python26 directory...

Re: The Help Thread
Will do, thanks for the link.
Yeah I know, I googled it and it turns out Python 2.6 onwards has some bug that forgets to put in the .dll during installationpd wrote:It should have been in your python26 directory...

Re: The Help Thread
I'm getting an error when I try to build.
I followed all the instructions (downloaded the source, installed tortoise SVN, updated everything, pointed it to my python folder) but when I try to build I get about 200 errors that say:
Cannot open program database file: 'd:\program files\freeorion_sdk\freeorion\msvc2008\freeorion\freeorionca\release\vc90.pdb': No such file or directory
or
cannot update program database 'd:\program files\freeorion_sdk\freeorion\msvc2008\freeorion\freeorionca\release\vc90.pdb'
I checked and the file is there.
I searched the forums but couldn't find much regarding problems with that file.

Re: The Help Thread
This isn't a FreeOrion-specific problem. A google search has many references to similar errors. After a quick skim, try exiting visual studio, deleting all the .pdb files in the FreeOrion tree, and restarting visual studio and trying again. A reboot might also help, I gather.Dudely wrote:...when I try to build I get about 200 errors that say:

Of course. I should have thought of those things myself. My bad.Geoff the Medio wrote:This isn't a FreeOrion-specific problem. A google search has many references to similar errors.

Re: The Help Thread
In this thread nearly six years ago, he talks about a library used to check memory in a multi-threaded, c++ environment:
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=387
It's been six years, have you guys been keeping up with tests like these?
I am interested.
Thanks.

Re: The Help Thread
I don't believe anyone uses dmalloc as suggested in that thread. You'd have to get it and validate the tool for yourself anyway, so this doesn't really affect you abilitiy to use it.MCP wrote:It's been six years, have you guys been keeping up with tests like these?
Re: The Help Thread
To check memory leaks is good valgrind. Memory leaks are not only in FreeOrion, but also in libraries which FreeOrion uses and this tool is in common use among C++ developers.MCP wrote:It's been six years, have you guys been keeping up with tests like these?
