Hi David,<br><br>You have raised the right concern. My intention is not to compare various MinGW builds but to understand how to configure Cmake 2.8.2 to build with MinGW-W64, since this support is being added to CMake. As it stands now, given lack of understanding of how to do this with CMake, I am unable to make CMake 2.8.2 RC2 do anything that CMake 2.8 stable cannot do on with respect to MinGW-W64. They both seem to do the same thing with both automatic (neither Cmake version works) and Sezero (both Cmake versions work) builds. I must be configuring something incorrectly.<br><br>In other words, how is CMake team testing with MinGW64? Including where is it being downloaded from (since there is no "release" or "stable" build of it AFAIK).<br><br>PS: I am ready to help wherever I can on this since I am interested in MinGW-W64 support.<br><br>Best regards - Alok<br><br><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Wed, 16 Jun 2010 22:18:34 -0400<br>Subject: Re: [CMake] CMake 2.8.2-rc2 ready for testing!<br>From: david.cole@kitware.com<br>To: alokgovil@hotmail.com<br>CC: cmake@cmake.org<br><br><div>On Wed, Jun 16, 2010 at 10:04 PM, Alok Govil <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:alokgovil@hotmail.com">alokgovil@hotmail.com</a>></span> wrote:</div><div class="ecxgmail_quote"><blockquote class="ecxgmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

Hi all,<br><br>I am unable to build using MinGW-W64, but chances are there would be some configuration issues.<br><br>Here is how I am setup right now:<br><br>1. Download latest "automatic" builds (W64 and W32) from here: <a href="http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/">http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/</a><br>
2. Removed prefixes: For example, renamed file "x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++.exe" in the bin folder to "g++.exe". Am I not supposed to do this anymore?<br>3. Added CMake 2.8.2 RC2 as well as "one" of W64 and W32 to the path.<br>
4. cmake . -G "MinGW Makefiles" // This could be wrong for W64, but fails for even W32.<br> This step is where I get various errors from CMake. It works fine with normal MinGW.<br>5. Then I usually call "mingw32-make" but that is not even there in MinGW-W32 and MinGW-W64!!<br>
<br>Also of note: The following workaround works, even with the CMake 2.8 stable version.<br><br>1. Use Personal/Sezero builds from <a href="http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/">http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/</a><br>
2. Prefixes are already removed in Sezero builds.<br>3. Add only the "needed one" of W64 and W32 to the path.<br>4. cmake . -G "MinGW Makefiles" // Works for both W32 and W64<br>5. "mingw32-make" is present in both W32 and W64 builds. </div>
</blockquote><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>I would appreciate this more, on this list, in reply to this thread, at this time ... if it were at all clear to me that you were comparing a prior CMake release to the currently proposed CMake 2.8.2-rc2.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Rather, it seems like you are comparing "latest" "automatic" builds of mingw-w64 to Personal/Sezero builds of mingw-w64.</div><div><br></div><div>If you use CMake 2.8.2-rc2 with the Personal/Sezero builds, do you see a difference as compared to CMake 2.8.0 or 2.8.1 with the same Personal/Sezero builds?</div>
<div><br></div><div>If this is a mingw-w64 issue, perhaps you could raise it on their mailing lists?</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>David Cole</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><blockquote class="ecxgmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
