Unable to cross-compile using mingw-w64 on Ubuntu

[wolfy1339]

Hi, I was trying to compile CorsixTH (024ea8a5053f38e5097439e0cf81a2bcc2432590) on Ubuntu Utopic (14.10) and CMake was complaining that my compiler was broken, I tried reinstalling it but that didn't help.

I am using this command to configure CMake.

cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=build_files/tolchain-mingw.cmake -DSDL_LIBRARY=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libSDL2.dll.a -DSDL_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/include/SDL2 -DSDLMAIN_LIBRARY=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libSDL2main.a -DSDLMIXER_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/include/SDL2 -DSDLMIXER_LIBRARY=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libSDL2_mixer.dll.a -DWITH_MOVIES=Off -DWITH_FREETYPE2=Off -DWITH_LUAJIT=On -DLUA_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/includ
e/luajit-2.0 -DLUA_LIBRARY=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libluajit.a

Here is CMake's output with that command:

-- The C compiler identification is GNU 4.9.1-- The CXX compiler identification is GNU 4.9.1
-- Check for working C compiler: /usr/bin/i686-w64-mingw32-gcc

You have a typo in the CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE.  Too o's in toolchain.

Enjoy.

I have tried that, and sadly still get the same error message

[Stephen E. Baker]

Well I imagine the main problem is still with the toolchain: See http://www.cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=13855

To find your error I'll need a pastebin that tells me everything you did to set it up (installing the dependencies, cloning corsixth, running cmake) including paths.

SET(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME Windows) should be disabling -rdynamic.

For the dependencies, I just downloaded SDL and SDL mixer from the SDL website. LuaJIT, I compiled it myself. I cloned CorsixTH using "git clone git://github.com/CorsixTH/CorsixTH.git"

i changed directory to CorsixTH and ran "cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=build_files/toolchain-mingw.cmake -DSDL_LIBRARY=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libSDL2.dll.a -DSDL_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/include/SDL2 -DSDLMAIN_LIBRARY=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libSDL2main.a -SDLMIXER_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/include/SDL2 -DSDLMIXER_LIBRARY=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libSDL2_mixer.dll.a -DWITH_MOVIES=Off -DWITH_FREETYPE2=Off -DWITH_LUAJIT=On -DLUA_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/include/luajit-2.0 -DLUA_LIBRARY=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libluajit.a -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=Windows"
