Code::Blocks Mingw32 Compiler doesn't compile file

ShadowKyogre · 2009-01-19 19:10:11

When I tried to compile one of my projects, it gave me this:

Compiling: /home/shadowkyogre/C++ Stuff/If/If.cpp
/bin/sh: i486-mingw32-cpp   -I/usr/i486-mingw32/include  -c "/home/shadowkyogre/C++ Stuff/If/If.cpp" -o "/home/shadowkyogre/C++ Stuff/If/If.o": No such file or directory
Process terminated with status 127 (0 minutes, 0 seconds)

Problem is that there IS an If.o and it still does not see it.

When I run i486-mingw32-cpp from the command line, it shows the source code of the file, but that's about it.

With the -c option, GNU GCC works fine while MingW32 does not. W/o the -c option, MingW32 gets the above error, while GNU GCC fails to complete the compile.

Are you just trying to compile "If.cpp" into an object file?

If so, you don't need the -o option.

i486-mingw32-cpp -I/usr/i486-mingw32/include  -c "/home/shadowkyogre/C++ Stuff/If/If.cpp"

Should make "If.o" for you.

I'm not sure how familiar you are with GCC, so forgive me if this next part insults your intelligence.

If "If.cpp" is the only source file, then do:

i486-mingw32-cpp -I/usr/i486-mingw32/include  -c "/home/shadowkyogre/C++ Stuff/If/If.cpp"
i486-mingw32-cpp -I/usr/i486-mingw32/include  -o "/home/shadowkyogre/C++ Stuff/If/If" "/home/shadowkyogre/C++ Stuff/If/If.o"

To produce the executable "If.exe" in that directory.

Personally I'd do it all from the directory the source is in. I also don't know what the hell "i486-mingw32-cpp" is (though it is on my system o.O), so I'd do:

i486-mingw32-g++ -I/usr/i486-mingw32/include  -c If.cpp
i486-mingw32-g++ -I/usr/i486-mingw32/include  -o If If.o

Oh. I apparently didn't see the g++. Now it compiles (yays!). Now I'm wondering something...when I compile something with the GNU compiler, I just want it to use Konsole. However, when I build the program for windows, I want it to do the program in Konsole by doing "wine If.exe". How do I do that?

Killa B · 2009-01-21 02:29:25

You can't do it in Konsole, as far as I know (or any decent terminal for that matter).

You can use "wineconsole cmd", though, which will give you (a less functional version of) the Windows Command Prompt

ShadowKyogre · 2009-01-21 02:45:22

I actually did do that in Konsole and it worked (in the folder, "wine If.exe"), which is why I'm asking. Is there a way to set a different console to user for each compiler?

Also, when compiling a Qt4 app for Windows, this error pops up:

/usr/include/QtGui/qwindowdefs.h|135|error: QtGui/qwindowdefs_win.h: No such file or directory|

I see qwindowdefs.h...but not qwindowdefs_win.h.

It is using your system (i.e. Linux) qt installation. For cross-compiling you need a second installation in /usr/i486-mingw32/, that is you have to compile and install qt with/for mingw.

In other words, I have to make a Qt packet that's for cross-compiling.
