@Levitanus Drag the executable onto the terminal window and hit enter

Greetings,

I would like to confirm that I have successfully built both HISE standalone and VST2 on Debian Stretch 9.8

@Levitanus There is a fix for this. Editing the make file from memory.

Use no-pie as an argument(I think it’s argument) in the command line when compiling. Fingers crossed!

[d.healey]

@danial I use -no-pie as a linker flag in Projucer. Might work as a command line argument too.

Attempting to build master branch.

/hi_scripting/scripting/scripting_audio_processor/ScriptDspModules.h:502:21: error: ‘sqrtf’ is not a member of ‘std’ data[c][i] = std::sqrtf(v);

None standard standard library strikes again.

And then there's this stuff, all related to the new Markdown feature. I have the webbrowser disabled in the JUCE project so that might have something to do with it.

Never mind, I found a PPA that provides a suitable version of libwebkit

@christoph-hart said in Linux build of HISE:

It appears that the Projucer has some flags enabled that require i7 CPUs, which is most likely the cause of the illegal instruction errors.

What did you do to fix this? I'm hitting the same error again with the latest Projucer.

/JUCE/modules/juce_dsp/containers/juce_SIMDRegister.h:85:11: error: invalid use of incomplete type ‘struct juce::dsp::SIMDNativeOps<long long int>’

@d-healey I found the commit for the fix you made previously but it isn't solving the problem this time

[d.healey]

@d-healey Oh it looks like someone called Chrisboy2000 posted a workaround on the JUCE forum - https://forum.juce.com/t/dsp-module-breaks-compilation-on-linux/27346/3 :)

And here is the commit that implemented it. https://github.com/christophhart/HISE/commit/b1a3afff06d3b16f58723d3041449522c8dbb17e

I'll push this on my fork
