[QUOTE=SELROC;513582]I have attempted to reproduce the segfault without success. I have fixed the Makefile by adding -lstdc++fs , the pull request is waiting.[/QUOTE]

Thanks Valerio, in fact adding -lstdc++fs fixes the segfault problem. Your pull request is merged now.

[QUOTE=preda;513584]Thanks Valerio, in fact adding -lstdc++fs fixes the segfault problem. Your pull request is merged now.[/QUOTE]

One thing I don't understand is that compiling without stdc++fs throws a compile-time error, so I don't know how he got there.

[QUOTE=kriesel;513543]Same method as used for V6.4, produced[/QUOTE]
Ken, I'm looking into these, give me one moment.

That works nicely. The only issue I can see is the new way the version is done means that it's not in the binary so not in any submitted results.

[QUOTE=M344587487;513589]That works nicely. The only issue I can see is the new way the version is done means that it's not in the binary so not in any submitted results.[/QUOTE]

Why do you think the version is not in the binary?

There are two ways to build now, using make with Makefile, or using scons with SConstruct.
Both ways generate during the build a version string that is written to the file version.inc, which is included in the build thus the version is in the binary. The version should be reported in the results as well.

The version string is produced by:
git describe --long
and looks like:
v6.5-1-g168a15c

Where 'v6.5' is a tag in git, '1' is the number of commits after the tag, and '168a15c' is a commit hash.

Also, I'm changing the executable name back to 'gpuowl' from 'openowl', I hope that's not a problem.

[QUOTE=kriesel;513543]Same method as used for V6.4, produced [errors][/QUOTE]
Please try again now.

Note, the build now uses a file version.inc which contains the version between quotes, e.g.:
"v6.5-5-ga574d99-dirty"

This file is normally generated by:
echo "`git describe --long --dirty`" > version.inc

I'm not sure how this works on Windows, but if you get
git describe --long --dirty
to work, just put that string between quotes in version.inc

(you can see this in Makefile)

If you get a binary built, and publish it, please use a proper version with the right git hash (which would allow in the future to track down a result to the exact source code that generated it)

I've never used git; I always download a zipfile. Clumsy perhaps but works and lets me dodge a learning curve for now.
I edit the makefile to add an openowl-win section, as shown, with hardcoded hash, and the necessary -static option. It would be great if you would add the openowl-win section, even if it is still written for using git, as it would mean less makefile editing for me every time. Usually the resulting makefile looks something like the following, and after running the make, I also typically run strip openowl.exe, which then gives an executable ~540k in size from the original ~1.4M, as for v6.4

2019-04-13 08:09:39 Bye[/CODE]If you'll tell me whether the -5 is correct for that hash, I'll alter the makefile & rerun it if needed, and post the executable in a zipfile. I think the right zip contents would now be
gpuowl.exe
makefile (not really necessary, but shows how it was built)
primenet.py
read.md

[QUOTE=preda;513590]Why do you think the version is not in the binary?

There are two ways to build now, using make with Makefile, or using scons with SConstruct.
Both ways generate during the build a version string that is written to the file version.inc, which is included in the build thus the version is in the binary. The version should be reported in the results as well.

The version string is produced by:

v6.5-1-g168a15c

Where 'v6.5' is a tag in git, '1' is the number of commits after the tag, and '168a15c' is a commit hash.

Also, I'm changing the executable name back to 'gpuowl' from 'openowl', I hope that's not a problem.[/QUOTE]
I did a full git clone, tarred it up and transferred to the offline PC. Compiled with make verbatim, nothing shows up in the header when you run gpuowl or in the results.txt JSON data, just version:"". It's not a problem for now as I'm batching it manually, I'll just grep v6.5-1-g168a15c into the results. I'll investigate a bit more later.

It can be as simple as:
[code]git clone https://github.com/preda/gpuowl[/code]You could get adventurous and download and compile in one go:
[code]git clone https://github.com/preda/gpuowl && cd gpuowl && make[/code]There's a bit more to git if you want that's only a search away, but if all you want to do is get the latest version and compile you can avoid the hassle by doing the above in a fresh directory every time. You could be a bit more efficient by only getting the latest commit:
[code]git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/preda/gpuowl && cd gpuowl && make[/code]
