Hi,
I tried to compile the CVS with the debugger...
calling configure with --enable-debug and everything compiles, dosbox is linked agains debug/libdebug.a - but after calling ./dosbox i see no debugger window?

Workt perfekt under debian at work - but does nothing on my mandrake 9.2 at home

what may be wrong?

the linking against debug/libdebug.a is always done. But in the normal case the lib is empty.

Anyway. Try looking in the configure output.
it should contain

1checking curses.h usability... yes
2checking curses.h presence... yes
3checking for curses.h... yes
4checking for initscr in -lcurses... yes
5checking for initscr in -lpdcurses... no

if there are no's there then dosbox can't find your header files / libaries.

Hi,

Sorry to up an old topic. I am trying to build a DosBox with heavydebug on. Where could I find the libcurses library to compile the DosBox in this mode? I couldn’t find a version the DosBox with heavydebug on.

I am working with MiniGW and MSYS on XP.
