The Windows cmd shell has a command line length limitation that I get around by using MingW from a Cygwin bash shell. Compiling from a bash shell under MSYS might work too I don't really know as I haven't used it Note when using bash under Cygwin you need to substitute the Cygwin 'make' for the MingW 'make' and you will need to configure using the appropriate --prefix argument for your system Perhaps the easiest way around this is to use the standard way of overcoming the Windows command line length limitation by redirecting the link command line to a file and then massaging that so as to have the final linking arguments to gcc be read from that file I believe that this could be done using the --dry-run flag for make but I have nevered tried this as I use a Cygwin shell as outlined above HTH Norman _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
