Re: GCC failed with configure.pl

[Will Coleda]

Do you have a C compiler installed?

Hi All,

I am new to parrot and i am trying to install this in windows 7.
I have installed perl and minGW and have added these to my PATH as well.

But i get the following error :

C:\Users\ashiva\Documents\GitHub\parrot>perl Configure.pl
Parrot Version 5.5.0 Configure 2.0
Copyright (C) 2001-2013, Parrot Foundation.

Hello, I'm Configure. My job is to poke and prod your system to figure out
how to build Parrot. The process is completely automated, unless you passed in
the `--ask' flag on the command line, in which case I'll prompt you for a few
pieces of info.

Since you're running this program, you obviously have Perl 5--I'll be pulling
some defaults from its configuration.

init::manifest -      Check MANIFEST.....................................done.
init::defaults -      Set Configure's default values.....................done.
init::install -       Set up installation paths..........................done.
init::hints -         Load platform and local hints files................done.
inter::progs -        Determine what C compiler and linker to use...Compilation
failed with 'gcc'

C:\Users\ashiva\Documents\GitHub\parrot>

Please help me resolve this problem.

Thanks a lot, in advance.

Hello Duke,

I am trying one of the examples in the .pod you have given :

  /* foo.c */

  /* specify the function prototype */
  #ifdef __WIN32
  __declspec(dllexport) void foo(void);
  #else
  void foo(void);
  #endif

  void foo(void) {
    printf("Hello Parrot!\n");
  }

Then, after having compiled the file as a shared library, the PIR code looks like this:

Here, how do I compile the .c file to produce a .pir file ??

Thanks,

Ashiva

Thanks & Regards,

Howdy,

You can embed Parrot inside of a C or C++ application. It can be any
language, actually (it works with FORTRAN), but we have the best docs
for C and C++. I have embedded Parrot inside of PostgreSQL (PL/Parrot
[0]), but that uses the old interface [1]. The new interface [2] is
infinitely better, but has not been heavily used. But it was designed
very well by Whiteknight, so it is high quality.

You can also call out to C/C++ libraries from parrot via "dlopen" and
cousins via the Native Call Interface (NCI) substem of Parrot [3].

Which of those things do you want to do, or possibly both?
