Although the postinstall bit is outdated. All you need to do (and thats what the postinstall script does) is set your PATH correctly:
export PATH=/mingw/bin:$PATH
Assuming this is where your gcc.exe is located (no need for prefixes with native toolchains. If you do not have a native toolchain, find one here). Then you need to configure with the following argument (as described on the wiki):
--host=x86_64-w64-mingw32
If that does not work, that means log4cxx is using a crappy configure script, and you should add
CXX=g++ CC=gcc
to your configure command.

Log4cplus has normal Autoconf/Automake build system that should definitely not be that broken that it would fail like that. It works on various systems, including Linux, AIX, HP-UX, etc.

Thanks a lot chaps; i re-explored the options of changing the path and adding the extra options and i'm so sorry i was an idiot check the == after CC that was the root cause all along. Thanks so much for your time it's really appreciated as without i would still have never spotted that glaring error!

Hi; I'm having a problem with compiling on WIN64 using Mingw. I'm trying to configure with:
./configure --prefix=/mingw/usr CXXFLAGS=-std=gnu++0x CXX=/c/MinGW/bin/x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++.exe CC==/c/MinGW/bin/x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc.exe
And then i get errors like:
configure:3446: checking for C compiler version
configure:3455: =/c/MinGW/bin/x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc.exe --version >&5
./configure: line 3457: =/c/MinGW/bin/x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc.exe: No such file or directory

If i then try to compile that using gcc myself it works a treat.
BTW; i just tried clean install from:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win64/Personal%20Builds/mingw-builds/4.8.2/threads-posix/seh/
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/External%20binary%20packages%20%28Win64%20hosted%29/MSYS%20%2832-bit%29/
And still the same result :( I'm then running on Windows 7x64
Is it something to do with my msys installation? Any help would be much appreciated!
BTW old post on log4cplus forums with recommendation to post here.

This is about log4cplus, not log4cxx. They are actually two different projects.

Ok, misread, apologies to the author. Oh that's you
;-).Thanks a lot chaps; i re-explored the options of changing the path and adding the extra options and i'm so sorry i was an idiot check the == after CC that was the root cause all along. Thanks so much for your time it's really appreciated as without i would still have never spotted that glaring error!
./configure --prefix=/mingw/usr CXXFLAGS=-std=gnu++0x CXX=x86_64-w64-mingw32
-g++.exe CC=x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc.exe --host=x86_64-w64-mingw32
Now working perfectly
