[mdb-dev] Hints: how to setup an environment to compile on Windows

[Cristiano S. <sum...@gm...>]

I would like to compile mdbtools on windows like a dll to bind it to PHP as
extension.
I would like try this on a Eclipse IDE using the gnu C compiler ported to
windows ( mingW32 http://www.mingw.org ).
The main reason to me do this is to port a small windows tool to convert MDB
file to DBF Unix on both ways.
That is why I using PHP language since I will have interpreters on both OS.
And on Linux side my option is to use this library.
This is also why I do not want to use windows readers for the access file.

Unfortunely I do not know how to create change configure scripts but If
someone point me the way I can read instructions.
Then try run configure under cygwin command line.
I downloaded the branch 0.6PRE from CVS into a Eclipse Project.
Or I do not know if would be better create an standalone GNUMakefile for
build on windows and just run make command.

I do have executable files (.exe and .dll) of some (not all) mdbtools
utilities.
I tried to compile them with mingW32 and Cygwin, but I failed; luckily I
found them compiled somewhere in the web, if you need I can link or send
them to you.

By the way, do you speak Italian Cristiano?

Hi!

Leonardo, please send me windows ports mdbtools in exe or dll for "just in case".
Thanks, Dmitry

Re: [mdb-dev] Hints: how to setup an environment to compile on Windows

[Cristiano S. <sum...@gm...>]

Just to remember that this build on windows using cygwin requires GPL
license ( compiled against cygwin1.dll ).
If you intend to use it on a commercial software that is not granted by the
cygwin license. Well, that was what I understood from the text.
Now I remembered why was trying to build it on msys inspite of cygwin.

I needed also to install some cygwin packages to get some additional dlls:
pcre, glib, iconv, intl.
But I think if you use the package manager from cygwin it will download all
this dependencies.

[Leonardo F. <leo...@gm...>]

What do you mean with "is not granted"? What kind of problems there could
be?
