Subject: FW: Can't build Insight with Cygwin
Date: Fri, 23 Dec 2005 16:09:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <000501c607b8$1bddb790$0300a8c0@Albinoni> (raw)

Hi

Thanks, Wilfred! This at least confirms my view that there did not seem to
be any regular way this source could build. If I read it right, Dave Korn
has confirmed that the Win32Dll.c code relies on an idiosyncrasy of an
earlier version of gcc. Wilfred, can you post a patch? I have read Dave
Korn's fix but as I have always studiously avoided assembler I just don't
understand what to do to implement it!
 
BTW: Keith, I have used the latest cygwin download which I think is gcc
3.4... (see Dave Korn's post). I am interested in Insight under Windows
because I have used MSVC in the past (great debugger!) but want to migrate
to gnu for cross-platform reasons. There's a lot of IDEs available for gcc
but debugging support is generally poor. Hence the interest in Insight.
Keith, I guess the cygwin compiler on your Win2K box is an old version...
 
Finally, I tried building with mingw 3.4.4 and the offending section in
tcl/win seems to build OK!! But mingw breaks on the ./bfd sub-directory.
Output below. Any ideas on this one? This looks like something has coughed
in the make file - again, I've studiously avoided using make...
