Msys2 MinGW64 compilation

[Lucarda]

Hi,

I'm trying to compile the Pd objects for windows 64 bit. No hurries :)

I do and get:

Lucarda@T410 MINGW64 /d/00-volatil/jsusfx/pd
$ cmake -G "MSYS Makefiles" -D CMAKE_C_COMPILER=D:/msys64/mingw64/bin/gcc.exe -D CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=D:/msys64/mingw64/bin/g++.exe .

@Lucarda it's been a long time since the request, but perhaps you can check if my PR #37 fixes this problem?

[Lucarda]

I did a quick test but now I got:

$ make install
[  6%] Generating WDL/eel2/asm-nseel-x64.obj
/bin/sh: php: command not found
make[2]: *** [/E/git-portable/jsusfx/src/CMakeFiles/jsusfx.dir/build.make:62: E:/git-portable/jsusfx/src/WDL/eel2/asm-nseel-x64.obj] Error 127
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:126: E:/git-portable/jsusfx/src/CMakeFiles/jsusfx.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:130: all] Error 2

I don't have php. Never had it. Not sure how to install it.

[jpcima]

Hmm right msys doesn't have it. I did because I make a cross-compilation based on linux.
It'd be nice if jsusfx would allow to use the prebuilts, then it would require neither php nor nasm to build.

I'll make some work towards that in a branch. Another thing is that the upstream has received support of ARM64.
While at it, I consider adding this support, and also universal binary.

[Lucarda]

Let me know when ready for another test.
:)

@Lucarda
You could give my current fork a try, it drops the php requirement.

I'm getting this:

make install

could g++.exe: error: G:/msys64/DPD_LONGINTTYPE=long long: No such file or directory

be replaced with:
-DPD_LONGINTTYPE=__int64
somewhere?

https://github.com/pure-data/pd-lib-builder/blob/master/Makefile.pdlibbuilder#L579

[Lucarda]

If i'm correct the pd.build part is not supposed to work under MINGW but on MSVC.

https://github.com/pierreguillot/pd.build/blob/674c969e39ad3e8fbd38f344488c8bac3667ce6e/pd.cmake#L53

[jpcima]

Perhaps it helps to replace "/D" with "-D" on that exact line.

[Lucarda]

I have done that and suppressed:

	# Generate the function to export for Windows
	#if(${WIN32})
	#	string(REPLACE "~" "_tilde" EXPORT_FUNCTION "${EXTERNAL_NAME}_setup")
	#	set_property(TARGET ${PROJECT_NAME} APPEND_STRING PROPERTY LINK_FLAGS #"/export:${EXPORT_FUNCTION}")
	#endif()

in pd.cmake.

Now I got undefined reference .. in the linking stage. On Windows we link to pd[.lib][.dll] and in this case had to link to libjsusfx~.dll.a ?

Dont know how to do that in Cmake.

[jpcima]

It will need a mingw alternative to that part your commented.
It's that one that lets the dll know that these missing symbols would be found inside pd.exe.

But that part of pd.build is msvc-only. Perhaps you can make something of my external builder which has mingw support. mingw's dlltool can serve to change a def file into an implib.
https://github.com/jpcima/pd-externals/blob/9fe8bbaaff32200e613b5cc6ee8c3a6823eac2ea/cmake/PdExternal.cmake#L13-L30

[Lucarda]

would be found inside pd.exe.

In the current build system Pd symbols are found in pd.build/x64/ in the pd.lib and for MSVC also on pd.def

MINGW is happy finding the symbols in pd.dll (this is how is done with pd-lib-builder.)

[Lucarda]

This is how the linking is done in pd-lib-builder

https://github.com/pure-data/pd-lib-builder/blob/master/Makefile.pdlibbuilder#L590

[Lucarda]

If i'm not mistaken MINGW can statically link to an .a file.

[jpcima]

Yes that's what the code would produce, a linkable .a file. You can make these by command-line too

x86_64-w64-mingw32-dlltool -l x64/libpd.dll.a x64/pd.def
i686-w64-mingw32-dlltool -l x86/libpd.dll.a x86/pd.def
