So, I went back to MinGW and managed to get a compiler chain for Windows 7 64bit working with mingw64 and using MingGW / Msys and additionally I was able to get the Wget gui to actually work correctly... so in essence, Windows users will have a nice gui like interface to install the Unix tools they need for the compiler chain. In the Msys terminal window, you just type "mingw-get" and it launches the gui.
The only thing that is not packaged up in the gui as a mouse click away is the actual headers and CRT for Mingw64 for gcc to use. The headers/CRT is currently a separate download and has to be unzipped into the C:\MinGW folder. LLVM seemed to get built just fine under Release+Asserts it says. Libuv is a different matter... it can't find uv.h for whatever dasterdly reason, even though it is sitting right there under its foot C:/MinGW/msys/1.0/home/Thad/rust/src/libuv/include/uv-private (folder) C:/MinGW/msys/1.0/home/Thad/rust/src/libuv/include/uv.h (file) Here's the paste and asking the community for help on what next ? .. http://pastebin.mozilla.org/2375997 -- -Thad http://www.freebase.com/view/en/thad_guidry
