Bug Report

Tony_Johnson · November 8, 2003, 11:06am

I have the latest version of Cygwin, with all packages installed
(downloaded it 11/6/2003), and I have the SDL source snapshot of Sun Sep
21. I ran**
autogen.sh
configure
make

and I got the following error

/libhermes.al/x86_main.lo -luser32 -lgdi32 -lwinmm -L/usr/lib/mingw
-mno-cygw

/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-mingw32/3.3.1/…/…/…/…/i686-pc-mingw32/bin/ld:

This is a common problem on newer distributions of Cygwin that I believe
they(the SDL powers that be are looking into.

It’s a problem with nasm.exe

run “./configure --disable-nasm” for now.

I don’t remember if there was a better way than disabling nasm to
resolve this problem. It might require an older version of nasm.exe.

This is the correct solution for now. Apparently it’s a bug in binutils,
which has been fixed but hasn’t been released yet.

See ya,

yep, I sent a patch about this, some macro were left away.

Simply replace “a+” WIN32_FILE_MODE with “a+b” to compile. or wait for CVS
update, as Sam does it really fast ^^

As iconv is only installed with
CYGWIN, with MinGW this gives
an error.

I built on MinGW last night with no problems. The trick is to run
autogen.sh with cygwin, and then run ./configure and make from the
mingw shell.

How to do this ?!?!?!

How do i run autogen.sh with cygwin and then
run ./configure … with mingw ???

CYGWIN / MinGW is just one part. Okay, i can use
-mno-cygwin to build things using MinGW only.

Ah, I see the problem, I’ll test with cygwin only and make sure the
configure script is passing -mno-cygwin by default.
