I was running configure thus sh configure --prefix=c:/fltk-1.1.4/fltk-1.1.4rc1/ and getting... checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output... configure:error:C compiler cannot create executables. To try to work out what was wrong I wrote a simple hello_world.c program to test things. when I went to compile with gcc -I/syg/usr/include -o hello.o hello_world.c I received the following Assembler messages: Error: can't create /cygdrive/c/TEMP/ccJ6snL.o: No such file or directory I then created the directory /cygdrive/c/TEMP and got Error : can't open /cygdrive/c/TEMP/ccnsEmIl.s for reading : No such file or directory. from all this I gather that when I installed gcc the directory /cygdrive.. should have been created? with some stuff in it. I know f.. all about how the assembler does its stuff! Can anyone tell me where I've stuffed up?
