Installing on Windows

[Steve]

I installed mingw and used git to install Jazz. When I try to
execute ./jam, I get the following:

'.' is not recognized as an inte
operable program or batch file.

Any hints on how to proceed?


Thanks, Steve

I don't understand how you could get that problem as Jazz doesn't rely on any preinstalled Gambit. It installs it's own Gambit using Git submodules and so should never have a version problem (the error you get is from a check that was put in when Jazz was still dependent on a globally installed Gambit that could be of an incompatible version).

Can you give me some basic info by running the following commands :

- Current directory : pwd

- The content of you jazz directory : ls -al

- Jazz repository info : ./jam info

- Git version : git --version

- Environment variables : env

I see that you only have the "cmd" subdirectory of Git which only
contains the batch script that will run in windows shell. There was an
option when you installed msysgit to add all the binary directories of
git to your path. I guess you did not select it because you didn't
want to override windows console utilities. If it's not the case, add
C:\Program Files (x86)/Git/bin to the windows PATH, else try setting
the path in a .profile file in your msys home directory. The important
thing is that msys' and mingw's bin directories have precedence over
git's one.

[Steve]

Good idea. I will give it a try and let you know.

Okay, I added the Git\bin directory to PATH and when that did not
work, I copied git.exe to git.

I was thinking that the problem was that the system did not know where
git was. But based on the error message, I think the problem is that
the gambit subdirectory is missing. How is that created?

Thanks again for the assistance.

[Jeremie Lasalle Ratelle]

You don't need to download gambit. The jam script will take care of
that. With git correctly in your path, just do

> git clone http://github.com/jazzscheme/jazz
> cd jazz
> jam bootstrap

and it should work. As long as you can run git from your msys console
there should be no problem. It appears you have a gambit directory in
your jazz directory and it doesn't contain the version that jazz
needs. As to how this gambit directory ended up there...

[Steve]

I couldn't seem to get this working with a previously installed git.
So I uninstalled git and mingw and reinstalled mingw. Unfortunately
mingw doesn't seem to contain git. Do you have any suggestions how I
should install git to make it work within mingw?

MinGW and Git are two independent tools.

So now simply install Git using the installer: http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/downloads/detail?name=Git-1.7.4-preview20110204.exe&can=2&q=

And importantly, as Jeremie was saying,  when asked "Adjusting your PATH environment" choose the last option:

"Run Git and included Unix tools from the Windows Command Prompt". This way your MinGW console will have complete access to Git tools.

With this setup, in an MinGW console, here's a quick setup steps :

Thanks to you and Jeremie for your help. And I got farther this time.

Below is an extract of the session. It appears that both jazz and
gambit were downloaded. When the dumping of the stack trace took
place, a window came up saying that dirname.exe had failed. I chose
the close option and the script after a while continued with the
download of gambit. You will notice that despite the error with cd,
the bootstrap\gambit directory does exist. Perhaps it has to do with
the fact that some of the normal Unix commands, such as ls, hang and
no longer seem to work. They now seem to point to Git instead of to
MinGW.

Thanks, Steve

Okay dirname crashing is not normal. Could you do

which dirname

please

[Steve]

I rearranged the directories in PATH, started over and it seems to be
progressing nicely. This must be an enormous system.


Thanks to all. Steve

Guillaume,

Wanted to reinstall Jazz, so I downloaded jazz with the below git clone command and followed it up with ./jam make.  It ran properly for quite some time and just now it aborted with:

config.status: creating bin/gambc-doc.bat.windows

config.status: creating include/config.h

/c/Users/Steve/Desktop/jedi/jazz/jam: line 32: make: command not found

Unable to find ./gambit/bin/gsc

sh-3.1$

I notice that there is no Gambit directory:

sh-3.1$ ls

INSTALL  README  configure  jam  jazz  lib  makefile

sh-3.1$

Not sure why.

Any thoughts?

Thanks, Steve

Hi Steve,

This is due to Windows's really bad console integration.

On Windows we basically have 2 consoles available:

- The MinGW Shell console that can be used to build with the 'make' command but does not understand Git commands

- The Git Bash console that doesn't understand the 'make' command

Problem is that the ./jam script needs to do Git commands *and* invoke the 'make' command.

A simple solution for you is that, at the stage you're at, the Gambit repo has already been cloned, so I'm pretty sure simply starting the MinGW Shell console and redoing the ./jam make command should now go on to completion.

A more complete solution is mentioned in the INSTALL file:

MinGW

  ...

  Also, as both MinGW and Git come with their own shell, the simplest way to

  have a shell supporting both, which is required to build Jazz, is to select

  the "Run Git and included Unix tools from the Windows Command Prompt" when

  installing Git and then using the MinGW shell.

PS: The Gambit directory is under the jazz directory.

Hope this helps,

Guillaume

[Steve Graham]

Odd.

I've tried repeating these steps with the same results.  I even switched the order bin/cmd directories, placing the mingw/msys first in the path.  When I display them from within sh.exe, they show with mingw/msys first, but my anti-virus program keeps telling me that it is the git sh.exe that is running.

Not sure where to go.

I decided to try it on Linux on the same machine. So I added git,
downloaded the jedi.git and proceeded. In 26 minutes I got down to
the following and then failed:

make jazz.media
; compiling jazz/media/_media...
; compiling jazz/media/autoload...
; compiling jazz/media/platform/x11...
Package cairo-ft was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `cairo-ft.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'cairo-ft' found
failed

%

Any thoughts?

I cannot understand why it should be so much faster on Linux than
Windows 7.


Thanks, Steve

Success!  Thanks, Guillaume and all.

As for why  it is so much faster on Linux than Windows 7, i'd say it's mostly your GCC version on Linux, but compilation on Windows has always been slower for me too than on Linux.

Sorry, my mistake. We noticed a couple months ago that our COM interface implementation breaks like that when using GCC 4.7 on Windows. Forgot about that. Guess you're only left with installing a GCC 3.x. But as I said, I'll push a binary release this weekend if you can wait.

Most people here at work use GCC 3.4.5 like me but some I think use the latest 4.7 that seems to have solved the asymptotic problems of the previous 4.x versions.
