Re: [Mingw-users] Flex together with Mingw32

[Ralf E. <fl...@t-...>]

hey Keith,

seems like this turns to a never ending story. I´ve tried your 
suggestions today. The result is not like expected.

What I did:
1) I first checked the search-path of my i586-mingw32msvc-gcc Compiler. 
In none of the paths there is anywhere the native libfl.a.
2) I´ve created a new dir on: /hd/programming/win32libs/lib  and  
/hd/programming/win32libs/include
3) I´ve copied the libfl.a from the GnuWin32 project to ../lib and the 
FlexLexer.h to ../include
4) then I called my cross-compiler with the following:
"i586-mingw32msvc-gcc -L/hd/programming/win32libs/lib -lfl -o lexan.exe 
lex.yy.c lexantest.c"   in order to tell my cross-compiler where it can 
find the Win32-Lib. The result I get then is almost the same as it was 
before:

/tmp/ccABhXHO.o:lexantest.c:(.text+0x0): multiple definition of `_main'
/hd/programming/win32libs/lib/libfl.a(libmain.o):libmain.c:(.text+0x0): 
first defined here
/tmp/cctdKjz1.o:lex.yy.c:(.text+0x417): undefined reference to `_yywrap'
/tmp/cctdKjz1.o:lex.yy.c:(.text+0xd42): undefined reference to `_yywrap'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Does this make any sense ? Or are there any mistakes I made in realising 
what you and Igor have suggested to me yesterday?

Thank you,

Ralf
