Cannot translate DWM

[ghost]

Hi. I downloaded dwm source code from their git repo, compiled c2v and then ran it. But when I ran it, I got this:

dwm on master via C v12.2.1-gcc
❯ ../c2v/c2v .
C to V translator 0.3.1
"." is a directory, processing all C files in it recursively...

The file ./drw.c could not be parsed as a C source file.

Hi @TenTypekMatus,

please read the Configuration section in the README

[ArtemkaKun]

Let me know if you will have any problems

[ghost]

@ArtenkaKun Ok, I'll do that.

[ArtemkaKun]

Ah ok, excuse me, I understood your issue in a wrong way

[ArtemkaKun]

Can you please add a link to a code you want to translate?

[ghost]

Sure. https://dwm.suckless.org/

It's the most simple WM that exists.

[ArtemkaKun]

Ok, so drw.c imports Xft.h, which imports freetype/config/ftheader.h header file. For some reasons, C2V has problems with it.

Can you try to compile dwm on your PC and make sure it works as intended?

[ghost]

Here it is. (compiled w/ make)

[ArtemkaKun]

Can you try to seak for this ftheader.h file on your computer, and then include it in C2V configuration with -I parameter?

[ghost]

Sure. I had to pass those args manually since c2v didn't detect config.toml, and now it says that I don't have permission to open the file. I tried it with sudo, but now, it gave me this:

dwm on  master [!?] via C v12.2.1-gcc

The file /usr/include/freetype2/ft2build.h could not be parsed as a C source file.

Also, there's the image.

[ArtemkaKun]

Let me try it on my PC, one sec

[ArtemkaKun]

Ok, I can reproduce it. So, it's a bug and it needs to be resolved. Unfortunately, I have no time for C2V right now, maybe you can try to resolve it?

[ghost]

Maybe... ig.

[ArtemkaKun]

I think this issue should stay so we can fix it in the future
