correct setup of a toolchain SOLVED

(1/2) > >>

demone:
I have downloaded mingw-builds (GCC 4.8, sjlj 32 bit for windows). I correctly settedup the toolchain,
however I'm still not able to correctly link libraries (I can build executables, static libraries and dynamic libraries), but it don't link them!

I have the following files in same directory (F:\project\)
libtestdyn.a
libtestdyn.def
libtestlib.a
testdyn.dll
main.cpp.o


but buildling with following command doesn't work:
 i686-w64-mingw32-g++.exe -L"F:\project\"  -o c++11test.exe .\main.cpp.o    -ltestdyn -ltestlib

I missed something particular? :/


This is the error i get:
fatal error: no input files

As far as I know all the required files are in the "F:\project\" directory wich is already passed by -L.
that's really disappointing.

Is the setup correct (so correct c::b usage) or I have to ask somewhere else (in that case.. where?)

Did you use "C:\mingw32" as the toolchain folder (Compiler Installation Directory)?
If not, try doing so.

that folder is correct otherwise I can't build the files. The compiling is working right (and also running executable and the debugger and its breakpoints). It's just the linking that is messed up :/

There is something wrong with your setup. Post the full BuildLog (rebuild).

BTW: running the executable implies that the linkstep was successfull.

Yes I run executables correctly, linking is correct for object files, but for ".a" and "dll" files it fails (I tried both only a static library and only a dynamic library)

C:/Mingw

not
C:/Mingw/bin (i wrote it instead of copy pastin like for the others)

here's the build log:
