[Build your own automatic toolchain]: CMake-based MinGW-w64 Cross Toolchain [Modified for MinGW-w64 5.0.3]
Par david techer, mercredi 7 février 2018 à 02:14 :: Cross-Compilation
Project on Githhub
Pros- https://github.com/lachs0r/mingw-w64-cmake
- Pretty cool project to build your automatic toolchain for MinGW-w64 either for 32 bits or 64 Bits
- MinGW-w64 points to the GitHub repository (head/master bran), which is pretty a wrong choice because it can break stability for any program. Better to get it pointing to 5.0.3 (stable version)
- Not portable because it depends on some packages being installed on your system like GMP version.... But it can be easily fixed by adding/building theses dependancies GMP/MPC/MPFR in the toolchain -- not covered here !!!--
Some notes
I will recommend this project because it uses cmake so it can be maintained easily. Its code is pretty understandable. Surely better than pure bash script. MXE is pretty well-known to install a cross toolchain quickly. But if you were wondering if there is any other project that can do it, I will say that this one is prety cool. You can- reuse its code
- add/build your own packages
- Cmake-language is a nice language -- just one or 2 levels over shell script
Install dependancies
apt install git gcc g++ ragel make ninja-build gyp mercurial nasm autotools-dev autoconf automake libgmp-dev libmpfr-dev libmpc-dev
Update my PATH to poin to Meson 0.44.0, ninja 1.8.2 et cmake (Optional because my Ubuntu is 14.10)
export PATH=/opt/ninja/1.8.2/bin/:/opt/meson/0.44.0/bin/:${PATH}
export PYTHONPATH=/opt/meson/0.44.0/lib/python3.4/site-packages/:$PYTHONPATH
export PATH=/opt/cmake/3.9.3/bin/:$PATH
