Can't build Insight with Cygwin

Can't build Insight with Cygwin

[Peter Rockett]

I too cannot build Insight with cygwin although I seem to get a 
different problem from Eigil. Any ideas?

Attached is the last n lines of the bash shell output.

RE: Can't build Insight with Cygwin

[Peter Rockett]

Further to this, I have grepped my way through the source and I cannot see
how the missing symbols:

__except_checkstackspace_handler
__except_makefilechannel_handler
_except_docopyfile_handler
_except_dorenamefile_handler

in ../tcl/win/tclWin32Dll.c could possibly be resolved. Obvious question:
Has anybody ever built this version under Windows prior to release? My guess
is that there is a file missing from the ../tcl/win directory...

Peter

Hmm. I'm afraid I can't say much more than I did to the other poster 
experiencing build problems. I know "It works for me" isn't particularly 
helpful, but I can do little more.

I'm building on Win2k using Cygwin 1.5.16(0.128/4/2) using gcc 3.3.3 
(cygwin special) [aka the setup-supplied compiler].

What are you using?

BTW, I don't know if any one builds insight for cygwin with any 
regularity. I'm a linux user, and I don't often turn on my 500MHz cygwin 
PC. Insight "releases" are tied to GDB releases: insight is 
automatically released when GDB is. I have no say about when an insight 
release is made. I simply make the tarball and play with linux a bit.

  It's a local-only loopback connection.  Many of the windows internal
components are implemented as RPC services (or to be precise, COM objects
accessed by RPC interfaces).  It's nothing to worry about.

You do realize that we're talking about *cygwin* users here right?

BTW, if you send me a list of packages that you needed to install for 
cygwin, I'll add an FAQ question for it.

Off the top my my head, I'm sure the list would include: gettext, 
gettext-devel, flex, and bison (I presume people who want to build 
Insight are savvy enough to have gcc & friends installed).

Anything else?

FWIW (and I don't know if you are doing this), I *never* build in the 
source directory. I always maintain the integrity of the pristine 
source. The FAQ on the website covers this.

Yeah -- insight *is* gdb, and as long as Chris or Corinna or one of the 
other in-the-knows keeps releasing gdb, the gdb package will always 
include insight.

I can only think of one thing off the top of my head: IPC. Is it 
attempting to accept connections on port tcp/9909? If so, it's because 
Insight is opening a server socket which allows multiple insight 
instances to communicate with each other.

You can disable this be unsetting "gdb/ipc/enabled" in 
src/gdb/gdbtk/library/prefs.tcl or in your preference file (~/.gdbtkinit 
or ~/gdbtk.ini).

RE: Can't build Insight with Cygwin

Success!!!!

Not sure what I was doing but I think the files may have been left in some
sort of limbo state by my first attempts at building when I didn't have
bison and flex installed. (Although I thought I had cleaned and periodically
recreated the directory from the .bz2 file... but it's all beginning to blur
now.) Having delved into it, it's obvious now that I needed bison and flex
but it wasn't in the beginning.
Basically, I recreated the insight-6.4 directory and downloaded the cygwin
tools afresh. For cygwin, I opted for the default (base) selection together
with gcc, make, bison, flex, tcl/tk, autoconf and automake as well as any
dependencies the cygwin installer threw up. Then it built first time! Maybe
this list of packages could creep back into the docs as a recommended cygwin
install?

(BTW: Just discovered that Insight 6.3.50 is included prebuilt in the cygwin
stuff under the gdb package as well as in the mingw downloads).

Final point: Why does the Windows firewall chuck-up a message box when I
start Insight? What is Insight trying to do that should concern the
firewall?
Many thanks for all the help, guys!
