I have started trying to get everything together I need for my hugin/ minGW attempt. This worked fine until I came to try and compile the OpenEXR code [typically this was the last biggish packet on the list]. This code seems to depend on another library, ilmbase. Now ilmbase won't compile until it has POSIX threads. I downloaded pthreads-w32 and tried to coax the libilm configure into accepting pthread-w32's output, but to no avail. I keeps telling me that
checking for the pthreads library -lpthreads... no checking whether pthreads work without any flags... no checking whether pthreads work with -Kthread... no checking whether pthreads work with -kthread... no checking for the pthreads library -llthread... no checking whether pthreads work with -pthread... no checking whether pthreads work with -pthreads... no checking whether pthreads work with -mthreads... no checking for the pthreads library -lpthread... no checking whether pthreads work with --thread-safe... no checking whether pthreads work with -mt... no checking for pthread-config... no configure: error: POSIX thread support required and fails. My coaxing went so that I made some links from pthread- w32's output to where I think libilm should expect to find them: ln pthreadGC2.dll /usr/local/lib/pthread.dll ln libpthreadGC2.a /usr/local/lib/libpthread.a for good measure, I also put links into the other /lib and /bin directories, but to no avail... Alternatively, I tried to compile the libilm code without threading, by configuring it like: ./configure --enable-threading=no --disable-posix-sem which at least makes the configure run through, but then subsequently the make fails. Has anyone been there? and then done what? momentarily stalled KFJ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hugin and other free panoramic software" group.
