Why don't you show us the errors you get? Maybe someone
has an idea from seeing the error message.

Re: Building GDB with MinGW (3)

> real problem. (READLINE)

As far as I can remember, GDB has not been ported to MingW. And indeed,
porting readline is one of the problems to solve for that port. There is
a group that has posted patches that allow you to build GDB on MingW,
they have a web site. I don't know the URL but google should help you
find it. Last I heard, they had ported GDB 5.3, but maybe they have
patches for a more recent release now.

Actually, it has.   See <http://www.mingw.org/download.shtml>.   One of 
the tarballs for the most recent snapshot version includes the patch 
against the mainline.  It's from around May, so I suspect the patch will 
require some massaging if you want it to work against current CVS.  The 
best thing about the port is that, unlike the cygwin port, hitting ^c to 
stop the inferior seems to actually work most of the time (assuming you 
run the gdb in a cmd window and not a cygwin window).  This is because 
it relies on windows native events rather than cygwin signals.

Who are you apologizing to?  If you had problems sending no one would have

Maybe at some point someone will actually do it right and try to submit
patches to gdb.

CTRL-C works fine on cygwin.  I use it all of the time.

In fact, CTRL-C does not rely on cygwin signals.  gdb doesn't know about
cygwin signals from the inferior process.  I haven't looked at what
mingw does but it is likely to be the same code.

Chet Ramey, project manager of READLINE will try to 
port it to MinGW. So one of the problems will be
solved.

On the up side, the author says in his patch, "These changes have yet to 
be submitted for review."  This would seem to imply that he intends for 
them to land back in the mainline in the future.

You're right on all counts; sorry for the misinformation.  I looked into 
this once many moons ago, and completely misremembered the details.

Building GDB with MinGW

[Cavit Cahit VURAL]

Hi, 

Still, trying to compile gdb 6.2.1 on MinGW.
I compiled readline at last, no problem with readline.

But when configuring gdb to compile , got an error as 
//
configure: error: *** Gdb does not support native
target i686-pc-mingw32
//

Now what's wrong. What to do ?

You need to find a Windows port of readline (I think there is one on
gnuwin32.sourceforge.net) and apply its patches to the readline
sources that come with the GDB distribution.

Yes there is. One time i did that, but for every
version of gdb to do that is not a good way. And you
cannot be sure, the patch will work or not.

A better way , readline may be changed to be able to
compile without any patch.
