Re: [Chicken-users] Compiling the IUP egg - IUP not found

[Joe Python]

Thomas,

In my C:\mingw32\include directory I have added the following files from ffcall:
avcall.h
callback.h
trampoline.h
trampoline_r.h
vacall.h
vacall_r.h

And In my C:\mingw32\lib directory I have added the following libs compiled from ffcall:
libavcall.a
libavcall.la
libvacall.a
libtrampoline.a
libcallback.a
libcallback.la

However I still get the same  'IUP not found' error message when i do the chicken-install.

Hello,

the IUP egg depends on the ffcall library [1] in order to be able to construct
function pointers which can be registered as IUP callbacks and which forward
their arguments to a Scheme procedure. It is likely that this library is missing
on your system if the above message appears even though IUP is installed and
can be found by the C compiler and linker.

I admit that the warning message is stupid and I have therefore changed it in
the trunk version of the egg, but I haven't tagged a new release of the egg
because I also modified other minor things that depend on changes in CHICKEN
4.6.2.

Ciao,
Thomas
