MS Visual C/C++ with "nmake" is no longer supported. - -I recommend to use the cygwin environment as the development environment -and mingw only as the target (runtime, deployment) environment. -For this, you need to install - - cygwin, - - the mingw runtime package, also from the cygwin site. - -You must not install cygwin programs directly under /usr/local - -because the mingw compiler and linker would pick up the include files -and libraries from there, thus introducing an undesired dependency to -cygwin. You can for example achieve this by using the -configure option --prefix=/usr/local/cygwin each time you build a -program for cygwin. - -Building for mingw is then achieved through the following preparation -and configure commands: - - PATH=/usr/local/mingw/bin:$PATH - export PATH - ./configure --host=i586-pc-mingw32 --prefix=/usr/local/mingw \ - CC="gcc-3 -mno-cygwin" \ - CXX="g++-3 -mno-cygwin" \ - CPPFLAGS="-Wall -I/usr/local/mingw/include" \ - LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/mingw/lib" - -The -mno-cygwin tells the cygwin compiler and linker to build for mingw. -The -I and -L option are so that packages previously built for the -same environment are found. The --host option tells the various -tools that you are building for mingw, not cygwin. - -Dependencies: - -This package depends on GNU libiconv. (See the file DEPENDENCIES.) Before -building this package, you need to build GNU libiconv, in the same development -environment, with the same configure options, and install it ("make install"). |
