[ECOS] Problems building configtool for Cygwin (again)

[ECOS] Problems building configtool for Cygwin (again)

[David Fernandez]

Hi there,

Here it is again the same old problem... Seems that something is not
quite right with the cygwin instructions, the configtool sources, or
just myself...

I've picked the eCoscentric snapshot today (01/05/2008) from the web page.

I've configured wxWindows-2.4.2 with:

$ /cygdrive/c/local/wxWindows-2.4.2/configure --disable-shared
--disable-socket s --disable-protocols --disable-fs_inet
--disable-compat22 --with-libpng --without-libjpeg --without-libtiff
--prefix=/cygdrive/c/local

at /cygdrive/c/local/build/wxWindows/2.4.2, then "make" & "make
install". I had to add the additional switches to avoid some compile
errors building wxWindows itself.

I've configured the eCos host tools with:

$ /cygdrive/c/local/ecos/host/configure --prefix=/cygdrive/c/local

at /cygdrive/c/local/build/ecos/host, then "make" & "make install" them.

When doing:

$ make -f /cygdrive/c/local/ecos/host/tools/configtool/standalone/wxwin/makefile.gnu
install WXDIR=/cygdrive/c/local ECOSSRCDIR=/cygdrive/c/local/ecos/host
IN STALLDIR=/cygdrive/c/local

at /cygdrive/c/local/build/ecos/configtool, I get this:
...
c++ -O2 -c -ITCLDIR_use_system/include -I/cygdrive/c/local/include
-I/cygdrive/c/local/ecos/host/tools/configtool/common/common

What could possibly be wrong this time?

Re: [ECOS] Problems building configtool for Cygwin (again)

[Andy Jackson]

Hello David,

I loose track, but I think the fix to this one is to change the include 
at the top of ecutils.cpp to something like this:

#ifdef __CYGWIN__
#ifdef ORIGINAL_CODE
#include <sys/cygwin.h> /* for cygwin_conv_to_*_path() */
#else
#include <sys/cygwin.h> /* for cygwin_conv_to_*_path() */
#include <sys/param.h> // For MAXPATHLEN
#endif
#endif

Hope that helps,

    Andy

I think this list doesn't want toppost... find my answer at the end

Now I get:

c++ -O2 -c -ITCLDIR_use_system/include -I/cygdrive/c/local/include
-I/cygdrive/c/local/ecos/host/tools/configtool/common/common
-I/cygdrive/c/local/ecos/host/tools/Utils/common
-I/cygdrive/c/local/ecos/host/tools/ecostest/common
-DecUSE_EXPERIMENTAL_CODE=1 `/cygdrive/c/local/bin/wx-config
--cppflags` -D_WIN32 -D__WIN32__ -DSTRICT -D__USE_W32_SOCKETS -o
/cygdrive/c/local/build/ecos/configtool/folderdlg.o
/cygdrive/c/local/ecos/host/tools/configtool/standalone/wxwin/folderdlg.cpp
/cygdrive/c/local/ecos/host/tools/configtool/standalone/wxwin/folderdlg.cpp:
In member function `void
ecFolderDialog::OnInitDialog(wxInitDialogEvent&)':
/cygdrive/c/local/ecos/host/tools/configtool/standalone/wxwin/folderdlg.cpp:106:
 error: 'class wxComboBox' has no member named 'Number'
make: *** [/cygdrive/c/local/build/ecos/configtool/folderdlg.o] Error 1

I thought this thing was stable, specially after what was mentioned in
the ecoscentric page about the cygwin bug fixed... I even was able to
build it some time ago!... I guess either this get broken quite easily
or there is something more fundamental I'm doing wrong.

Re: [ECOS] Problems building configtool for Cygwin (again)

[David Fernandez]

I tried with 2.6, but I got even more worrying things like the last
one I've just shown...

Is ithere any desync among ecoscentric snapshots and the anoncvs? I've
been using ecoscentric snapshots by now, but may be I'll try the cvs
this weekend (can't do at work due to proxy :-( )

Cheers

This is explained by the following post:

  http://www.cygwin.com/ml/newlib/2007/msg01121.html

Cygwin is a moving target. I will fix the resulting configtool build issue.

In my experience, nothing running on top of Cygwin is stable.
IMO, it's a major engineering triumph (or perhaps a minor
miracle) that Cygwin works as well as it does. Expecting
stability for anything complex is probably futile.

That's a property of Windows/Cygwin

Aside from trying to run Unix apps on Windows? ;)

If you want stability, the sure bet is using ecosconfig instead
of configtool and Linux instead of Windows.  Not the answer you
wanted, but...

Hi mate,

What you mentioned makes sense, and either, the code suggested there
or the one suggested by Andy cures the problem.

But then I get this nonexistent members (see bottom of my last
e-mail), and that seems as if either, the wxWidgets version I'm using
is wrong (at least the cygwin port of it). I got many of this last
when I tried to use wxWidgets-2.6 and 2.8, uninstalled, and using 2.4
now, but it still complains of similar things...

Any Idea? Anything you want me to send for diagnosis?

Cheers
