Compiling C::B using Msys2

alle_meije:
For some reason the C::B binaries often crash on my Win7 laptop.
For development on this laptop I use a combination of C::B and Msys2
(https://sourceforge.net/p/msys2/wiki/MSYS2 installation)

I am now trying to compile C::B in the Msys2 envioronment.
The Linux installation instructions (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Installing_Code::Blocks_from_source_on_Linux) seem most suitable for building in Msys2.

Compiling wxwidgets was easy:
1. wget --no-check-certificate https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/archive/master.zip && unzip master.zip && mv wxWidgets-master wxWidgets-dev
2. cd wxWidgets-dev
3. configure --prefix=/mingw64; make; make install ## prefix for the 64bit compiler environment

The wxWidgets tests described on the linux page all work (i.e. return useful info):
$ wx-config --prefix
/mingw64
$ wx-config --libs
-L/mingw64/lib -Wl,--subsystem,windows -mwindows -lwx_mswu_xrc-3.1 -lwx_mswu_html-3.1 -lwx_mswu_qa-3.1 -lwx_mswu_adv-3.1 -lwx_mswu_core-3.1 -lwx_baseu_xml-3.1 -lwx_baseu_net-3.1 -lwx_baseu-3.1
$ which wx-config
/mingw64/bin/wx-config

Then I continue with C::B:
a) svn checkout http://svn.code.sf.net/p/codeblocks/code/trunk codeblocks-dev
b) cd codeblocks-dev/
c) ./bootstrap
d) ./configure --with-wx-config=`which wx-config`; ## no errors/warnings, wxwidgets 3.1 found, advised to issue 'make'
e) make

follows with the output below.

The warnings and errors all seem to relate to DLLexport and DLLimport.
Is this something that should be set explicitly when (in Windows) it's not possible to use C::B to build C::B?

Thanks for the help, really hoping to use C::B also in Msys2 for Windows binaries!

I know you need to build wxWidgets 3.1.x using configure option "--enable-compat28" for Code::Blocks to have a chance of compiling without error.

Ah, I did not know that option, many thanks! re-compiling wxWidgets as we speak.

I don't think build C::B under msys2 can solve your issue. Why not directly build c::b under mingw, and use gdb to debug the crash issue?

That's basically what I'm doing in Msys2:
