Title: Compile CodeBlocks by Cygwin
Post by: PetrPetrov on November 05, 2013, 06:34:00 pm
I want to build CB in Cygwin environment.

In particular I use latest x86_64 Cygwin.
I installed gcc, g++, make in Cygwin.
Also I installed x11 libraries and installed local X11 server on my Windows host.
So, many GUI X11 programs work fine in my Cygwin environment (like git gui, gitk, text editors etc.)

I want to run in the same manner CB.
First, CB requires wxWidgets.
Cygwin does not have wxWidgets from the box.
I downloaded the latest 2.8.12 version of wxWidgets sources and build it:
./configure --build=x86_64-pc-cygwin --without-msw --without-gtk --with-x11

which means that I want to build wxWidgets by using X11 libraries (instead of MSW by default).
Then I type, "make", "make install".
Here was a small compilation error, I fixed it, and wxWidgets libraries were installed successfully into my Cygwin env.

Second step is to build CB.
I downloaded "codeblocks-12.11release8629" sources.
./configure steps passed fine.

Then I type "make" and give the following error  (not just immediately after start, error becomes after some long time of compilation):

./configure --build=x86_64-pc-cygwin --without-msw --without-gtk --with-x11
C::B requires wxGTK and it cannot work with wxX11, sorry.
Also I'm sure you're the first trying to build C::B inside cygwin and also I'm not sure why you want to inflict this pain to yourself:)

Thank you for answer.

I will try to build wxWidgets version which is based on GTK library.

Title: Re: Compile CodeBlocks by Cygwin
Post by: PetrPetrov on November 05, 2013, 08:16:59 pm
Now I have build wxWidgets-2.8.12 by using GTK+ 2.0 library.

Note that I used "all port" source package for wxWidgets (http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wxwindows/wxWidgets-2.8.12.tar.gz), wxGTK only had configuration/compilation problem.

I used
./configure --build=x86_64-pc-cygwin --with-gtk --without-msw --without-x11

line to configure wxWdigets.
After this, wxWidgets was build fine and installed successfully.
Note I was need to install additionally 'pkg-config' package for Cygwin, otherwise wxWidget configuration script did not find installed GTK 2.0 development libraries into my Cygwin.

However, I have the same error during compilation of C::B
src/wxscintilla.cpp:169:17: error: definition of static data member 'wxScintilla::ms_classInfo' of dllimport'd class
 IMPLEMENT_CLASS(wxScintilla, wxControl)
src/wxscintilla.cpp:170:25: error: definition of static data member 'wxScintillaEvent::ms_classInfo' of dllimport'd class
 IMPLEMENT_DYNAMIC_CLASS(wxScintillaEvent, wxCommandEvent)


Title: Re: Compile CodeBlocks by Cygwin
Post by: PetrPetrov on November 05, 2013, 08:31:58 pm
It seems that class that causes problem is wxScintilla.
This class defines some custom wxWidget control which is used insude C::B.

Source file of this class is here:
C:\cygwin64\usr\src\codeblocks-12.11release8629\src\sdk\wxscintilla\src\wxscintilla.cpp
and header file is here:
C:\cygwin64\usr\src\codeblocks-12.11release8629\src\sdk\wxscintilla\include\wx\wxscintilla.h

Code into header file:
class WXDLLIMPEXP_SCI wxScintilla : public wxControl {
public:
..... methods

It seems that wxScintilla or its parent class should define sm_eventTable member and some other members.
Also I see that problem is related to dllimport's class. I guess that wxControl is dll-imported class (this is because it is located into another library - wxWidget).
As workaround I can try to build wxWidget as a static library.

But I guess that problem is in WXMAKINGDLL_SCI macro.

wxscintilla.cpp is being compiled with -DWXUSINGDLL symbol which means to use wxWidget library as a shared library.
Also I see (in begin of wxscintilla.h):
#ifdef WXMAKINGDLL_SCI
    #define WXDLLIMPEXP_SCI WXEXPORT
#elif defined(WXUSINGDLL_SCI) || defined(WXUSINGDLL)
    #define WXDLLIMPEXP_SCI WXIMPORT
#else // not making nor using DLL
    #define WXDLLIMPEXP_SCI
#endif
And in such a case I think that  #define WXDLLIMPEXP_SCI WXIMPORT will be used!

wxscintilla class is part of C::B, not it is not part of wxWidget library, I think.
So, it uses wrong WXDLLIMPEXP_SCI macro.

It seems that C::B tries to use GetToolTip() method which is absent. Missing included header file? Any ideas?
Title: Re: Compile CodeBlocks by Cygwin
Post by: Jenna on November 05, 2013, 09:02:12 pm
The wx/tooltip.h header is included at the top of the cbauibook.cpp file.

It's most likely a wxWidgets configuration problem.

Configuring and compiling wxWidgets in a way you get all defines correctly is surely a hard way. And without good knowledge of wxWidgets (and surely C::B) it will be really hard and I doubt there will be much help from the community.
Not because nobody wants to help, but because nobody ever did it.

And I personally see no reason not to use a standard windows build.

stahta01: Why? What is the benefit of running a cygwin version of C::B?

When I was doing a lot of CB Patches; I thought building CB under CygWin would mostly test the Linux CB Build stuff.

I was also thinking of making a CB version to do better debugging of programs under CygWin;
that is the only reason I can think of to run a CygWin built CB.

It seems that wxWidgets library was configured incorrectly.
I.e. It is required that wxWidgets should be compiled with --enable-tooltips flag.
However, if I set --enable-tooltips option for ./configure script then setup.h will anyway #define wxUSE_TOOLTIPS 0 ,
i.e. something goes wrong.
I manually edited this file after configuration step to enable wxUSE_TOOLTIPS to 1:
C:\cygwin64\usr\src\wxWidgets-2.8.12\lib\wx\include\gtk2univ-ansi-release-static-2.8\wx\setup.h

Also I used static configuration to avoid problem with wxScintilla class.
My full configuration line is:
./configure --build=x86_64-pc-cygwin --without-msw --without-x11 --with-gtk --enable-tooltips --enable-monolithic --enable-dnd --disable-shared --enable-universal

gtk2univ-ansi-release-static-2.8

I would NOT use Universal.
I might try Unicode instead of ANSI; but, you are likely right in trying ANSI because the last time I tried CygWin did NOT support Unicode.
I would NOT use static because I think CB requires wxWidgets be in a DLL.

As far as I know C::B requires unicode builds or at least no one has bothered to fix any ansi-related issues.

Post by: PetrPetrov on November 06, 2013, 12:06:16 am
Thank you for warning.

I am currently trying:
wxWidgets:
./configure --build=x86_64-pc-cygwin --without-msw  --with-gtk --enable-tooltips --enable-monolithic --enable-dnd --enable-shared --disable-universal

C::B:
./configure --build=x86_64-pc-cygwin

However, my wxWidgets static configuration did not have problem with wxscintilla class (from the box).

However, my wxWidgets static configuration did not have problem with wxscintilla class (from the box).

FYI: CB uses a plugin system; this means the plugin must be in DLL in the current design.
For a DLL to use wxWidgets requires wxWidgets be in a DLL, I am not sure this is a Compiler or WxWidgets caused constrain.

So, if you wish to use CB Plugins; do a shared build.

I have build successfully C::B under Cygwin!

Also I have just run it from Cygwin + Xming server on Windows!

 ;D

Please post the configure options used for wxWidgets and Code::Blocks.

Great work! Hopefully you can add a wiki page about how to build it in Wiki (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/)

You need to run C::B's configure script with --with-contrib-plugins=[the,plugins,you,want or all], see the --help parameter

My steps to compile wxWidgets:
./configure --build=x86_64-pc-cygwin --without-msw --with-gtk --disable-universal --enable-tooltips --enable-dnd

--disable-universal is important key, it allows to enable tool tips by using --enable-tooltips
(if you will just specify --enable-tooltips then this option will be disabled, such as default configuration is --enable-universal)

--enable-dnd is also required I guess.

In fact here is no matter static\shared or monolithic\non-monolithic configuration.

Also I fixed small compilation error in /usr/src/wxWidgets-2.8.12/include/wx/string.h  line 822:
    /*wxChar& operator[](int n)
      { return wxStringBase::at(n); }*/

I have just commented-out these two strings.

Then make, make install.

