Bug ID: 430424
Summary: make install seems broken for mingw on windows
Product: extra-cmake-modules
Version: 5.77.0
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: ecm-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: mark...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Trying to "make install" on windows with MinGW results in:
> Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18363.1256]
> (c) 2019 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
Aka, it does nothing.
Make install executes:
> install: preinstall
> @$(CMAKE_COMMAND) -E cmake_echo_color --switch=$(COLOR) --cyan "Install
> > the project..."
> "C:\Program Files\CMake\bin\cmake.exe" -P cmake_install.cmake
> .PHONY : install
The preinstall executes:
> preinstall: all
> $(MAKE) $(MAKESILENT) -f CMakeFiles\Makefile2 preinstall
> .PHONY : preinstall
For whatever reason, that preinstall isn't working.
If i directly execute:
> "C:\Program Files\CMake\bin\cmake.exe" -P cmake_install.cmake
And thus manually do what make install should do then it works as expected.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a Windows 10 x64 with mingw installed (i had the one that came with Qt:
mingw81_64)
2. Make sure that your environment variables are set correctly (make --version
should show something)
3. Create a "c:\kderoot" folder. Or adjust below accordingly.
4. open a cmd window
5. git clone https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/extra-cmake-modules.git
(somewhere)
6. In your extra-cmake-modules git clone dir type: mkdir build && cd build &&
cmake .. -G "MinGW Makefiles" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=C:\kderoot;
6. make install
OBSERVED RESULT
> Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18363.1256]
> (c) 2019 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
EXPECTED RESULT
List of files that are installed to the set CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 10 x64
Qt Version: 5.15.1 (for mingw)
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
It would be super helpful if https://api.kde.org/ecm/manual/ecm.7.html would
include installation instructions for windows. On linux this is easy, just
install it using your package manager and you're done. Windows is.... much more
primitive. Which is ironic :)
