Building pa_wavplay

[Børge Strand-Bergesen]

Hi,

I'm trying to build pa_wavplay according to
http://old.nabble.com/pa_wavplay-td10426977.html and pa_tut_pc.html in
the Portaudio documentation.

Has anybody done this successfully on Octave 3.2.4 for mingw32 Windows?

The place where it stops for me is:
mkoctfile -I../portaudio_v18_1/pa_common -lportaudio --mex -o
pawavplaya.mex pawavplay.cpp
I run this from inside Octave with the -I (capital i) added to the
command at old nabble.

The error message reads:
c:/octave/3.2.4_gcc-4.4.0/mingw32/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.4.0/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe:
cannot find -lportaudio
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I have searched my computer for portaudio.* without finding anything
resembling a library file. Is this something I have to compile from
source? I've got Visual C++ 2010 Express installed, something which is
hardly covered by the tutorial. Or should I use mingw32 to compile a
portaudio library file?


Thanks,

Børge