My steps to compile C::B:
./configure --build=x86_64-pc-cygwin --enable-shared

Before typing 'make' in console please look at the following file /usr/src/codeblocks-12.11release8629/src/sdk/wxscintilla/include/wx/wxscintilla.h  line 37-43.
Please comment this block:
/*#ifdef WXMAKINGDLL_SCI
    #define WXDLLIMPEXP_SCI WXEXPORT
#elif defined(WXUSINGDLL_SCI) || defined(WXUSINGDLL)
    #define WXDLLIMPEXP_SCI WXIMPORT
#else // not making nor using DLL
    #define WXDLLIMPEXP_SCI
#endif*/

and add the following line a little:
#define WSDLLIMPEXP_SCI

then use Replace command (Ctrl+H) to replaces all entries of WXDLLIMPEXP_SCI word by WSDLLIMPEXP_SCI world for only this file (/usr/src/codeblocks-12.11release8629/src/sdk/wxscintilla/include/wx/wxscintilla.h)!

Now you can type 'make' in console.

However, a few compilation errors will occur.
1.
/usr/src/codeblocks-12.11release8629/src/sdk/macrosmanager.cpp   lines 89-105:

my modifications are:
//#ifndef __WXMAC__
//                                wxRE_ADVANCED);
//#else

                                wxRE_EXTENDED);
//#endif

/usr/src/codeblocks-12.11release8629/src/plugins/debuggergdb/gdb_commands.h lines 204-223:

                       wxRE_EXTENDED);

and also line 642 in this file:         
   m_regExp(wxT("^Catchpoint[ \\t]([0-9]+)[ \\t]\\(") + type + wxT("\\)$"), wxRE_EXTENDED/*wxRE_ADVANCED*/)

3.
/usr/src/codeblocks-12.11release8629/src/plugins/debuggergdb/parsewatchvalue.cpp lines 67-71:
//#ifndef __WXMAC__
//                           wxRE_ADVANCED);
//#else
                           wxRE_EXTENDED);
//#endif

and last compilation error:
/usr/src/codeblocks-12.11release8629/src/plugins/xpmanifest/windowsxplooknfeel.h  line 11-13:

#ifndef __WXMSW__
    #error This plugin is for use under Win32 only!
#endif

So, this plugin should be not compiled under GTK\Linux.

Just disable xpmanifest plugin compilation from generated Makefile:
/usr/src/codeblocks-12.11release8629/src/plugins/Makefile

strings like this:

MAYBE_ABBREVIATIONS = abbreviations
#MAYBE_MANIFEST = xpmanifest
SUBDIRS = $(MAYBE_ASTYLE) \
      $(MAYBE_AUTOSAVE) \
      $(MAYBE_CLASSWIZARD) \
      $(MAYBE_CODECOMPLETION) \
      $(MAYBE_COMPILER) \
      $(MAYBE_DEBUGGER) \
      $(MAYBE_MIMEHANDLER) \
      $(MAYBE_SCRIPTEDWIZARD) \
      $(MAYBE_PROJECTSIMPORTER) \
      $(MAYBE_OPENFILESLIST) \
      $(MAYBE_TODO) \
      $(MAYBE_ABBREVIATIONS) \
      #$(MAYBE_MANIFEST) \
      contrib

then compilation goes fine......
You can 'make install' after conpilation and run C::B under Cygwin + remote X11 display, such as
export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0
(you should have local X11 server installed and running on Windows host, such as Xming - http://www.straightrunning.com/XmingNotes/)

however, I see problem: all plugins (I mean only standard plugins for C::B) are being built to static library configuration.
But we need to have them in shared library configuration. So, 0 plugins are loaded.
However, I specified --enable-shared during C::B configuration.

Could anyone help, or make an idea?

Found some of my old Cygwin Patches.
Not likely safe to apply to CB SVN; but, they might help someone build CB.

Edit: Removed patch I decided the patch would just make more work; will post my progress and commands used, later.

Edit: Step that checks for gtk version 2 installed, Correctly.

pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-2.0

Mine was NOT installed right; (I had prior non CygWin GTK installed)
I had to delete the Windows System Variables GTK_BASEPATH and PKG_CONFIG_PATH to get the Cygwin GTK to be seen.
(I also had to install CygWin pkg-config; it was using the one Installed by the old GTK Package, above.)

