**Solved** Using the build function on UAE4ARM not working
-
Hi all,
Previously I wanted to improve the Hatari emulator so I would rarely need the keyboard/mouse unless the game itself required it. I did this by downloading the source files then tweaking the C code, build it then install. More details here for those interested: http://www.atari-forum.com/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=29629
On the UAE4ARM emulator I am able to run the sources command (sudo ./retropie_packages.sh uae4arm sources) and downloads as I'd expect but when I try to build (sudo ./retropie_packages.sh uae4arm build) there are a large number of errors. I have even tried this without modifying anything first and seems it is either missing some critical elements or has problem with C++ projects (as Hatari was C).
Anyone got any thoughts on how to do this or why it might not be working?

did you try building it before doing all your c changes? seems like an obvious point of failure :)

@dankcushions I did just download the source and then attempted a build (without any of my changes) and came out with a whole host of error messages. Not sure where the console log is so cannot give a sample. Seems like an element is missing but cannot be sure.

Just worked out what is going on. The messages on build are just warnings not errors. On completion of the build step it creates the uae4arm file in /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/tmp/build/uae4arm. Copy that file (uae4arm)into /opt/retropie/emulators/uae4arm and it works. Have corrected the deadzone issue on analogue sticks! Woohoo!

Someone familiar with this system should take a look at your changes and see if they are worthwhile for retropie as a whole.
