Installing SystemC by MSYS error

[hubert0408]

Hi,

 

    There is some errors when I compile the library. I really cannot figure out what's they means.  Here is the errors during make.    

make[3]: Entering directory 'd:/SystemC/systemc-2.3.1/src/sysc/datatypes'
process_begin: CreateProcess(NULL, /bin/mkdir -p bit, ...) failed.
make (e=2):
Makefile:495: recipe for target 'bit/.dirstamp' failed
make[3]: *** [bit/.dirstamp] Error 2
make[3]: Leaving directory 'd:/SystemC/systemc-2.3.1/src/sysc/datatypes'
Makefile:572: recipe for target 'all-recursive' failed
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory 'd:/SystemC/systemc-2.3.1/src/sysc'
Makefile:422: recipe for target 'all-recursive' failed
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory 'd:/SystemC/systemc-2.3.1/src'
Makefile:434: recipe for target 'all-recursive' failed
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 

    Thank you in advance!

Looks like a problem with MSYS installation.  mingw-make works for me, so you can try without msys.

 

Personally I would advice to use Visual Studio on Windows, it is more stable than ported gnu tools.

Can elaborate more on your environment? What kind of msys? What kind of mingw, if any?

Hi there 🙂

Just a quick hint if anyone wants to build SystemC for Windows using MSYS2 - there seems to be issue while using .configure-based flow (linker complains about missing references in some coroutines' stuff) - for me using CMake allowed to build library.

Best regards!

Thanks @raku99 for reporting this issue. Could you please have a look to accellera-official/systemc#3 on GitHub to check whether it is the same issue? If yes, it would be nice if you would add any additional information, you may have on it. If not, please open a new issue and provide some more details about the exact platform and toolchain you are using as well as instructions how to reproduce your issue. MSYS2 provides nowadays already 6 environments with different toolchains, so we require that information to reproduce your issue.
