Heya Joan & Dave, I’m working my way through the Glazier readme, thanks so much for the copious notes.
I had to change a few things to get ahead (noted below), and now I’m stuck. # Missing PATH I had to add this to PATH to make tool resolution work as described: https://github.com/apache/couchdb-glazier/commit/a9499252ad767579b023c179b5da0cd81f32a91d#diff-b335630551682c19a781afebcf4d07bf978fb1f8ac04c6bf87428ed5106870f5 I hope this works generally and not just for me. So far so good. # git clone otp under cygwin The README says to git clone in PowerShell. This has the effect that line endings are \r\n and that doesn’t agree with the `otp_build` script. Moving the git operations into cygwin fixes this. https://github.com/apache/couchdb-glazier/commit/51e5767bc1cfd3285c57278d5f794a93e5bd0af9#diff-b335630551682c19a781afebcf4d07bf978fb1f8ac04c6bf87428ed5106870f5 # Building Erlang Without any changes, `otp_build autoconf` fails with: ”configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables“ In config.log I find: “LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file ‘MSVCRT.LIB” A half on on StackOverflow tells me I need: export CFLAGS="-link -LIBPATH:/cygdrive/c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Microsoft\ Visual\ Studio/2017/BuildTools/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.16.27023/lib/x64” I got that to build once, but when trying to make it part of the install instructions, I get into trouble with the configure cache, which doesn’t expect CFLAGS and seems to come pre-filled with the OTP sources. I went through a little back and forth trying to fix this, but ended up with \\\\\ escape issues and gave up. Any tips for making this work properly rather than hacking .cache files manually?