I am trying this Configure Command for wxWidgets (wxGTK) (I am using wx 2.8 SVN Branch)
Code
../configure --enable-unicode --with-libjpeg=builtin --with-regex=builtin --without-msw --with-gtk --prefix=/opt/wx/2.8 --enable-monolithic  --disable-universal --without-gtkprint --without-gnomeprint --enable-tooltips --enable-dnd --enable-shared

These options --without-gtkprint --without-gnomeprint helped build in the past using wxWidgets SVN trunk (2.9) .

I am nearly certain "--enable-shared" is required for a wxWidgets able to be used by Code::Blocks.
I decided to try "--enable-unicode" this option because this will reduce the patches needed by Code::Blocks it has about 3 places ANSI code needs fixed the last time I did an ANSI build (about 1 year ago.)
I used "--with-libjpeg=builtin" because two years ago; the version of libjpeg in CygWin caused issues.
I used "--with-regex=builtin" because the other poster in this thread commented out code that using this option might NOT need done.

I got the below displayed before I did make; it is still running make.
Code
Configured wxWidgets 2.8.12 for `i686-pc-cygwin'

  Should wxWidgets be compiled in debug mode?             no
  Should wxWidgets be linked as a shared library?         yes
  Should wxWidgets be compiled in Unicode mode?           yes
  What level of wxWidgets compatibility should be enabled?
                                       wxWidgets 2.4      no
                                       wxWidgets 2.6      yes
  Which libraries should wxWidgets use?
                                       jpeg               builtin
                                       png                sys

                                       libmspack          no
                                       sdl                no

I set CXXFLAGS="-Wno-attributes" before running make to reduce the warnings in hope it speeds up the build. Edit: It made no difference in building. Will try next time setting it before the configure command.

wxWidgets is still building.

The command I plan to try on Code::Blocks boot/configure
Code
./bootstrap
export CXXFLAGS="-DWXMAKINGDLL_SCI -Wno-attributes"
 ./configure

I am worrying that problem in my Cygwin system.
It seems that libtool utility always create static libraries.

I have created small test project:
1. Wrote small a.cpp file the following content:
Code
__attribute__ ((dllexport)) int fn(int a)
{
  return a + 19;
}

and compile it by libtool (just wrapper for gcc)
Code
libtool --mode=compile gcc -shared -c a.cpp

now I am trying to get libtest.dll or libtest.la
Code
$ libtool --mode=link gcc -shared -g -O -o libtest.la a.lo
libtool: link: rm -fr .libs/libtest.a .libs/libtest.la .libs/libtest.lai
libtool: link: ar cru .libs/libtest.a .libs/a.o
libtool: link: ranlib .libs/libtest.a
libtool: link: ( cd ".libs" && rm -f "libtest.la" && ln -s "../libtest.la" "libtest.la" )

I have specified -shared option.
What I am doing wrong?
Title: Re: Compile CodeBlocks by Cygwin
Post by: oBFusCATed on November 07, 2013, 06:49:03 pm
Hm, then do you have wx.m4 file or something like this where AM_PATH_WXCONFIG or AM_OPTIONS_WXCONFIG are defined?
Title: Re: Compile CodeBlocks by Cygwin
Post by: PetrPetrov on November 07, 2013, 06:52:35 pm
Thank you very much!

Now I manually copied wxwin.m4 into local codeblocks source folder, and added
Code
m4_include(wxwin.m4)
at begin of configure.in...

However, it does not matter... libcompiler.a is still created...
I think that libcompiler.dll should be created to allow codeblocks.exe to load this plugin and able to create new projects....
Please see my post above about libtool problem.

Unfortunately, Code::Blocks does not work properly, I can create new 'Console' project in C++.
But gcc compiler is not invocaled from Code::Blocks.

Any ideas?

P.S.: I have specified paths for compiler toolchain, gcc.exe, g++.exe etc.

Because, I have no idea which is more likely to work.

Sorry for the long delay.

As I can remember I specified Linux path (like /bin/gcc.exe or like /usr/bin/gcc.exe, /usr/bin/g++.exe etc).
I'll have a chance to compile it again in near future, maybe Cygwin was improved as well as C::B.
