Hi
I'm trying to build MAD under Cygwin but seem to be having trouble with =
paths to the include directory.
I *think* the environment is OK because I can build my own gcc binary by =
running configure then make supplied with the gcc source package.
However, the configure supplied with the MAD source package does not =
seem to be able to detect the include directory (/usr/include I =
believe).=20
For example, I get the message: Checking for ANSI C header files...no =20
The individual header file checks also get a negative result.
Note that configure does in fact run to completion. When I subsequently =
try running make, it recurses into the mad/intl directory then bombs on =
the first header file it can't find. The error message is: In file =
included from intl-compat.c:23 libgettext.h 33: sys/types.h: no such =
file or directory.
By way of background, I set up two project directories to build MAD and =
gcc. They are at the same level, viz:
c:\cygwin\home\Andrew\gcc
c:\cygwin\home\Andrew\mad
I simply unzipped mad-0.14.2b.tar.gz into the second of these =
directories before running configure from that directory.
As part of my experiments, I also regenerated configure using autoconf =
but this did not pick up the path to the include directory.
Right now I'm stumped as to why gcc builds OK but MAD won't. Can someone =
please suggest a remedy to my problem?
My system is a PC running Win98 and a Duron processor.
Apologies if this is all rather naive - I admit it is my first =
experience with Cygwin and building GNU software.=20
Regards
Andrew
