Hi Alexey Thanks for your input. I have tried variations of your suggestions, but there are still questions about the errors and warnings that I would like to clarify. I am still new at this so I maybe making some errors as well, any suggestions would be appreciated.
Concluding test today: by placing virtualtext.c in the \iconc directory together with these files then SQLite3 compiled and produced the *.exe and .dll. But VirtualText did not compile. Previous tests on the weekend: This test used two subdirectories where VirtualText compiled, and SQLite3 did not compile. The best configuration was as you suggested to put iconv in it's own subdirectory so for your info the Msys configuration looks like: home\ SQLite\virtualtext.c iconv\iconv.h, iconv.c In configuring iconv there were path errors so I changed the compiler commands to: gcc -fPIC -lm -shared -I ../iconv/hdr -c ../sqlite/virtualtext.c -o libsqlitevirtualtext.so to eliminate the errors. The changes reference this document: HOWTO Specify the Header File Include Path for use with MinGW Compilers | MinGW MinGW Paths <http://www.mingw.org/wiki/IncludePathHOWTO> Is it right that VirtualText compiles to C:\msys\1.0\home\iconv\libsqlitevirtualtext.so and \iconv as well? SQLite3 does not compile the *.dll, *.exe now. What needs to be changed so that it compiles properly? The current errors follow below. Thanks I appreciate your effort- Gary Gabriel PS- the MinGw mailing list discussed placement of the -l option. Could this be an issue?
