[GRASS-dev] Make/Configure Issue using Eclipse/Windows

GRASS GRASS developer
1

Hi,

I am trying to get GRASS compiled in a Eclipse/CDT environment on a Windows machine.
The approach includes wrapping the "configure / make /make install" -process in an ant file and works very well behaved on linux boxes.

On a windows box (using msys) "something" is going wrong regarding the header files. This is the first error produced by make, the follow-up errors are similar:

     [exec] gcc -I/d/Nutzer/ploewe/workspace/neo63/dist.i686-pc-mingw32/include -IC:\msys\1.0\local\include -g -O2 -IC:\msys\1.0\local\include -DPACKAGE=\""grasslibs"\" -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DPACKAGE=\""grasslibs"\" -I/d/Nutzer/ploewe/workspace/neo63/dist.i686-pc-mingw32/include -o OBJ.i686-pc-mingw32/auto_mask.o -c auto_mask.c
     [exec] In file included from auto_mask.c:17:
     [exec] G.h:2:23: rpc/types.h: No such file or directory
     [exec] G.h:3:21: rpc/xdr.h: No such file or directory
     [exec] In file included from auto_mask.c:17:
     [exec] G.h:42: error: syntax error before "XDR"
     [exec] G.h:42: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union
     [exec] G.h:47: error: syntax error before '}' token
     [exec] make[3]: *** [OBJ.i686-pc-mingw32/auto_mask.o] Error 1

The GRASS sources have been downloaded from the SVN, so all files are available.

Suggestions, anyone ?

Cheers,
Peter

Did you perform this step:

I.e. does C:\msys\1.0\local\include\rpc\ exist?

Yes it does.

Still puzzled,

Yes it does.

How are the MSys paths getting there, and how are they used?

If the command line is being parsed by a Unix-style shell, the
backslash characters will be "eaten", and probably need to be forward
slashes instead, i.e. "C:/msys/...". You may even need to use e.g.
"/c/msys/..." instead of "C:". If MSys' bash shell is being used, the
path should just be "/usr/local/include".

OTOH, if MSys' bash shell *isn't* being used, then /d/Nutzer/...
probably won't work; Windows itself isn't going to understand that
path.
