"Tix" failure building Insight-5.0

"Tix" failure building Insight-5.0

[João Cadamuro Junior]

Hi gdb,

I have a problem building Insight-5.0 under cygwin 1.1.2 and I don't
know where to get help: gdb list, insight list or cygwin list. Then,
I'll try here and, if this is the wrong place, please let me know.

First, the Insight-5.0 was configured with the options:
--target=powerpc-eabi --prefix=/tools

My OS is Windows NT Server 4.0 (SP6).

At the time of building gdb.exe, the compiler is unable to find the
funcion Tix_Init. I search for this function and it was found in
"tix4180.dll", built some minutes before "gdb.exe" in the "make"
process. Unfortunately, seems that "libtix4180.a" don't have the correct
information about how to find the funcion Tix_Init in the dll. The
output of the "make" process was:

gcc -g -O2       -Wl,--subsystem,console -o gdb.exe main.o libgdb.a
../sim/ppc/libsim.a ../bfd/libbfd.a ../readline/libreadline.a
../opcodes/libopcodes.a ./../intl/libintl.a ../libiberty/libiberty.a

Someone has an idea about how to solve the problem???

Thanks in advance...

Jonathan Larmour has a workaround for this problem.
Please try his recipe:

I'm not sure why this additional step is necessary, though.  I wonder if
this is somehow due to recent binutils changes that allow linking against
a DLL.

It hasn't happen to me yet.  It maybe something specific to this gdb sources
+ this specific cygwin version.
