[Mono-dev] mono from git will not build on cygwin 32

Thu Sep 5 18:45:55 UTC 2013

Here is an idea. When someone can get Cygwin installed and mono built, they can Version it with Cygwin and mono versions and zip it. Someone could put up a website or open up space on an existing web site. The working Cygwin+mono zips could be uploaded to the site. Others of course would be able to download them. The only time it would take to install is the download and unzip and you will be up and debugging. It does not even require mono or xamarin to do it. I would build one for you but if you are following we are still waiting for at least another fix to be able to complete the build on Cygwin. The site could also contain developer advice and tutorials on doing it yourself. Just a page on someones corporate or personal site would do. One that could come up in a google search.

I'm in complete agreement. If I didn't need the bug fix for a project I'd have given up by now.

There are a very large number of windows developers who are experienced writing c# and unit tests. If they all fixed just 1 bug that would be a great help, right?

All it needs is a VS2010 project (which can be upgraded to VS2012 by the developer) and a pre built runtime. We also need a directory map; put your classes here, put your tests here.

If I had the above starting point I could fix two serialisation bugs that are stopping me, in a matter of a few hours.

As a thought, it might be a good idea to have a simplified system for being able to do development on things like class libraries where people can get up and running within 2-3 minutes. As of now it seems getting an environment setup is a major impediment that prevents a lot of people from contributing.

Cheers,

Greg

I guess there are a few people having issues. I have lost track of who is who. I know once you get past these issues that some fixes have gone in to fix some build breaks that occur further along. There is still one outstanding. Just trying to help though, Cygwin gave me a lot of grief in the beginning. Good luck.

Am I Londondev?

I haven't had a chance to look for a make.bat or similar. Will take another look over the weekend.

I think think that londendev is the one with the make which does not seem to do anything. I was helping him diagnose the issue along the line of what your posting. It seems link it could be a batch file that does nothing. He was posting back but it doesn't seem to show up in this thread.

Mark, did you check your path? seems like you something else called make or make.bat in your path before the cygwin installed make and that thing is breaking your cygwin environment...

gee, sorry. that should be prefix not profile

I rushed because I had to go somewhere and got sloppy. Let me know if you still have issues.

Profile? You want `--prefix'.
