Unable to start dosbox 0.74 on hrev1alpha4-44674

[Giova84]

On hrev44563 i was able to run DosBox (if I copy libstdc++.so from Alpha3, because without libstdc++.so from Alpha3, DosBox always exit with an error) Today i have installed hrev1alpha4-44674 but now DosBox exit with an error again, also if i copy the old libstdc++.so from Alpha3.

Output of bt:

Output of bt with libstdc++.so from Alpha3 (with this method i can launch DosBox on hrev44563):

gcc4 versions of haiku are not guaranteed to be binary-compatible with previous versions.

Please try with a freshly rebuilt version of Dosbox.

Hi, i have tried to rebuild dosbox from Haikuporter, but the process ends with an error. How/where can i get a freshly rebuilt of DosBox?

3deyes is the provider of version 0.74 with the launcher. He typically updates software when alpha release, knowing his pattern of releases, I would expect a release sometime after the Alpha4 release. Hard to say when exactly.

[Giova84]

I have successfully compiled the latest version of DOSBox on Haiku Alpha 4 branch: ​http://haikuware.com/directory/view-details/emulators/computer-systems/dosbox-074-svn-updated-for-alpha4
