Kind Regards, Alin. ________________________________________ From: Gurucharan Shetty [shet...@nicira.com] Sent: Tuesday, December 03, 2013 1:05 AM To: Alin Serdean Cc: Ben Pfaff; Alessandro Pilotti; dev@openvswitch.org Subject: Re: [ovs-dev] Autoconf limits on Windows I sent in a couple of patches that I use on top of the cccl that we have on the repo. I haven't yet officially sent it for review as there may be other nicer options that I am missing. But since you are working on it, I thought, you should know. If you want to use the visual studio integrated debugger, then it needs the PDB file. One of the patches here creates the pdb file: http://openvswitch.org/pipermail/dev/2013-December/034477.html On Mon, Dec 2, 2013 at 2:46 PM, Gurucharan Shetty <shet...@nicira.com> wrote: > On Mon, Dec 2, 2013 at 2:38 PM, Alin Serdean > <aserd...@cloudbasesolutions.com> wrote: >> Hey, >> >> Sorry to barge in again but another problem that we are facing while trying >> to use the autoconf/msys solution is the following: >> >> make all-recursive >> make[1]: Entering directory `/home/aserdean/2_12_2013/openvswitch' >> Making all in datapath >> make[2]: Entering directory `/home/aserdean/2_12_2013/openvswitch/datapath' >> make[3]: Entering directory `/home/aserdean/2_12_2013/openvswitch/datapath' >> make[3]: Nothing to be done for `all-am'. >> make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/aserdean/2_12_2013/openvswitch/datapath' >> make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/aserdean/2_12_2013/openvswitch/datapath' >> make[2]: Entering directory `/home/aserdean/2_12_2013/openvswitch' >> source='lib/aes128.c' object='lib/aes128.obj' libtool=no \ >> DEPDIR=.deps depmode=none /bin/sh ./build-aux/depcomp \ >> ./build-aux/cccl -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I ./windows -I ./windows/thirdpa >> rty/pthreads/include -I ./include -I ./lib -I ./lib -Wstrict-prototypes >> -Wall >> -Wextra -Wno-sign-compare -Wpointer-arith -Wdeclaration-after-statement >> -Wformat >> -security -Wno-format-zero-length -Wswitch-enum -Wunused-parameter >> -Wstrict-alia >> sing -Wbad-function-cast -Wcast-align -Wstrict-prototypes >> -Wold-style-definition >> -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-field-initializers -Wthread-safety -g -c -o >> lib >> /aes128.obj `echo 'lib/aes128.c'` >> cl -nologo -EHsc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I ./windows -I >> ./windows/thirdparty/pthrea >> ds/include -I ./include -I ./lib -I ./lib -Zi -c -Folib/aes128.obj >> lib/aes128.c >> aes128.c >> rm -f lib/libopenvswitch.a >> ar cru lib/libopenvswitch.a lib/aes128.obj lib/backtrace.obj lib/bfd.obj >> lib/bit >> map.obj lib/bond.obj lib/bundle.obj lib/byteq.obj lib/cfm.obj >> lib/classifier.obj >> lib/command-line.obj lib/coverage.obj lib/crc32c.obj lib/csum.obj >> lib/daemon.ob >> j lib/dummy.obj lib/dpif-netdev.obj lib/dpif.obj lib/heap.obj >> lib/dynamic-string >> .obj lib/entropy.obj lib/fatal-signal.obj lib/flow.obj lib/guarded-list.obj >> lib/ >> hash.obj lib/hindex.obj lib/hmap.obj lib/hmapx.obj lib/jhash.obj >> lib/json.obj li >> b/jsonrpc.obj lib/lacp.obj lib/latch.obj lib/learn.obj >> lib/learning-switch.obj l >> ib/list.obj lib/lockfile.obj lib/mac-learning.obj lib/match.obj >> lib/memory.obj l >> ib/meta-flow.obj lib/multipath.obj lib/netdev-dummy.obj lib/netdev-vport.obj >> lib >> /netdev.obj lib/netlink.obj lib/nx-match.obj lib/odp-execute.obj >> lib/odp-util.ob >> j lib/ofp-actions.obj lib/ofp-errors.obj lib/ofp-msgs.obj lib/ofp-parse.obj >> lib/ >> ofp-print.obj lib/ofp-util.obj lib/ofp-version-opt.obj lib/ofpbuf.obj >> lib/ovs-at >> omic-gcc4+.obj lib/ovs-atomic-pthreads.obj lib/ovs-thread.obj >> lib/ovsdb-data.obj >> lib/ovsdb-error.obj lib/ovsdb-idl.obj lib/ovsdb-parser.obj >> lib/ovsdb-types.obj >> lib/packets.obj lib/pcap-file.obj lib/poll-loop.obj lib/process.obj >> lib/random.o >> bj lib/rconn.obj lib/reconnect.obj lib/seq.obj lib/sha1.obj lib/shash.obj >> lib/si >> map.obj lib/signals.obj lib/smap.obj lib/socket-util.obj lib/sort.obj >> lib/sset.o >> bj lib/stp.obj lib/stream-fd.obj lib/stream-tcp.obj lib/stream-unix.obj >> lib/stre >> am.obj lib/string.obj lib/svec.obj lib/table.obj lib/tag.obj lib/timer.obj >> lib/t >> imeval.obj lib/token-bucket.obj lib/unicode.obj lib/unixctl.obj lib/util.obj >> lib >> /uuid.obj lib/vconn-stream.obj lib/vconn.obj lib/vlan-bitmap.obj >> lib/vlandev.obj >> lib/vlog.obj lib/vswitch-idl.obj lib/vtep-idl.obj lib/async-append-null.obj >> lib/stream-nossl.obj lib/dirs.obj >> ranlib lib/libopenvswitch.a >> rm -f lib/libsflow.a >> ar cru lib/libsflow.a lib/lib_libsflow_a-sflow_agent.obj >> lib/lib_libsflow_a-sflo >> w_sampler.obj lib/lib_libsflow_a-sflow_poller.obj >> lib/lib_libsflow_a-sflow_recei >> ver.obj >> ranlib lib/libsflow.a >> >> CCCL is not using the Visual Sutdio compiler to link togheter a windows >> static library(.lib) it is using the GNU one and generating a Unix >> specific(*.a).
