Failed to build in mingw

Failed to build in mingw

andrewstarks opened this issue 13 years ago · 14 comments

Hey all,

I'm attempting an install on Windows 7 and I followed your instructions for XP. After much, much trial and error, I'm to the point now where I can run:

cmake -G "MSYS Makefiles" -D ZMQ_PATH=c:/zeromq ..

It runs without error. I run "make" and get the following output:

...which is less than sweet. :)

I've tried it all in the default directory and in /usr/local/ and it makes no difference. If this helps, I ran it in interactive mode and copied the settings:

Andrew Starks@WIN-E28PFBCKACQ /c/src/lua-zmq/build

Any other info that I can provide, I'd be happy to do so.

FYI:

The instructions break is lua is not installed. Perhaps that is an assumed condition because LuaJIT without Lua is somehow incomplete? Either way, for completeness, it would be nice if the instructions assumed a bare bones install, provided that it currently starts with the installation of LuaJIT.

Thank you so much!

Answer 1 · 2012-02-11T03:37:25.000Z

The latest code should compile now without the errors about a missing 'bool' type.

lua-zmq needs the .h header files that define Lua's public C API. LuaJIT should include a copy of these files, they are the same for both Lua & LuaJIT. LuaJIT puts it's copy of the files in /usr/include/luajit-2.0/. The CMake build script for lua-zmq corrently only looks for those headers as they would be installed with the standard Lua VM. For now just copy the .h files from /usr/include/luajit-2.0 to /usr/include/.

Answer 2 · 2012-02-11T11:13:55.000Z

Thank you so much for your reply. I did as you said and copied all of the .h (and .hpp and then for fun, the Lua51.dll) into the usr/include directory from the /usr/local/include and /usr/local/bin directory. (at this point, I plan to go back when this is hashed out and delete everything that is not needed and report my findings).

Unfortunately, no joy. I believe that I'm getting the same error. Forgive me for posting all of the error codes, if it wasn't necessary:

Is there something else that I can post that would be more helpful? I greatly appreciate your assistance.

Answer 3 · 2012-02-11T11:17:07.000Z

Also, I believe that these are my environment variables, if this helps (I'm somewhat of a newbie, my main environment is a Mac and mingw/Windows/bash is not something I use daily):

LUA_DEV="/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1"
LUA_INCLUDE_DIR="/usr/local/include"
LUA_PATH="/usr/local/bin"

Also, do you suspect that there could be a 64bit/32bit issue going on? Perhaps I compiled one thing 64bit and another 32bit? I don't want to go digging there if that doesn't sound plausible...

Closer, I think. It appears to have gotten further. I wish that I could help more than just pointing out that the build fails. :) Here is the error that i received:

Oops, I missed two usages of 'false' in the C code. Pushed fix.

Answer 8 · 2012-02-12T13:04:01.000Z

Okay, so that got me to the linker, but we're not home free, yet. :) It appears that lua.h is not being found by something, so I may not have everything in the correct, magical locations. Or, there is a compiler flag missing, or...or...

Anyway, here is the output from "make":

Answer 9 · 2012-02-13T09:29:00.000Z

The problem is not with the header files since they are only used during the compile step and not during the linking step. The problem is that the lua-zmq module needs to be linked against the lua51.dll on windows. On most posix systems Lua C modules shouldn't be linked with the Lua shared library (lua.so).

I just got Windows 7 up and running under vmware so I can work on finding a fix for this.

ok, I got it to build, but I had to dissable the FFI-bindings to make it work. For the windows plantform I had disabled FFI support for now, until I can find a solution to make it work.

You might have to set these CMake variables for it to compile:
LUA_INCLUDE_DIR="C:/luajit2/include/luajit-2.0/"
LUA_LIBRARY="C:/luajit2/bin/lua51.dll"

and these to so "make install" will work:
INSTALL_CMOD="C:/luajit2/bin/"
INSTALL_CMOD="C:/luajit2/bin/lua/"

I will also email you a zip of LuaJIT2,zeromq,lua-zmq,lua-llthreads that I compiled.

The build process with MingW is very ackward and error prone, I tried to go through it after recognizing that there is no description how to do it with the MS compilers.
Can't you please provide a Makefile for the MS compilers. e.g VisualStudio2010 ? It would make much easier
(e.g. as LuaJIT itself provides a build for MSVC)

Thanks for your support!
