Latest MINGW builds

Windows
1

i got a juce app to build but:

#include <wspiapi.h>

is needed in the juce_Socket.cpp (you need to get that file off the internet, it’s not in the MINGW distro)

also

#include <imm.h>

is needed in juce_win32_NativeIncludes.h

list of libraries needed for linking:

libshell32.a
libole32.a
libvfw32.a
libwinmm.a
libwininet.a
libws2_32.a
libdsound.a
libwsock32.a
libwldap32.a
libkernel32
libopengl32.a
libglu32.a
libuuid.a
librpcrt4.a
libgdi32.a
libcomdlg32.a
libversion.a
libdsound.a
libimm32
libshlwapi

I do get a SIGSEGV everytime i try to open a new window with images in it, VS/Linux/OSX do not report any problems when doing the same operations it only appears when using MINGW

Nice!.. and thanks for the info.
Using that, I have created an Eclipse workspace that compile in Windows (MinGW) and Debian 6.
Now we have a tool to use with JUCE 1.54.27 under Eclipse and Windows/Linux.
I made four build configurations:

  • Debug (Linux)
  • Release (Linux)
  • Debug (Windows)
  • Release (Windows)

I tested it with JUCE_HELLO_WORLD and JUCE_DEMO projects without any problem.
The workspace is here:
http://www.4shared.com/file/EevDkTtf/JUCE_ECLIPSE_LINUX_WINDOWS.html

You can download juce1.54.17 with MinGW changes from here:
http://www.4shared.com/file/_dR0DJjQ/JUCE1_54_27_MinGW.html

What changes did you need to make for mingw? If it’s simple stuff I’d be happy to roll it into the main build.

Hi Jules, these are my minor corrections to compile with MinGW:

  1. Correction: MinGW doesn’t support the function __uuidof, so you should modify the file
    "\juce\src\native\windows\juce_win32_ComSmartPtr.h" with this:

    template
    HRESULT QueryInterface (ComSmartPtr& destObject) const
    {
    #ifndef MINGW32
    return this->QueryInterface (__uuidof (OtherComClass), destObject);
    #else
    return E_NOTIMPL;
    #endif
    }

  2. Correction: MinGW doesn’t find functions “getaddrinfo” and “freeaddrinfo”. Be sure that you have installed
    the file “wspiapi.h” in your “MinGW/include” directory. If not, you should get a copy from
    http://www.koders.com/c/fid275FEAF57FA3E640A9425FB3A46D988E1F72B61D.aspx
    Then append a #include <wspiapi.h> in “.\juce\src\io\network\juce_Socket.cpp”

  3. Correction: MinGW doesn’t find “HIMC” class and others when compiling “\juce\src\native\windows\juce_win32_Windowing.cpp”.
    You should append “#include <Imm.h>” at beginning, and then append “libimm32.a” to linker library configuration.

That’s all

Ok, thanks…

But beware that if you stub-out that QueryInterface method, a whole heap of COM-based functionality is going to stop working! Isn’t there are way to simulate __uuidof in mingw?

Oh… and you must be hacking on an old version of the library - in the latest modules branch I’ve already done some of this.

Searching the web, I found that by the moment we don’t have a __uuidof function for MinGW.
Some people get GUIDs from VS debugger and then copy them to the code.

I guess it’s not a smart way to do it but it should works.

See the topic bellow:

More ideas:

Mingw is not perfect :frowning:
