In fact I do not understand a shit about it

Re: EXchess v6.01
Well, it was just kind of a private joke. Let's asume linux is harder than other OSs; in this case a simple line from the command line does the job easily.

Re: EXchess v6.01
Hi, long time without enter here
I have installed cygwin on my windows 7, so I compiled with this command under cygwin terminal
g++ -o EXchess.exe src/EXchess.cc -O2
And the compilation was succesfull so, here is the two necesary files, EXchess.exe and cygwin1.dll into a .zip file
http://www.mediafire.com/?ku5nvl8mubrmebp
I have tested the compiled file with Arena 3 and it woks fine

Thanks Tony. Do you know offhand whether or not this compile will also work under Windows XP?tttony wrote:Hi, long time without enter here

Re: EXchess v6.01
Unfortunately, this is what most noobs still think, solely because they've never tried linux. I'm using ubuntu + gnome-shell, and to be honest, it's easier / faster / more reliable than windows... by a long way! and virus / malware free. So it's certainly more appropriate than windows for noobs. the truth is that *change* is what frightens noobs.pocopito wrote:Let's asume linux is harder than other OSs
if you want to compile for windows, the easiest way is to download mingw on your linux machine an type the same command line you did with g++. anyway, that's how i compile my engine DoubleCheck for Win64.

In a certain position JA 32-bit reached depth 13 in 83 secs, kNps was 154.
Your compile reached depth 17 (!) in the same amunt of time and kNps was 836.
JA 64-bit does not run for me at all.
My system: Q6600, Vista 64-bit.
My apologies. JA Exchess compiles are defective. I have removed the links from my page. New Exchess code is not working correctly with Msvc/Intel compilers. I've been so busy with getting Stockfish ready, the Exchess builds were released without proper testing. I will look into the problem.
Jim.

note that anyway in my own tests 2.2 (not considering the problems in sudden death games) is smashing 2.1.1. You would make a courtesy to me if you could tell Marco and the other programmers that the new engine is much stronger than 2.1.1.
Thank you
