Hi All Can anyone provide me with a step-by-step instruction to build newlib under window10 cygwin32 or cygwin64? Such as tool chain and environment settings. I googled and could not find it.
I followed the instruction in here: https://cygwin.com/faq/faq.html#faq.programming.building-cygwin section 6.21 I fire up a cygwin shell and I try to build it but got a lot of errors. Under the folder `/c/cygwin/home/src' there is a folder 'newlib' where I run git to get the source of newlib Those are the command I used: $git clone git://sourceware.org/git/newlib-cygwin.git newlib $ gcc --version gcc (GCC) 7.3.0 $ gcc --version gcc (GCC) 7.3.0 $ autoconf --version autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.69 $mkdir build $cd build $../newlib/configure --prefix=/home/src/install -v .... ---lots of messages print out from configure script. No error. .... $ make make[1]: Entering directory `/c/cygwin/home/src/build' mkdir -p -- ./etc Configuring in ./etc configure: creating cache ./config.cache checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c /usr/bin/sed: -e expression #1, char 1: unknown command: `C' configure: updating cache ./config.cache configure: creating ./config.status /usr/bin/sed: -e expression #1, char 138: unterminated `s' command config.status: creating Makefile /usr/bin/sed: -e expression #1, char 1: unknown command: `C' make[2]: Entering directory `/c/cygwin/home/src/build/etc' make[2]: *** No rule to make target `@MAINT@', needed by `../../newlib/etc/configure'.
