Hi,

I'm trying to build apr-util with mingw so that I can attempt to build
log4cxx there.

Attached is the output of ./configure, which fails.

Has anyone built apr-util with mingw? I'm using svn trunk.
So, here is the line that failed to configure it:

./configure --prefix=/home/bobbybrasko/log4cxx/apr-util/src/prefixdir
--with-apr=/home/bobbybrasko/vigilant/apr/apr-1.3.0-cvs/bin/apr-1-config

However, this line allowed the configure to work.

./configure --prefix=/home/bobbybrasko/log4cxx/apr-util/src/prefixdir
--with-apr=/home/bobbybrasko/vigilant/apr/apr-1.3.0-cvs/bin/apr-1-config
--bindir=/home/bobbybrasko/log4cxx/apr-util/src/prefixdir/bin
--libdir=/home/bobbybrasko/log4cxx/apr-util/src/prefixdir/lib

I don't think I should have to specify the bindir and libdir since I specified the --prefix. Is this a bug in the autotools build system?
Here is the output of make. Could someone please explaing the warnings
about static libraries for expat? Is there a work around?

I think you need to use jlibtool. I never got it working on mingw, without passing --enable-experimental-libtool to ./configure.

OK, what does this option do? A quick look at the libtool and autoconf
manuals have no info on it. Do you know where I can find documentation
on this option?

It uses jlibtool, Justin's replacement for libtool.

The source code for it is here:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/apr/apr/trunk/build/jlibtool.c

Its faster, and doesn't suck :)
