XL Engine source code release!

That exception is the result of using new[] with a funky array size. Unfortunately there is a lot of macro stuff in there which makes debugging harder, but the Open function has several new statements. I would check which of them is used with an weird size (either via debugger or by couting the value).

I think we've made some major progress...

I think we've made some major progress...

Indeed.

I'm unfortunately unable to get this to compile. I installed the libdevil-dev and libdevil1c2 packages into my Ubuntu 16.04 development environment. Is 16.04's version of GCC just not new enough at this point for the current codebase?

EDIT: It would appear so -- If I initialize an ubuntu 18.04 development environment, XLEngine compiles cleanly.

What does it complain with?

We are using plain old C++ at this point, even new and delete... no smart pointers. Nothing special.

stderr stream attached.

what's your gcc version?
That's should be available in C++11, maybe we need to set that in cmake?

Seems it is already using C++11 features as part of the fixing-up process (std::string::back(), std::string::pop_back(), std::stoi()), so just pass -std=c++11 and it should compile. Alternatively those pieces of code could be replaced with older features, but ultimately I think the project is going to be using C++11 anyway.
