Coin making guides

[immakingacoin]

Sorry I have not gotten through this guide yet, something came up from my job and I am having to type up a bunch of stuff from a meeting we had. I will finish testing this guide tonight and at the latest get all the way through it tomorrow morning. I will go through a few more guides tomorrow also. I am just having to type up like 20 pages from a meeting we had, and it is taking up a lot of my time today.

Ok, I am now taking a Programming class. So I will know a little bit more about coding very soon. If anyone wants to use these guides, or talk about making a coin, send me a message. I am going to create a few more threads in order to promote the creation of new softwares around Cryptocurrency.

Any of these guides from 2017 I am wanting to to fork the latest ltc or dash. Everything appears to be hardcoded or something.

Ok, so finally. I actually made a Coin, now I am making a Wallet. I used Cryptonote.

Can anyone help with the last part.

I did the Build with the "ALL_BUILD" and all that, and I got 3 Files out:

miniupnpc.dll
miniupnpc.exp
miniupnpc.lib

What are these and how do they become a Wallet?


I am trying this guide also too now.

Ok, I figured it out I think.

So here now is what I have, I have CXX in a build folder of the Wallet, Boostrapped, all Libraries, all Paths, I have the PATH set to the Cmake Bin so I can >cmake.exe and I have the Submodule of the Coin in the Wallet src folder and I am getting Qt 5.9 right now

Alright, so on 1 Computer I am using the XMD Coin guide and building the Wallet, and on the other Computer I am using a big mixture of guides and am trying to compile the Wallet, but the Wallet already has a Compiled Coin. And on both, I am getting "Access Denied" and then a popup that says "This app can not run on your PC".

And then when I move the directory to the cmake bin, and do cmake, it just does like a normal command. But when I do it in the Wallet, or in the Coin on the other Computer. It says "This app can not run on your PC".

So I think this means that I need Linux. I already tried signing off and signing back on. And I have all the right libraries, and I already have done a build, I just had it pointed at the Cmake bin folder in the command line, so it made a weird file.

Now I am pointing at the Wallet, which was giving me error messages before, and now I am getting a "This app can't run on your PC" message. So I am pretty sure that it this is it. I probably just need to redo the Wallet part on Ubuntu.

If anyone knows why Windows would say that, let me know. And there is more info in the Bytecoin thread link.

Ok, so I am on the very very last step.

So, Cryptonote had a bug, and it was corrected here
https://github.com/cryptonotefoundation/cryptonote/commit/531dacc47d686c158fad47e9bb72f6802edcce89

But I don't know where to put that line of code. I am trying to figure it out right now but if anyone can figure out where that goes, post it here.

Ok, so there is something about the qt5gui Libraries, I fixed all the other stuff, then moved out of src into the main wallet folder, and now both cmakelists and makefile executions are bringing up qt5gui Library errors. And I found the Libraries it says it can't find, and this was the same exact last problem I had on Windows.

I found this on a Bitcoin thread and put it on Github so it is easier to download. I am about to try this, then go read more about qt5 and qt5gui_dir errors and everything. But once this is done this is it. It's fininsh.

Ok, so, I finished Compiling last night.

The first time, it went to like 50% then some random error. Fixed it. Then it went to 100% and ended right at the executable and said there was no file with the name of my coin. Then I realized that the Symbolic Link I created had an extra folder, because the git had an extra folder. So it was saying "That file doesn't exist".

I figured that out, and now I have the compiler running at 100%, and spitting stuff out.

But the first time, I got 4 things, Connectivity_Tool, Walletd, Minderd and SimpleWallet. They are like desktop icons, and it says they are "executable files" but the computer can't find anything to open then with on linux or windows.

So I tried deleting the build folder and starting fresh, kind of like you do with the Cache. And what came out of that was just 1 single executable that has the name of the coin, and when you click it the splash image comes up, but nothing happens.

So today, I might start from scratch and try to make the coin that way.

Here is my Config.json file, what could possibly being causing this not to let me create a wallet in the final compile? And I have the Daemon running on 2 computers, but I am waiting a few hours just to see if they ever find each other.

Ok, I figured it out I think.

So here now is what I have, I have CXX in a build folder of the Wallet, Boostrapped, all Libraries, all Paths, I have the PATH set to the Cmake Bin so I can >cmake.exe and I have the Submodule of the Coin in the Wallet src folder and I am getting Qt 5.9 right now
