v008 is here. Fixes the Persistent Hash bug in v007. Thanks, Dann!

Thanks Jeremy for this update...
Can you post a guide on how to do the compile from the SRC,

Thanks Jemery !!

I just try to compile myself..but i think i need something more then this command line i use:
make profile-build ARCH=x86-64-modern COMP=mingw

Can you tell me what to add please!
Is this the last Stockfish source you have used?!
And is it possible for example to add GTB to a earlier source!!

Kind regards,
Jean-Paul.

The included source reflects the released binaries. In order to build (with the command line you used), you need to build the kyotocabinet, qdbm and egtb libraries first:

pushd kyotocabinet; make clean; make; popd; pushd qdbm; make clean; make; popd; pushd egtb; make clean; make -f makefile.mingw; popd;

And is it possible for example to add GTB to a earlier source!!

It's possible of course, but I'm not going to do it!

Jeremy

Thank you!

But i get this now..when i copy your line in command:

Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]
Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

C:\Users\jpqy>cd Stockfish\src

C:\Users\jpqy\Stockfish\src>pushd kyotocabinet; make clean; make; popd; pushd qd
bm; make clean; make; popd; pushd egtb; make clean; make -f makefile.mingw; popd
;
The system cannot find the path specified.

C:\Users\jpqy\Stockfish\src>

You need to do that from the mingw Bash Shell, not from Cmd.

Hi Jeremy,

I have PM'ed the logs!
Now i tried 3 times..he makes a lot files with your line..but when i want to make at last the compile with the line
i use from Stockfish..it just fails at the end.
So i think i'am amost there!

Maybe you can check what i'am missing right now..

Thanks in advance

JP.

OK, go to the kyotocabinet directory and type "./configure" to generate a new makefile. I guess that my makefile might not be compatible with your system. You may need to do the same with qdbm (maybe not, though). libgtb seems to have built properly.

I had to make some changes to the generated makefile before kyotocabinet would actually build (which is why I included the makefile in the distro), so you might have to experiment a little bit, too.

Jeremy

Thanks for your very fast replying!

I start up Git Bash

i go to the directory kyotocabinet..type: ./configure (enter)

he do checkings..files with Yes & No's ..and last line i get this:

configue: error: pthread.h is requied

Thanks for your help

Alright, a couple of things. First check out the MINGW_COMPILE.txt file in the kyotocabinet directory, where I documented what I had to do in order to get kyotocabinet to build due to a missing regex library. Second, it sounds like your mingw64 might not have a pthreads implementation. I am using the version here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w ... 7-release/
