Please help me out. I spent for three days but I still could install gcc in window on cygwin.
Problem is I could not install gcc file, (mingw-w64-trunk-snapshot-20091222.tar.bz2), on cygwin in window platform. I would like to unpack and intall gcc (mingw-w64-trunk-snapshot-20091222.tar.bz2) on cygwin on window platform. I follow instruction posted on http://cygwin.wikia.com/wiki/How_to_install_GCC_4.3.0. The problem I have found out is I could not process the configure step as below. The result shows "No such file or directory" Steps: $ mkdir build $ cd build $ ../gcc-*/configure --enable-languages=c,c++ $ make $ make install May it be because of (1) setting srcdir or objdir non-correctly or (2) else ? What I have done are: 1. Download gcc file and load it into /usr/build. Build subfolder is created by me. --> ( equal to $ mkdir build and $ cd build) 2. Unpack gcc tar.bz2 file (mingw-w64-trunk-snapshot-20091222.tar.bz2) on that location. --> It generates trunk subfolder that contains some subfolder too. 3. $mkdir build and $cd build --> current location is urs/build 4. $ ../trunk/configure --enable-languages=c,c++ --> It does not work. Error = "No such file or directory" Comparing to what you recommend on http://gcc.gnu.org/install/configure.html , To configure GCC: % mkdir objdir % cd objdir % srcdir/configure [options] [target] You mentions that objdir can not be a subdirectory of srcdir. This is why I tried one more time with the different folder and the same level under usr folder. What I did are: 1. Download gcc (mingw-w64-trunk-snapshot-20091222.tar.bz2) for window platform again into usr/tmp 2. Unpack it in the usr/tmp/. The path result are approximately usr/tmp/trunk/mingw..1* usr/tmp/trunk/mingw..2* usr/tmp/trunk/mingw..3* usr/tmp/trunk/mingw..4* 3. $cd build --> under usr folder --> current location is usr/build --> build is already created by me on the previous work. 4 command to configure -> $../mingw-w64-trunk-snapshot-20091222.tar.bz2/configure --enable-language=c,c++ --> Show error msg = "No such file or directory" 5. Try $ ../trunk/mingw-w64-trunk-snapshot-20091222.tar.bz2/configure --enable-language=c,c++ --> Show error msg = "No such file or directory". Please help me out. I don't why I could not and thank you very much, Jasmine Ps. I am pretty much new with cygwin and this is my first time. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
