RE: how to use "make" to build such project as lemur etc. on winxp.

[tianweixin]

I have read some topics on google and know that this kind of project direction files are generated like this:
1.run autoscan to generate a prototype of configure.in.
2.run aclocal and autoconf to generate configure.
3.run automake to generate makefile.in.
and so
given on linux to rebuild this kind of projects the step is:
1.run configure to generate the Makefile from Makefile.in.
2.run make to rebuild.
 
my question is that whether exist a suite of full-function win32 version tools include gcc,make,perl,autoscan,automake etc.that can easy rebuild on winxp projects generated on linux just like the lunix way.
is the steps i mentioned above a prevailing one presently?
 
 
thanks a lot.
 
 
T.Wsting.

Ok, I did some research and i found that the easiest way is to use the installer; next should be the Visual Studio Solution file "Lemur.sln" to build the project under Visual Studio 2003 or later; and then to use MinGW. For MinGW you need to download MSYS type of MinGW and Make tool for MinGW.

I hope this helps :)

Ok let me try it first and I would let you know of my experience.

One thing that i ponder upon is, why don't you use the i386 installer for windows from:

http://nchc.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/lemur/lemur-4.7-install.exe

Don't do it with MinGW developer studio. Instead use the console version of MinGW. It would work exactly as if you are working on any BASH shell. Follow the exact steps that you follow on linux bash Shell.

You need to run the MinGW shell ( msys.bat file) from console with Administrator user ( or any user having administrative privileges ) and there you go...

Let me google and send you the exact download link for MinGW console version...
