Re: Building stdcxx-4.2.1 Using MinGW+MSYS On Windows XP (SP2)
Hi Martin, Thanks for your post. I'll keep your Jira tip in mind, for the future. * * * * * * I'm no longer working with stdcxx-4.2.1. Farid has notified me that stdcxx-4.2.2 is ported to MinGW, and he has provided a patch to apply the MinGW updates to stdcxx-4.2.2. The work I did on building stdcxx-4.2.1 using MinGW+MSYS wasn't wasted however, because one of the fixes I discovered (to GNUmakefile), is needed for using MinGW+MSYS to build stdcxx-4.2.2. Please see http://www.nabble.com/forum/ViewPost.jtp?post=20712556&framed=y for the results of my first build of stdcxx-4.2.2 using MinGW+MSYS.

RE: Building stdcxx-4.2.2 Using MinGW+MSYS On Windows XP (SP2)
Hi Farid, I got stdcxx-4.2.2 from svn and applied the mingw.patch you provided. I assume that you are building stdcxx-4.2.2 using Cygwin, and targeting MinGW. My objective is to build stdcxx-4.2.2 using MinGW. I don't use Cygwin and I don't plan to use it. There were two fixes I had to make, to get the build of the patched stdcxx-4.2.2 to run: Fix #1 -- /stdcxx-4.2.2/CNUmakefile: On lines 583, 591 and 592 of /stdcxx-4.2.2/GNUmakefile: ln -sf $(TOPDIR)/GNUmakefile $(buildpath)/GNUmakefile; \ ** ln -sf $(ETCDIR)/GNUmakefile.cfg $(buildpath)/include/GNUmakefile; \ ln -sf $(ETCDIR)/GNUmakefile.lib $(LIBDIR)/GNUmakefile; \ ln -sf $(ETCDIR)/GNUmakefile.rwt $(buildpath)/rwtest/GNUmakefile; \ ln -sf $(ETCDIR)/GNUmakefile.exm $(EXMDIR)/GNUmakefile; \ ln -sf $(ETCDIR)/GNUmakefile.tst $(TSTDIR)/GNUmakefile; \ ln -sf $(ETCDIR)/GNUmakefile.ph $(PHTSTDIR)/GNUmakefile; \ ln -sf $(ETCDIR)/GNUmakefile.bin $(BINDIR)/GNUmakefile; \ ln -sf $(ETCDIR)/makefile.common $(buildpath)/makefile.common; \ ** ln -sf $(ETCDIR)/makefile.rules $(buildpath)/makefile.rules; \ ** ln -sf $(ETCDIR)/configure.sh$(buildpath)/include/configure; \ ln -sf $(BINDIR)/exec$(buildpath)/run; \ ln -sf $(BINDIR)/exec$(BINDIR)/run; \ ln -sf $(ETCDIR)/run_locale_utils.sh $(BINDIR)/run_utils; \ ln -sf $(BINDIR)/exec$(TSTDIR)/run; \ ln -sf $(BINDIR)/exec$(PHTSTDIR)/run; \ ln -sf $(BINDIR)/exec$(EXMDIR)/run On the three lines marked ** above, I added an explicit file name after the $(buildpath) because the MinGW command, was REPLACING the /stdcxx-4.2.1/build/ directory name, with a link (named /stdcxx-4.2.1/build) to the file, instead of creating a link to the file (with the name of the file), IN the /stdcxx-4.2.1/build/ directory. Fix #2 -- Your /stdcxx-4.2.2/build file: I renamed the /stdcxx-4.2.2/build file that came with the svn download, to /stdcxx-4.2.1/build_faridz, because the presence of the build FILE was preventing the GNUmakefile from creating the /stdcxx-4.2.2/build/ DIRECTORY. * * * * * * The build go a LOT further with the patched stdcxx-4.2.2 than it did with the stdcxx-4.2.1. According to Windows XP, the final size of the /stdcxx-4.2.1/build/ directory (including sub-directories) is 126 MB. There is an /stdcxx-4.2.2/build/liblibstd.a file of size 2.33 MB.

Hi Farid, Thanks for your response -- excellent news! Please feel free to delete, from the stdcxx-user Nabble forum, my two latest postings: Steve Petrie Nov 26, 2008; 01:11am Steve Petrie Nov 26, 2008; 12:27am As they relate to further work I did on stdcxx-4.2.1, following up on Martin's suggestions, before I received your email. * * * * * * I will proceed to get stdcxx-4.2.2, apply the MinGW patch, and post the results I get from a build, on the stdcxx-user Nabble forum.
