[Solved] Trouble compiling Audacity from SVN with ASIO

[J,R,D, Ltd]

Gosh this took a long time to compile, I guess it would have been faster if I wasn't using the computer for anything else.

Here are the Build and Debug logs.

It looks like it worked!!

I feel that we have both put a lot of hard work into this and I want to thank you for sticking with the project! Doesn't it feel really nice to succeed in the face of lots of difficulty--well done!

Now, if you would not mind, as the original poster you may edit the title of this post; I think it would be nice if you were to include ASIO somehow in the title and also note that it is "solved" maybe something vaguely like:
[both solved] Having a lot of trouble compiling Audacity from SVN & getting ASIO to compile in

That way others who stumble on the thread via search will not only know we dealt with two problems but that you eventually solved them both.

Congratulations on your success J,R,D.

You're right, and your welcome. I couldn't have done it without your help, thanks. I love the feeling of accomplishing things, especially difficult things like this.

Yes that is a good idea, hopefully it will help someone else out as well.

Now, What files would I need to transfer to my recording PC should I choose to use Audacity with ASIO support? I don't have to build Audacity on the PC I want to use it on right?

Thanks Steve!

I think it is appropriately titled, except maybe (solved) should be in brackets at the front of the title unless that goes against forum naming conventions.

No thanks needed--you cannot imagine the tremendous amount of help I have gotten from others on this forum!

What files go where depends on your OS; as I am only familiar with Windows I cannot address the question on Mac & Linux. In general, what I would suggest as the safest would be to install the most current version of Audacity via the Audacity installer:
http://audacityteam.org/download/beta_windows
about 14 lines down the page:
Recommended Download
Windows 2000/XP/Vista (and provisional support for Windows 7):
http://audacity.googlecode.com/files/au ... 1.3.12.exe
(.exe file, 11.3 MB) - The latest version of the free Audacity audio editor, including help files.

Install this on your new computer; then from your old computer (i.e. the ASIO build) just find and copy over the Unicode Release executable (you may have to build it if you have been build Unicode Debug configuration). It will be in the winUnicode Release folder of the Audacity project folder (D:audioAudacitySVNwinUnicode Release on my system); it is called audacity.exe (you may have to turn on the display of "dot extensions").

Copy over the ASIO installer (not the installation folder) from the old computer to the new and install ASIO on the new (you might also want/need to do the same with ASIO4All). Have a go at it!

If you are wanting to run a stripped down (no local Help, no language localization, few if any effects etc.) install of Audacity on the new computer that is another question!

That worked!

I installed the latest version of Audacity, then installed ASIO4ALL. I did not install ASIO on this pc.
