MilkyTracker v0.90.86 PAX

Beware: this modification is not done properly and might annoy anyone with real programming knowledge

MilkyTracker v0.90.86 fork with necessary modifications for PAX terminals. Includes a crosscompile helper for CMake, includes backported CMake build system files and is heavily hardcoded, please take your time to change paths accordingly.

Uses keypad for controls (currently only X to exit) and touchscreen for UI interaction.

Build info:

  • requires correctly set paths to arm-2012.03 toolchain
  • mkdir build
  • cd build
  • cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../armcross.cmake ..
  • make

and pushing:

  • python3 <prolin-xcb-client/client.py> <tty> push src/tracker/libmilkytracker.so /data/app/MAINAPP/lib/libosal.so
  • python3 <prolin-xcb-client/client.py> <tty> push src/milkyplay/libmilkyplay.so /data/app/MAINAPP/lib/libmilkyplay.so
  • python3 <prolin-xcb-client/client.py> <tty> push src/ppui/libppui.so /data/app/MAINAPP/lib/libppui.so

Notes on building MilkyTracker

If you have obtained the MilkyTracker sources from the version control repository, the autotools generated files (INSTALL, configure, etc) will be missing. To obtain these either generate them using 'autoreconf -i' (requires autoconf/automake to be installed) or obtain them from the release package.

See INSTALL for a more general explanation of how 'configure' works.

The configure scripts try to check for everything needed, and will also auto-detect ALSA and JACK adding support automatically; However, this behaviour can be over-ridden using the following arguments to configure:

--with-alsa | --with-jack Force build to use alsa/jack, build will fail if not found. --without-alsa | --without-jack Disable alsa/jack support.

Note that the configure scripts plus associated Makefiles are designed to build the SDL version of MilkyTracker only. Build files for other targets (OSX, win32, wince) can be found in the 'platforms' directory.

Dependencies

To build MilkyTracker you will need the following development libraries:

ALSA (optional) JACK (optional) SDL libz

Note to package maintainers: MilkyTracker contains an internal copy of libzzip that has been modified for use with MilkyTracker; An externally linked libzzip will not work correctly (ZIP support will be broken).
