[Hamlib-developer] How to build latest sources using Cygwin

From: Bill S. <g4...@cl...> - 2013-07-22 00:42:29

Hi,

I have cloned the latest sources and want to build in Cygwin.

I have the Cygwin mingw32 cross tools installed and expect to:

./configure --prefix=<my-install-dir> --host=i686-pc-mingw32
make
make install

Can someone enlighten me as to how I get to the point  I can run 
configure please.

You should just need to run the autogen.sh script first.  It's been a
couple of months since I tested on Cygwin (native, not using MinGW as I
use it from Linux) but so long as the Autotools are installed (Autoconf,
Automake, and Libtool) of the later versions it should work.

While I did not use MinGW from within Cygwin, I was able to build in
Msys from a daily snapshot tarball.

Ok I got passed the initial problems - was my fault - stupid Windoze 
line endings which I have now banished.

Now I have a problem with the generated config.h

Looks like including both windows.h and ws2tcpip.h is not valid unless

I'm no autotools expert so not sure what to do here, any ideas?

This error is occuring in the libltdl code which is placed in the Hamlib
tree by the autogen.sh bootstrap process.  As this code came from your
Libtool installation, I'm afraid that I'm in the dark as to the reason.

I suspect it is more of a MinGW issue than Autotools.  As there are
intentions to remove the need for libltdl at some point in the future,
this issue may resolve itself at some point.  ;-)

This problem lies purely in the generated config.h, it is just thrown up 
in the libtool stuff because that is the first directory to build.

I have inserted this:

AC_DEFINE([WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN],, [Define to limit the scope of 
<windows.h>.])

into the configure.ac before the ws2tcpip.h header file test and things 
are moving on.

Hi,

the next issue was an error building the tests:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

this is a link ordering issue I have seen before. I had to add 
"LIBS=-lpthread" to the configure invocation to fix this. I'm pretty 
sure that shouldn't be needed.

I now have a complete build and will test later.

Hi Bill,

It is probably worth having a look at MXE : http://mxe.cc/
