Re: error building base

Thanks, I'll try your suggestions tomorrow...

As to gcc 3.1 -- I built it myself; I had to submit patches to gcc to get it to build; they were just committed to CVS today.

It now builds out of the box but I couldn't get even a trivial C++ program to link properly; but C and Objective-C worked.

I used a fresh Cygwin installation (+ gcc 2.95, etc.) and then built gcc with:

configure --enable-languages=c,objc,c++

It has compiled trivial Objective-C programs but I'm still working on getting Gnustep to build and, unfortunately, I will be without computer after tomorrow for a few weeks (switching jobs).

By the way, I already expressed my desire to see Objective-C built into the next Cygwin on the Cygwin mailing lists -- others might want to do the same so they know its useful to people!

Notice that I am trying to build gnustep-base, but it is being included as a library when compiling the sub-project Tools. There was also an error trying to build the SSL project but I removed the -lgnustep-base


I thought that Richard fixed this problem in CVS some days ago. But it might as well be that it did not show up for me again after I did get base successfully compiled. This is easy to do: Leave out the normal make step and do a make install!

Is this working for anyone else or is it an error in my configuration or is it an error in the make files?
By the way, I'm using gcc 3.1 under Cygwin 1.3.10 on W2K.

Is gcc 3.1 with objc support already available for Cygwin or did you compile it yourself?

Cheers
Fred
