From: myles@puck.nether.net (Myles Uyema) Subject: crosscompiling from Linux 15 Sep 1997 23:03:33 -0700 Message-ID: <19970915193852.02973.cygnus.gnu-win32@uyema.nws.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/signed; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; micalg=pgp-md5; boundary=FL5UXtIhxfXey3p5 To: gnu-win32@cygnus.com --FL5UXtIhxfXey3p5 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Okay so I've got the tools and libraries, built the cross-binutils and cross-compiler (egcs-970910), but now how do I get around the complaint of the GNU autoconf script saying: checking for gcc... i586-cygwin32-gcc checking whether the C compiler (i586-cygwin32-gcc ) works... yes checking whether the C compiler (i586-cygwin32-gcc ) is a cross-compiler... yes .. .. .. checking whether setvbuf arguments are reversed... configure: error: can not run test program while cross compiling This happens trying to configure the inetutils-1.3a GNU package. CC=i586-cygwin32-gcc ../inetutils-1.3a/configure --disable-servers --disable-ncurses --host=i586-linux --target=i586-cygwin32 For that matter, this happens with most of the networking apps which come with GNU autoconf script. This same error also happens trying to cross-compile the BitchX IRC application. It's been compiled on gnu-win32 natively, but I don't have fulltime access to a NT/95 system, and I'd rather build cywin32 apps from my home linux system instead of installing win95 and the CDK package. -- Myles Uyema myles@puck.nether.net --FL5UXtIhxfXey3p5 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3 Comment: finger myles@puck.nether.net for PGP key iQCVAwUBNB4bbOGK2tv+HcGxAQFOXQP/XSuhj0Rwt2ZCMJBxG2tGI7AR4Raqz0bS e3SkCyqUBZw5X/wnOsLo1v4jIIdOwum0EuvAYBQt+NfO9MFbLluCb45L5M9zlcrY vRgVsUn5j1O/iVRaD0jr26im4ALYfMi7qb234vnVpfzrLdZh1N9Y/3Glu5DiRAhS /F19FMdjlvs= =ryMS -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --FL5UXtIhxfXey3p5-- - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
