Hi Robert,
As it seems your goal is to get Hypergiant running on Windows, I have to let you know that you're venturing into uncharted territory. It's not something I've ever tried before!
That said, there error that you've shared with us is fairly straight-forward:
> ingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lglfw
This is the source of the problem which is saying that it's not able to link to GLFW. This could mean that you don't have GLFW (
http://www.glfw.org/) installed in the right place (which could also be the case for other eggs that depend on external libraries) or that the egg itself is not linking to it correctly. The latter is certainly possible, since I don't think it's been tested on Windows before.
If you want more help working through this, just send me an email. If you find that the egg is doing something wrong, I'm happy to patch it for you. Of course, if you want to continue conversing with this lovely mailing list, feel free to do that, too ;-) Maybe someone here has gotten Hypergiant running on Windows.
Cheers,
Alex
I am running Windows 10, with MinGW-64 32-bit version, since I have the Windows binary for CHICKEN-IUP which is 32-bit. Some eggs have installedj fine - format, sql-de-lite, Spiffy, and other spiffy eggs, numbers, srfi's, gl-math, awful, and awful-server, but others - blas, hypergiant, hyperscene, and termbox fail with the same type of error - (require-library setup-api).
I would like to be able to load blas, atlas-lapack, hypergiant, and hyperscene for math and game dev.
I always run chicken-install, csi and csc from the MinGW command window. Below is the last half of the log of my command line when trying to install the hypergiant egg. I have installed glfw and glew on windows with paths set outside of CHICKEN-IUP. Hypergiant has a lot of dependencies, but some of the smaller eggs fail in a similar fashion. Any ideas? Thank you.
