#32 Compiling error on Windows 7 64 bits and MinGW

[Anonymous]

Hello. I don't have any problem to use CUnit on Linux but on Windows it's a real challenge... I've installed MinGW correctly, check the PATH environement variable (C:\MinGW\bin;) and I use Windows PowerShell to go to the CUnit directory. I can perform the command sh .\configure and all the step is correctly executed. After that, I try the make command but it fails with the error :

PS C:\Users\cyrill.gremaud\Downloads\CUnit-2.1-2> make

/c/Users/cyrill.gremaud/Downloads/CUnit-2.1-2/"C:/MinGW/msys/1.0/bin/make.exe" all-recursive
/bin/sh: /c/Users/cyrill.gremaud/Downloads/CUnit-2.1-2/C:/MinGW/msys/1.0/bin/make.exe: No such file or directory
make.exe": *** [all] Error 127

I've look into the FAQ, the forum, my best friend Google but I don't find the solution. Thanks for your help.

Have also problems with this. Tried with configure and make as decribed in README:

$ tar xjf CUnit-2.1-3.tar.bz2
$ cd CUnit-2.1-3
$ aclocal
$ autoconf
$ automake --add-missing
$ automake
configure.in:161: required file `./ltmain.sh` not found
CUnit/Sources/Framework/Makefile.am:20: `%`-style pattern [...] nsion
configure.in:211: required file `config.h.in` not found
$ autoheader
$ automake
configure.in:161: required file `./ltmain.sh` not found
CUnit/Sources/Framework/Makefile.am:20: `%`-style pattern [...] nsion
$ ./configure 
[...]
config.status: executing libtool commands
sed: can´t read ./ltmain.sh: No such file or directory
sed: can´t read libtoolT: No such file or directory

Looks like building with configure and make is not supported. Will have to try ftjam.

If anybody has thsi running on mingw, please let me know what's wrong...

Hallo,
got it running this way:

$ tar xjf CUnit-2.1-3.tar.bz2

$ cd CUnit-2.1-3

$ ./bootstrap /usr/local
libtoolize: putting auxiliary files in `.`
[...]
config.status: executing libtool commands

$ make
make  all-recursive
[...]
c:\mingw\include\io.h:301:1: error: unknown type name 'off64_t'
 __CRT_INLINE off64_t lseek64 (int, off64_t, int);
 ^
[...]
c:\mingw\bin\strip.exe: './AutomatedTest.exe': No such file
../../libtool: line 9535: ./AutomatedTest.exe: No such file or directory
[...]

$ make install
Making install in CUnit
[...]

$ ls /usr/local/include/CUnit/
Automated.h  CUError.h  CUnit_intl.h  MyMem.h   TestRun.h
Basic.h      CUnit.h    Console.h     TestDB.h  Util.h

$ ls /usr/local/lib/
libcunit.a  libcunit.la  pkgconfig

Now I can compile exe files with static linked cunit lib. The installation is done in /usr/local wich maps to C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\local on my system. Documentation ist in C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\local\doc\CUnit\index.html

Looks like /usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib are not default search paths for mingw, so add:

CUNIT=/usr/local
... gcc "-I$(CUNIT)/include" ...
... gcc "-L$(CUNIT)/lib" ...

to your makefile.

HTH
Martin
