Cross platform Mega Drive / 32X toolchain and Makefile abuse.
Follow the guide for your OS:
SGDK's bundled toolchain only works on Windows, and Gendev only works on GNU/Linux systems. I have multiple computers all running different operating systems and it was a huge pain to have to keep updating multiple build systems for one game. The goal of this toolchain is to avoid that hassle -- one Makefile in your project that'll build your ROM on any host OS.
In theory you would only have to set GENDEV and MARSDEV to the same place, but every project is different.
There are so many of these and they all have different places you have to go to configure paths. In general the only thing you should NEED to do, is point it to the headers.
- GCC Headers:
$(MARSDEV)/m68k-elf/lib/gcc/m68k-elf/$(GCC_VER)/include - SGDK Headers:
$(MARSDEV)/m68k-elf/include - Newlib Headers:
$(MARSDEV)/m68k-elf/m68k-elf/include
If your IDE lets you configure what the build/run buttons do, just have it run something like this.
- Build:
make MARSDEV=/path/to/mars - Run:
/path/to/an/emulator out.bin
If I could make it shorter I would, but GCC is a very large lad. We just have to deal with it.
The examples directory contains various skeleton/example projects to base others on.
For more information on each read examples/README.md.
Should be as easy as a make for any of them.
