Linux build #6
Comments
|
The GUI interface code is Windows-specific currently. I've compiled and used a command line version for batched testing on Ubuntu before. What use case are you hoping for? |

Louie,
My background and interest is in performance optimization (reduced time to
solution). I wanted to run a few different cases under a performance
profiler to see if there is any room for improvement.

I'd welcome help with performance tuning. There is a "Windows GUI (debug)" setting in FBEdit under "Options" --> "Build Options". Select that then use "Make" --> "Build" to create a version with symbols. I've profiled AZdecrypt in VTune before. I'm sure other tools could work as well. You'd probably be better off doing this work on Windows (or a VM) to start so you can see how the build process works. I've run AZdecrypt + build process inside QEMU before. You could also add code to mainloop in AZdecrypt.bas then run a known benchmark from the command line to do more native Ubuntu performance tuning. It's a somewhat big ask but there are branches on 99% of the Windows-only code for the GUI so anyone who knew how to add the corresponding Window-drawing code for Linux could make AZdecrypt run natively in Ubuntu with a bit of work. Would be happy to merge in a change like that in addition to performance tweaks. |

I don't have access to a Windows system. I tried running the fbEdit.exe
under Wine on Linux, but it didn't work. So, if you have a Linux only
recipe, I'd rather stick with that.

Use QEMU. Something like this... |
|
Louie,
Is this what you did on Spartan?

Louie,
I haven't used a Windows machine in about 20 years. I'm not interested in
relearning how to use Windows. If I can't build and run AZDecrypt natively
on Linux, then I'm no longer interested in pursuing this effort.

Does anyone have experience building and running AZDecrypt on Linux (Ubuntu-22.04 in particular)?
