Hello,
I've followed the slightly outdated MinGW compile guide for compiling on(and for) Windows, and, after getting the hang of Git and installing dependencies such as bison & flex, installed the includes such as SDL and libpng (manually at first, then found the 2009 devpkg on sourceforge: out of date, but quicker than downloading & extracting each package manually).

However, despite installing everything described in the old guide, I am still receiving 'file not found' errors, regarding cmath:
(the most pertinent part afaict is at the bottom)

make: *** [message_parser.tab.o] Error 1
rm message_parser.tab.c

I've done a little research, and I now know cmath is part of the C++ standard library. But what I don't understand is why gcc (or make) cannot find it (i did find a copy inside an obscure subdirectory of mingw, but i doubt this is reachable or useable by the compiler).
Although i only found the C version math.h inside "mingw/include", I had hoped that there might be some sort of automatic conversion into the C++ format; and if there wasn't, then why weren't the C++ standard headers included in my copy of gcc? Have I installed the wrong version somewhere?

I am sure I've missed something simple somewhere(and am sorry to waste people's time something probably quite simple); but not knowing what to look for, I have no idea what.
Someone please point out my mistake.
Thankyou

Did you install g++, the C++ compiler?

Posted: **08 Jan 2011, 18:16**

(no Sarcasm Ever Intended)

Code: Select all

>dir c:\mingw\bin g++.exe

Directory of C:\MinGW\bin

17/04/2010  09:08         1,298,446 g++.exe
               1 File(s)      1,298,446 bytes
               0 Dir(s)  14,953,631,744 bytes free

Does that look correct?

here is a pertinent portion of my system path variable:

Code: Select all

%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;
C:\MinGW\bin;C:\gnuwin32\bin;C:\bin;C:\MinGW\include

Update and try again, maybe it works now (I don't think anyone of us actually uses that build system).

Maybe you could update the wiki entry for compiling with MinGW?

Posted: **08 Jan 2011, 20:41**

Once I had the hang of compiling with MinGW on windows, I was intending on adding my tuppence to the wiki. But, alas...
By the way, I did a GIT Pull on my local branch then tried recompiling, but I still got the same error.
Here's my config.mk file, just in case that has anything to do with it?

Posted: **08 Jan 2011, 21:51**

I would try compiling a test program to try to determine where the error is.

[quote=Safety0ff]I would try compiling a test program to try to determine where the error is.[/quote]

I've written a hello world; That also can't find iostream.h or cmath, so I suspect I am missing something very basic about includes in C++.

brb, learning C and C++

(and some home truths about the relative ease of Java

)

(sorry to have probably wasted your time)

If you get the exact error like above (bison creating a c file that gets compiled with gcc instead of a cpp file and g++) your local checkout probably doesn't have the fix.

Try a "git checkout origin/master; git branch -D master; git checkout --track -b master origin/master", then a "git pull" will update your local branch as well (iirc for some reason git on Windows defaults to non-tracking branches).

I have no idea what kooky Git magic you just gave me, but it did indeed fix my cmath error. I have a new error, which I am about to parse through to check for my own mistakes.

one step further!

thankyou
