makefile for more targets

[smogo]

Hi,

here is a command than i spawn after getting the cvs as 686 is too much for me:

perl -pi -e 's/march=i686/march=\`uname -m\`/' `find . -iname 'makefile*' `

Should work on BSD too.

This might not help much, as every one might have its own recipe, but ...

According to gcc's manpage i686 encompasses everything from pentium pro onwards, so this command would only be relevant if you were running on a non-pro pentium (i586), a 486 (i486), or a 386 (i386).

So, as the OP indicates, this command isn't appropriate for everyone, but is surely appropriate for a few people.

Additionally, this would work fine on BSDs - we aren't so alien as people make us out to be =0

He could be on a sparc, a risc, an alpha, a ppc, just about dozens of other arches than just x86

sorry if i missaid. my EQEmu actually runs on non-pro pentium :(

I thought that because of endian problems eqemu was incompatible with systems that were not intel-endian, such as sparc?

I don't think anyone has every tried. It might work, it might not. I don't think there would me that much endian specific code thats still in use. Might have to change some bitshifts but that should be it. We get nearly everything in network byte order, and net->host it and host-> net everything we send. You could always have an abstraction layer that does the endian swap for just eqemu procs. Again, speculation, never tried it.
