ogre4j / Discussion / Help: Building Ogre4J 1.7.3 with xbig

I am currently attempting to set up xbig so that I may build the majority of the jni bindings with it for Ogre. Since the xbig project does not have a forum I figured I would ask here. I am almost set up with xbig but I received an error while compiling. If I could get help with this error that would be great. I will provide my finished product to the community once I debug it.

The error I am having is during the ant build of xbig. Here it is:

Thanks.

Execute failed: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "mt.exe"

mt.exe comes with VisualStudio 2005 (and later versions) it is required to embed a XML-Manifest in .dll and .exe files. As you build with MinGW you can ignore that.

c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.2/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lt1

That is a more serious problem. t1 is the dll build through the first test case. For that lib a JNI binding is generated, compiled and tested with jUnit.
It seems that the ant script is not working with MinGW.
These are you options:
- fix the ant script
- use another compiler (like Visual Studio express)
- use another operating system (gcc is supported under Linux and OSX)
