Oh this page really needs to be removed, it’s not up to date at all.

You should follow these instructions: https://github.com/openfl/lime#building-from-source

Thank! I’m trying it!

I tried it. Although no errors but I still do not rebuild the lime. I tried to change source C in folder legacy\project\src\ but it does not work at all.

d:\DevTools\HaxeToolkit>haxelib dev lime d:\DevTools\HaxeToolkit\lib\lime\2,0,6\
Development directory set to d:\DevTools\HaxeToolkit\lib\lime\2,0,6

You already have format version 3.1.2 installed
Set format to version 3.1.2 [y/n/a] ? a

The Changing directory: d:\DevTools\HaxeToolkit\lib\lime\2,0,6,67\tools don’t really match with your d:\DevTools\HaxeToolkit\lib\lime\2,0,6, strange.

And since I’m guessing the directory doesn’t exists that could explain why the rebuild stopped early.

Did you clone to the lib\lime\2,0,6 directory? It’s a bit peculiar to clone it there, and could interfere with haxelib.

You could try the command lime rebuild lime windows -Dlegacy, it should skip the tools and could allow the rebuild to happen.

It error again!!!

When cloning Lime with Git did you include the submodules? Curl is a separate repository included as a link and it needs certain flags ( I think the --recursive clone options should do it but not entirely certain) to pull properly. You could try running this:

git submodule update --init --recursive

in the Lime directory.

ibilon · July 8, 2015, 3:07pm

It does.

But since he’s trying to rebuild the legacy ndll it shouldn’t have been an issue, I guess the lime rebuild lime doesn’t take -Dlegacy into account.

Maybe try cloning in a different location than the haxelib directory and retry with that.

long2805l2 · July 8, 2015, 3:22pm

I think it Work!
That’s my wrong. I don’t clone Lime with git. I use svn and it don’t get submodule.

PS: I cannot rebuild src C/C++.

singmajesty · July 8, 2015, 4:15pm

Here’s what I do:

cd /c/Development/Haxe
git clone https://github.com/openfl/lime
cd lime
git submodule init
git submodule update
cd ..
haxelib dev lime lime
git clone https://github.com/openfl/openfl
haxelib dev openfl openfl
haxelib run lime rebuild windows
haxelib run lime rebuild tools
haxelib run lime setup
lime rebuild windows -Dlegacy

You can use --recursive when cloning Lime, but I usually forget

You can shorten haxelib run lime to just lime and skip setup if you already have the lime shortcut

Of course, you need a copy of Visual Studio C++ installed on Windows to build any C++ files. I also have to run these commands from “Git Bash” (after installing https://git-scm.com/download/win)

Does this help?

long2805l2 · July 8, 2015, 4:39pm

Thank all your help!
Tomorrow, I will try it.
Explain a bit, when I rebuild, it really works.
But when I try to create a syntax error in the src of Lime legacy and try rebuild, it still work.
I tried again rebuild with -clean and it is no error message at all.

singmajesty · July 8, 2015, 7:34pm

Make sure that when you make a change to legacy, you rebuild using -Dlegacy, otherwise rebuild compiles Lime 2 only

long2805l2 · July 9, 2015, 10:41am

It Work!!!
Thank again.

Other questions: My game using lime 2.0.6. Is there a way to rebuild again this version?

singmajesty · July 9, 2015, 6:54pm

Just use haxelib dev lime to return to the haxelib version you have set

haxelib dev lime path/to/lime/dev/checkout to go back to a development build
