Sorry about that, I will recompile with static.

Actually,  I'm having that problem as well - how do you compile embedding the DLLs?

Doesn't work, needs libgcc DLL.

Here is my qt compiled on an i5 under windows 7 with the latest updates from Sunny. As the previous guy who posted a qt said, do your due diligence before using this... encrypt wallet, run thru virus scan, etc.

Is anyone else getting an internal compile error on the new main.cpp?
Did you mean the compiler itself generated an internal error on you?

I remember the days when I used to use Visual Studio.  Wink

I just did a "git pull" to update the code on local repository.

Then it compiled OK.

Did spit out a rather nasty sounding warning to the effect of "you really oughta put a semicolon here". But just a warning, not an error.

I'm currently running it on OS X.

-- edit - replaced "error" where I meant to say "warning"

I am using google..  I live inside of the matrix usually!    although this post is where the majority of the info on this subject is..  

I was trying to ask which of the files those edits need to be made to..    Even if I have to get all troll and turn into a 5yr old for a bit.. I will get my questions answered.. just maybe not publicly in this thread...    I like when people throw gas on my fire's though!    It makes me smile!   Not hard to get most people all butt hurt.. which apparently happened a bit ago.. very amusing.. i respond like a dick style troll and move on!

The amount of entitlement in this thread is too damn high!
Yup. And the bullshit like "I'm sure they banned EC2! Or it wouldn't be 'fair'!".

Why is it that we finally get an updated binary and then we get even more changes immediately after ? Sad
Stop being a nooby noob and learn to compile your software like real men do, instead of blindly accepting binaries from unknown users.

i'm trying to learn.. but have random questions.. and am told i'm entitled because of it..

don't ever shoot me down for trying to learn something.. i'll do bad things to ur mom and her little dog too

We're not shooting you down for trying to learn something. We're shooting you down because you aren't using Google to answer your questions and are therefore wasting our fucking time. You're also acting like a five year old.

Somebody smart just put it very simply. I'm going to leave it at this and chose not not agree or disagree with the quote but be somewhere in between.



"There's nothing to be proud of if you are stealing blocks. Sure love the free market and talk about it all day, but when it comes to committing crypto-suicide, short of a 51% attack, exploiting mining software for individual benefit is just about as effective as it comes."

Thanks SunnyKing. You have made crypto currencies a lot more interesting. Most of these posts are about how to optimise the client but the fundamentals are to do with prime numbers and number theory and hopefully the real benefit of your coin will be more interest in these areas. I like this stuff but I've already learnt more from looking at the ideas behind your currency.
 I am sure that there are real number theory experts that have a lot of expertise in generating and analysing primes who have probably haven't heard of prime coin yet. Instead of doing strange abstract pure mathematics for no reason  Smiley they could now do it to generate a strange virtual currency.

 I think that there will a whole generation of ways of improving and optimising your client and block generation speeds but I think this will be closer to mathematical research than speeding up hashing. One of the things I don't understand is why the verification techniques are not a more optimal method to generate the chains?
 I also am slightly concerned that the integral of the difficulty factor will not change very often and so the difficulty factor will be dependent on the remainder of the Fermat test which is not very well explained and apparently not linear. This might make the difficulty levels a bit wobbly but none of this will necessarily be a major problem.
 I'm looking forward to following the progress of prime coin. Good luck.  Smiley

Why is so much info about PrimeCoin hidden? Can't see network hash, can't see current difficulty...Unless I'm missing something Huh

Is there a way to package Qt and MingGw in the windows binary? I hate to have to install these on every PC...

WAIT!
There just was an update to the repository!
He also did some more updates, like making some mining printf's configurable, it seems.

And if shinkicker's still awake he may provide a compiled windows client :-)

Just about Smiley

When Sunny commits his code to the repo, I will build another (if I am still awake).

Or you could pastebin your file and we could try that? Is this prime or main.cpp?
I'd feel better waiting for his official commit in case he still adopts it in some way (he knows the code better than me) since we have to assume that a larger group of people will download & use it.
But if you're impatient :-) , I outlined it in https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2701731 . It's prime.cpp.

Kind regards

[a rant]

Or maybe you could quit bitching about it? If you're not technically inclined, you can't be on the bleeding edge.
I merely placed him on ignore.

I have no patience for those who feel entitled to the fruits of others' labor.
