Geany / Bugs / #1001 Compilation error with MinGW

neoxeo - 2013-10-28

I try to compile Geany on Windows 7 with MinGW.
When I compile Geany I have error on Scintilla compilation. I have try to compile
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/scintilla/scintilla336.zip?download : it works fine.

Thank you for your help.

Can you try Geany from git, it also uses scintilla 3.3.6

It might just be that GTK is not defined, which is a weird quirk about ScintillaWidget.h that's burned me on a number of occasions. You could test if that's it by doing make CFLAGS="-DGTK" (or whatever flags like CPPFLAGS or CXXFLAGS or something) when you make it.

Thank you for your reply !

With CFLAGS="-DGTK" and Github version with 3.3.6

Sorry, I'm a newbee with MinGW, I hope that syntax is good.

I don't undestand why Scintilla 3.3.6 without Geany compile fine, and why I have this error when I try to compile Geany. If I have no good GTK define, scintilla 3.3.6 won't compile fine.

Thank you again for your reply and your help.

Lex Trotman - 2013-10-28

I don't know how you compiled scintilla by itself, but are you sure you compiled the GTK version. Scintilla has a windows native version as well, which I would have thought was the default build on Windows. Geany uses the GTK version of scintilla on all platforms since Geany is a GTK application.

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:

neoxeo - 2013-10-28

You are right, Lex. I think I have use windows version (on http://www.scintilla.org/ScintillaDownload.html I have choose Zip file).

I have also download the "tgz format (1200K) commonly used on Linux and compatible operating systems" and try to compile Scintilla in MSYS mode. No problem, the 2 dll was create.

In source code, for zip or tgz (windows or Linux), there is "scintilla\gtk" directory.

Try to compile scite, scite.exe is generated and all is OK.

If I remember correctly, to build the GTK+ platform Scintilla, you need to be inside the "gtk" directory. It won't make any .dlls, it should just dump an .a file into the "bin" directory. But either way, there's a huge difference between building upstream Scintilla and Geany: build systems :)

I know I'm a newbee, thank you to try to help me.

Ok. Go to Scintilla 3.3.6 GTK directory, and run a make => no error and scintilla.a created in bin directory.

Do you think, that is needed to modify Makefile.am and/or makefile.win32 in geany-master\scintilla directory ?

No idea to help me ?

GTK compilation of scintilla is ok, but in Geany always have the same error.

Thank you.

Can you post the whole command that make fails on, which should start 'g++'. Also which makefile are you using?

You could also try to compile with the alternate Waf build system.
To try this you first need to install Python and then in the Geany source directory:

python waf configure
python waf build

And see if it succeeds.

Enrico Tröger - 2013-10-30

I just tried it myself and building with Waf succeeds, at least on my very old, not up2dae Windows XP VM.
And as Scintilla itself builds also, it seems related to the hand-written Makefiles.

Thank you Enrico for your.

I'll test that tomorrow and will give you result...

Always use Make from the root source directory and make sure to do a full "make clean" as the GNU Makefiles don't correctly handle dependencies between files when it fails partway through (in my experience, I never investigated why), so you have to do a clean to get everything rebuilt correctly.

One thing you could try for the GNU make files is to put #error "I should fail" in include/ScintillaWidget.h inside of the #if defined(GTK) guards to see if it results in that error message being printed at compile time. I've seen those errors a number of times and it has always been because of symbols from ScintillaWidget.h were missing (for me because of missing -DGTK but it is defined in your output).

FWIW, I also experienced those same errors using Waf last time I tried, I think something is different for the socket stuff on Win7 than previous version maybe.

Hi Mathew,

I have put #error "I should fail" in include/ScintillaWidget.h inside of the #if defined(GTK) :

__ #ifndef SCINTILLAWIDGET_H __
__ #define SCINTILLAWIDGET_H __

__ #if defined(GTK) __
__ #error "I should fail" __

__ #ifdef __cplusplus __
__ extern "C" { __
__ #endif __

Same error and no error message ""I should fail".

Thanks

i try to build geany with MinGW on Windows 7 64bit tonight, i encounter the same problem, i fix this by moving scintilla makefile from geany/scintilla to geany/scintilla/gtk(BTW this is where the official scintilla put the makefile), and edit the content to meet the path change.

I am not clear if this is a bug of the makefile or MinGW gcc, i'll try to build geany under linux mint with another machine when i get time. Meanwhile someone please temporarily fix this.

@winterland, which "makefile" are you using? There may be confusion between several build systems and/or using wrong letter casing/extensions in filename; the main one is for Automake/Autotools which has name Makefile.am (which generates a Makefile in the build directory), another is makefile.win32 which is some simple GNU Make file that some people use to build Geany on Windows (but not the official releases, those use Waf build system), and finally there's a makefile that upstream Scintilla uses, that is not part of or distributed with Geany that is used to build the upstream Scintilla GTK+ tree.

Which "makefile" do you mean?

Hi, I still have this problem. In previous version I solved entering in the scintilla/gtk
directory and running directly the compiler command after some change in the include path:

g++ -DNDEBUG -Os -Wall -Wno-missing-braces -Wno-char-subscripts -DGTK -DSCI_LEXER -I ../include -I ../src -I ../lexlib -I . -IC:/libs/include/gtk-2.0 -IC:/libs/lib/gtk-2.0/include -IC:/libs/include/atk-1.0 -IC:/libs/include/cairo -IC:/libs/include/gdk-pixbuf-2.0 -IC:/libs/include/pango-1.0 -IC:/libs/include/glib-2.0 -IC:/libs/lib/glib-2.0/include -IC:/libs/include -IC:/libs/include/gettext -mms-bitfields -DG_THREADS_IMPL_NONE -c PlatGTK.cxx

but now make -f makefile.win32 is trying to compile again the PlatGTK.cxx, although the .o was properly created with the above command...

EDIT: I changed the makefile in scintilla:

... SRCOBJS=\ gtk/PlatGTK.o \ gtk/ScintillaGTK.o \ Accessor.o \ CharacterCategory.o \ src/CaseConvert.o \ CaseFolder.o \ CharacterSet.o \ LexerBase.o \ LexerModule.o \ LexerNoExceptions.o \ LexerSimple.o \ PropSetSimple.o \ StyleContext.o \ WordList.o \ src/AutoComplete.o \ src/CallTip.o \ ...

and compiled with the command above all the file in scintilla/src but I have now problem with ld "ld.exe: cannot find -liberty"

EDIT 2: I reinstalled libliberty from the link in
http://www.geany.org/Support/CrossCompile
and now it is ok
