Hi,
I just tried to compile the new new libgda v3.99.4 on Windows using MinGW/MSYS.
You mean you're not cross compiling, right?
However I got stuck in the tools directory. Here's the error:
gda-sql-res.rc -o gda-sql-res.o
./gda-sql-res.rc: AppIcon: command not found
make: *** [gda-sql-res.o] Error 127
I see the following problems:
- in tools/Makefile there is a line:
WINDRES =
which should probably be:
WINDRES = windres
I have:
WINDRES = /usr/bin/i586-mingw32msvc-windres
which is set up automatically
- the file tools/gda-sql-res.rc contains only one line:
AppIcon ICON "gda-sql.ico"
it refers to Windows icon file gda-sql.ico which is not included in the tarball.
Ok, I'll correct that ASAP.
- when commenting out all the windows resource stuff there were some undefined references that were fixed by setting
LDFLAGS = -lreadline -lcurses
in tools/Makefile
I don't have this problem.
Apart from that I got it all compiled just fine. However I have only tried with these providers:
mdb
mysql
sqlite
For my own information, could you be more specific about how those providers worked?
Thanks for the report!
Vivien
