compile HBMAME for Linux and macOS

[mame-licious]

Hi

I want to compile HBMAME (command line version) for Linux and macOS and distribute it on a new website i'm making.

However, I don't know if you added windows specific code to the command line version of HBMAME so it won't compile on UNIX?

I've never used anything by Apple, there's no support for them. Also, I've never used Unix/Linux in any of its forms. 100% not interested either.

 

So, can't help you with that, at all.

Hi

My question was not if you are interested (because I do it myself), but if you added windows specific code to HBMAME (command line version) when you forked it from the official MAME repo.

If you didn't do that, it should compile. So my question is just: do you remember adding windows specific code somewhere when making HBMAME (command line version)?

Not that I recall. About 2 years ago someone said they were able to compile it for Linux.

Have you tried?

Yes it works! And for macOS too.

But now i'm not sure if I'll have the "endurance" skills to keep compiling it again and again. I will see what I will do.
