Re: [Mingw-msys] c-parse error, compiling gcc for windows

[Sheryl C. <sh...@pe...>]

I made a change in locale.h that fixed the problem. I changed this line:

_CRTIMP  char* __cdecl setlocale (int, const char*);

to this:

#ifndef HAVE_SETLOCALE
# define setlocale(category, locale) (locale)
#else
_CRTIMP  char* __cdecl setlocale (int, const char*);
#endif

I'm not 100% sure, but I think this fix is correct. Is this a bug I should
report somewhere?

Unfortunately, this wasn't the last compilation error. This time the problem
is a whole bunch of missing header files in the directory
C:\gcc-src\gcc\config\i386. For example, there's no stdio.h, string.h.

Hasn't someone else here compiled gcc 3.3.1 for Windows? I can't be the
first. Wouldn't the errors I'm seeing have come up for anyone else using
msys and mingw, since we all have the same set of source and header files? I
can't get into the archives to search--the site seems to be down at the
moment. I'd think that someone else has already fixed all these problems,
no?

I think I may have found the problem. I saved the messages from the
configure step, and there is this line:

    checking for setlocale... no

The offending line in locale.h is:

    _CRTIMP  char* __cdecl setlocale (int, const char*);

Message says: parse error before "const"

I think setlocale may be causing the error because it's not in the C
library. However I'm not sure how to fix the problem. Still looking...

I'm still trying to build a gcc compiler for Windows using msys and mingw.
This time the build failed when it compiled c-parse.c. I get this error:

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

protypes -Wtraditional -pedantic -Wno-long-long   -DHAVE_CONFIG_H   -DCYGWIN

make[1]: *** [stage1_build] Error 2

Apparently it doesn't like line 87 of locale.h, but I have no idea why. Does
anyone know what's wrong here?

Thanks in advance for the help.
