Building under Windows with MinGW

Hello, 

Can anyone provide me with instructions on how to build Xerces-C++ 3.1.1 under Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit with MinGW 4.4.1. Im not using MSYS or CygWin, just Windows and MinGW. MinGW was installed as part of CodeLite.

I do not have access to any version of Visual Studio and the Visual Studio compiled libraries appear to be causing my MinGW/G++ setup some grief during compiling/linking.

Thanks in advance
Bidski

What problems are you seeing?

Re: Building under Windows with MinGW

strange thing ...... i cleaned up a couple of my directories and got rid of 
my old xerces directory (the one i was using before i compiled my own) then 
re-compiled my program and all of a sudden its telling me that my 
libxerces-c-3-1.dll (in the bin folder) is of an unrecognized file format.

it compiled fine earlier today (except for those warnings that I mentioned), 
why would it fail now?

Ok, got it compiled under CygWin using the -mno-cygwin argument and have 
linked with the new dll and all of the undefined references have gone but i 
still get these 2 warnings

G:/Xerces-c-3.1.1/include/xercesc/util/KVStringPair.hpp:176: warning: 'void
xercesc_3_1::KVStringPair::setKey(const XMLCh*, XMLSize_t)' redeclared

without dllimport attribute after being referenced with dll linkage

Are these anything to be concerned about?

Re: Building under Windows with MinGW

Posted by Lars Uffmann <la...@dlr.de>.
Hey Bidski,

If you are willing to not use CygWin and instead go for MSYS, I'm 
willing to work out a good guide together with you. I have successfully 
compliled xerces-c both unter CygWin and MSYS (both with MinGW) in the 
recent past but decided to go for MSYS because CygWin required an extra 
DLL to be distributed along with my executables. I had some extra 
problems with MSYS, which I wanted to hammer out when I get some spare 
time at work.

If you want to get in touch to work this issue together, with the output 
of a step-by-step guide that walks people through compiling from source, 
then send me an email.

I'm a bit busy these weeks, but maybe I can fit in some time for this.

Best Regards,

   Lars

Re: Building under Windows with MinGW

Posted by Bidski <bi...@bigpond.net.au>.
When I first started using this setup I downloaded the xerces-c 3.1.1 
pre-compiled binaries for x86_64-windows Visual Studio 10, hoping that they 
would be good enough to use with my MinGW/CodeLite setup. Obviously I was 
wrong, so I downloaded the xerces-c 3.1.1 source and compiled this under 
CygWin with the following as my configure command

                    ./configure CFLAGS=-mno-cygwin 
CXXFLAGS=-mno-cygwin --host=x86_64-w64-mingw32 --prefix=/home/Bidski/xerces 
LDFLAGS=-no-undefined

If i link to dll file that was created with from the source that I compiled 
under CygWin and include the header files from that same source, ld 
complains that the dll file is of unrecognizable format. Here is the actual 
output from g++.

g++ -o ./Debug/MRP ./Debug/mrp_app.o ./Debug/mrp_frame.o ./Debug/catlist.o 
./Debug/inventory.o ./Debug/InventoryXML.o ./Debug/resources.rc.o

G:/Xerces/bin/libxerces-c-3-1.dll: file not recognized: File format not 
recognized
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I decided to mix things up a bit, basically because I was bored and I wanted 
to see what would happen. So I used the dll from the source I compiled and 
included the header files from the pre-compiled binaries I originally 
downloaded, with the result that I get 4 sets of the same 2 warnings.

G:/Xerces/include/xercesc/util/KVStringPair.hpp:176: warning: 'void 
xercesc_3_1::KVStringPair::setKey(const XMLCh*, XMLSize_t)' redeclared 
without dllimport attribute after being referenced with dll linkage
G:/Xerces/include/xercesc/util/KVStringPair.hpp:190: warning: 'void 
xercesc_3_1::KVStringPair::setValue(const XMLCh*, XMLSize_t)' redeclared 
without dllimport attribute after being referenced with dll linkage

Which is basically the original problem I was having. If I link with the 
library in the lib folder (.dll.a?) I get the big list of undefined 
references that I mentioned in one of my earlier emails.

If I link with the .dll.a file and use the original pre-compiled binaries 
header files I get the warnings and the undefined references, if I link with 
the .dll.a file and use the headers from the compiled source I only get the 
undefined references.

Can anyone tell me which file im supposed to be linking with? Im assuming 
its supposed to be with the dll in the bin folder.

Any can anyone tell me why, when using the headers from my compiled source 
ld says that the dll is of unrecognized format?

Thanks
Bidski

You will need to get one of those (CygWin is probably easier). Then
follow build instructions from the Xerces-C++ website.
