Not all of the demo app apps are working, after configuring and making FLTK library (Windows 10, MinGW, gcc/g++)

[Mich Paw]

Hello,

I tried to configure and make FLTK, and run the test/demo app, but table apps, did not run. Please help. I'm using Windows 10, minGW, and gcc/g++. Here's log:

Side note: None of these configure options is necessary under Windows
with MinGW. You can just use `make'.

Did you run configure + make previously?

This all looks like configure/make had been executed before, maybe with
different configure options or a different compiler.

Please run configure + make again with:

make distclean
make

Note: this will run configure automatically with default options.

If you still get error messages, please post the new error messages and
your version(s) of gcc, g++, autoconf, and make:

make --version
autoconf --version
gcc --version
g++ --version

[Greg Ercolano]

In addition to the responses, if you're just trying to run the
table demo and it hasn't built because sudoku somehow failed,
try just cd'ing into the test directory and running:

make table

..and if it builds properly, you can run table.exe.

That is strange, as sudoku.rc should be part of the fltk tar/zip file,
so it being gone means somehow it was deleted..?

Try extracting just the test/sudoku.rc file from the tar/zip file
and re-run make, to see if it gets past the sudoku error and builds
everything else.

[Mich Paw]

Hello,

I executed the commands

./configure --enable-threads --enable-localjpeg --enable-localzlib --enable-

localpng

make distclean
make

And I had the same error with sudoku.rc

Here are versions:

$ make --version

That's really strange. I tried to compile after deleting test/sudoku.rc
and I get:

make[1]: *** No rule to make target `sudoku.rc', needed by `sudoku.exe'.
make[1]: Target `all' not remade because of errors.

make: *** [all] Error 1

which is a different error message than you posted and plausible.

Same here, so this looks fine.

This error message is strange: sudoku.rc should be processed by windres,
not by gcc. And I don't know where '-x c' would come from.

This error message looks more plausible, but why does it follow the
message above ? I don't know. It should precede the first message since
windres should be executed first. Strange. Sorry, can't help with this.

Hint: try 'make -k' to see if everything else can be compiled and linked.

Okay, everything except sudoku seems to work.

Please run these commands in the given order in the FLTK root directory
and post their output:

grep windres makeinclude
cd test
make -k
make -n

The first command should show:

$ grep windres makeinclude
RC = /mingw/bin/windres

If it displays anything else this is likely the cause of the error.

The last command should display something similar to this:

$ make -n
echo Linking sudoku.exe...
/mingw/bin/windres sudoku.rc sudokures.o

[The line above shows the execution of windres.]

g++ -O3 -Wall -Wunused -Wno-format-y2k -fno-exceptions
-fno-strict-aliasing -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections
-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -mwindows -DWIN32
-DUSE_OPENGL32 -O3 -Wall -Wunused -Wno-format-y2k -fno-exceptions

sudoku.o sudokures.o -o sudoku.exe -lwinmm ../lib/libfltk_images.a
../lib/libfltk.a -L../lib -lfltk_png -lfltk_z -lfltk_jpeg -lole32
-luuid -lcomctl32

The wrapped line above would be the execution of the linker step.

Please post (copy and paste) the exact output on your system.

[Mich Paw]

$ make -n

[Albrecht Schlosser]

Hmm, that looks all fine.

What does

$ file /mingw/bin/windres

display?

[Mich Paw]

What do you mean?

When I run /mingw/bin/windres.exe nothing shows. I have to stop it by typing CTRL + Z, and ENTER.
