Dear Cygwin list,
After much messing around, involving a complete new second installation
of Windows NT, I *think* I have got b20.1 installed. Cygnus, it's only
*your* Installshield installer that fails every time on my original NT.
It would be nice if there was a text file or SOMETHING that spells out
exactly what the installer does in the registry & environment, as I had
to spelunk it out of one registry & edit it into the other. Not
pleasant.
I can build a 'hello world' console application happily.
Now I need to build win32 API code, supplied by a third party, to drive
a PCI card in the PC. Here is my makefile (I'm using MKS make, not GNU):
HEADERS := windecl.h
SOURCES := ntcdemo.c
OBJECTS := $(SOURCES:db:+"$(O)")
LIBRARIES := ntgpib.lib
CFLAGS += -g -pedantic -Wall -mwindows
ntcdemo.exe : $(OBJECTS) $(LIBRARIES)
..PRECIOUS $(OBJECTS) : $(HEADERS)
BTW my default value of CFLAGS is null. This generates a bunch of lines
like this (ellipses mark deletions):
susato[230] $ make
gcc -o ntcdemo.exe ntcdemo.o ntgpib.lib

So what is going wrong? I assume some windows libraries are not getting
linked, but how do I find out which? Why all the duplicate sections
warnings from the board vendor's library?
Assuming this code works with MSVC++ (& I have no reason to assume it
doesn't) is it possible to make it work with CYGWIN? Or do I have to get
MSVC++ to use this card I have just bought.
Thanks in advance, and Merry Christmas
