Build CB with MinGW and configure

(1/1)

afb:
Thread about what's missing to get Code::Blocks compiling with MinGW and autoconf, like it should...


--- Code: ---./configure --host=i386-mingw32 --target=mingw32 --enable-contrib
--- End code ---


1.
First problem I ran into was with wxScintilla, and WXDLLIMPEXP_SCI not being set in the Makefile.

--- Code: ---AM_CPPFLAGS = -DSCI_LEXER -DLINK_LEXERS -DWXMAKINGDLL_SCI -DGTK

--- End code ---

Makes you wonder what "GTK" is doing there hard-coded, but that's another story. Left it there for now.

2.
There is a warning for all code compiled, so -fPIC should probably be off.


--- Code: ---warning: -fPIC ignored for target (all code is position independent)
--- End code ---

3.
error: definition of static data member '***::sm_eventTable' of dllimport'd class

The macros from CodeBlocks.cbp are missing:

--- Code: ----DEXPORT_LIB -DEXPORT_EVENTS
--- End code ---

4.
binreloc doesn't compile, since it only compiles on Unix and only works on Linux


--- Code: ---prefix.cpp:222:21: pthread.h: No such file or directory
--- End code ---

FYI:

I am working on a different approach, that of getting wxGTK compiled using minGW/MSys.

That would probably be useful too, I am using that on Mac OS X for testing purposes.
At the moment only X11 works, but the Cocoa port of GTK+ is coming along as well.

stahta01:
Gave up building GTK+ and wxGTK under MSys, now trying to do Code::Blocks under Cygwin wxGTK.
Looks like wxWidgets requires major changes to get wxGTK to compile under MinGW MSys. I think I could get GTK+ to compile under MinGW MSys with about a week worth of work, but it is so much easier to just download the finished binary and development file so gave up on that.

Code::Blocks Patches needed for CygWin wxGTK build. This is not the complete list, still trying to make it. I got a whole bunch of link errors relating to wxScintilla. Going to try an wxWidgets 2.6.3 build next.

The missing WXMAKINGDLL_SCI just like your build.
