FAangband compilation error unrecognized command line option '-mno-cygwin'

[hernaldog]

Hi guys,
I return with my personal project: the translation of FAangband versión 1.4.4 to Spanish. I'm i 60% of text translation. But I need compile the source.

The source that I using are from 24-05-2016.

I use Windows 10.

I download Cygwin x64 and MinGW, both last version, but I get the next error:

Using MinGW:

mingw32-make -f Makefile.win
gcc -DWINDOWS -static -Iwin/include -Lwin/lib -Wall -Wextra -Wno-unused-parameter -Wno-missing-field-initializers -std=c99 -Wdeclaration-after-statement -O2 -I. -mno-cygwin -c -o identify.o identify.c
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-mno-cygwin'; did you mean '-mno-clwb'?
Makefile.win:127: recipe for target 'identify.o' failed
mingw32-make: *** [identify.o] Error 1

Using Cygwin:

make -f Makefile.win
gcc -DWINDOWS -static -Iwin/include -Lwin/lib -Wall -Wextra -Wno-unused-parameter -Wno-missing-field-initializers -std=c99 -Wdeclaration-after-statement -O2 -I. -mno-cygwin -c -o identify.o identify.c
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-mno-cygwin'; did you mean '-mno-clwb'?
Makefile.win:127: recipe for target 'identify.o' failed
mingw32-make: *** [identify.o] Error 1

Any help?

try
MINGW=YES mingw32-make -f makefile.win
This works for Vanilla. I don't know if it will work for FA, which is a fairly old distro apparently depending on an older version of gcc.

I can confirm that Pete's command line works for me; that's Windows 10, msys (version 1.0, I think?) and mingw. gcc version is 4.6.2.

Hi Pete, thanks for your response.
Now I get the error:

src>MINGW=YES mingw32-make -f makefile.win
"MINGW" no se reconoce como un comando interno o externo,
programa o archivo por lotes ejecutable.

In english: it is not recognized as an internal or external command,
program or batch file executable.

Maybe, I miss some environment variable?

I have in the Path variable, C:\MinGW\bin

How can I know my version of gcc?

regards!

The point of the

MINGW=yes

part of the command is to set the environment variable MINGW to yes, so you could do that separately, probably by

export MINGW="yes"

To get your version of gcc,

gcc --version

Hi Nick

I add manually by Windows Preferences the environment variable, and this compiled ok.

The command I used was:

mingw32-make -f Makefile.win

Thanks!
