Dear Fadi and David,

I could successfully build 4.2.2 and it is working.

Best regards and thanks for quick help.

Dear Madam/Sir,

I downloaded 4.2.0 (chicken-4.2.0.tar.gz) and tried to build it on mingw-msys. (OS: Microsoft Windows XP SP 3).

I gave following shell command
make PLATFORM=mingw-msys

It throws following errors -

... << text above this line is not copied here>> ...
Creating library file: libchicken.dll.a
extras.o:extras.c:(.text+0x6fdd): undefined reference to `_srandom'

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [libchicken.dll] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/c/Dhanraj/downloads/chicken/chicken-4.2.0'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Before throwing this error it created libchicken.a, libuchicken.a, .o files and libchicken.dll.a (256 KB).

Am I missing anything in the build process?

Thanks in anticipation.

Best regards,

Shannon.
