Re: [Ngspice-devel] tclspice for windows

[Holger V. <hol...@un...>]

Hi all,

I guess that the issue may be solved by modifying /src/makefile.am.

When I configure ngspice without the --with-tcl flag, I get the 
following compilation protocol:

/bin/sh ../../../libtool --tag=CC   --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H 
-I. -I../../..  -I../../../src/include -I../../../src/spicelib/devices   
-O2 -Wall -s -mwindows -MT cktfnode.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/cktfnode.Tpo -c 
-o cktfnode.lo cktfnode.c
libtool: compile:  gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../.. 
-I../../../src/include -I../../../src/spicelib/devices -O2 -Wall -s 
-mwindows -MT cktfnode.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/cktfnode.Tpo -c cktfnode.c  
-DDLL_EXPORT -DPIC -o .libs/cktfnode.o
libtool: compile:  gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../.. 
-I../../../src/include -I../../../src/spicelib/devices -O2 -Wall -s 
-mwindows -MT cktfnode.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/cktfnode.Tpo -c cktfnode.c 
-o cktfnode.o >/dev/null 2>&1
mv -f .deps/cktfnode.Tpo .deps/cktfnode.Plo

These protocol looks similar to the sample protocol from the autobook 
example, which I ran and which creates a dll.

/bin/sh ./libtool --tag=CC   --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I.     
-g -O2 -MT hello.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/hello.Tpo -c -o hello.lo hello.c
libtool: compile:  gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -g -O2 -MT hello.lo -MD -MP 
-MF .deps/hello.Tpo -c hello.c  -DDLL_EXPORT -DPIC -o .libs/hello.o
libtool: compile:  gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -g -O2 -MT hello.lo -MD -MP 
-MF .deps/hello.Tpo -c hello.c -o hello.o >/dev/null 2>&1
mv -f .deps/hello.Tpo .deps/hello.Plo

In /src a ngspice.exe is made with 15k size. When I click on it, ngspice 
pops up???!!! In fact, in /src/.libs I find the full ngspice.exe 
excutable, which runs on itself, but may also be called by src/ngspice.exe.

If I configure with --with-tcl, I get the (excerpt) protocol:

/bin/sh ../../../libtool --tag=CC   --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H 
-I. -I../../..  -I../../../src/include -I../../../src/spicelib/devices 
-I/mingw/include  -O2 -Wall -s -I/mingw/include -mwindows -MT 
cktfnode.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/cktfnode.Tpo -c -o cktfnode.lo cktfnode.c
libtool: compile:  gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../.. 
-I../../../src/include -I../../../src/spicelib/devices -I/mingw/include 
-O2 -Wall -s -I/mingw/include -mwindows -MT cktfnode.lo -MD -MP -MF 
.deps/cktfnode.Tpo -c cktfnode.c -o cktfnode.o
mv -f .deps/cktfnode.Tpo .deps/cktfnode.Plo

The line with compilation using the flags -DDLL_EXPORT -DPIC is missing, 
which may be the error source, resulting in the message reported below.

Regards

Holger
