Hi CBW,
I see that you are using plain GCC to compile.
The easiest way of doing development on windows is to use the GNUstep
Make package instead
(
http://www.gnustep.org/resources/documentation/Developer/Make/Manual/make.html).
Basically (you might already done some of these steps, just added for
completeness)
1. Ensure that make, base, bui and back are installed by using the
installers from here:
http://www.gnustep.org/experience/Windows.html2. Create a GNUMakefile in the directory where your main.m lives
according to the make documentation, i.e.
#
# An example GNUmakefile
#
# Include the common variables defined by the Makefile Package
include $(GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES)/common.make
# Build a simple Objective-C program
TOOL_NAME = prog1
# The Objective-C files to compile
prog1_OBJC_FILES = prog1.m
-include GNUmakefile.preamble
# Include in the rules for making GNUstep command-line programs
include $(GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES)/tool.make
-include GNUmakefile.postamble
3. Ensure that GNUstep.sh is sources by typing 'env | grep GNU'
You should see a lot of "GNUSTEP_XXXX_XXX" variable defined.
If they are not defined (which they really should be with after using
the windows installer) - you need to source the GNUstep.sh file like
this:
. /usr/GNUstep/System/Library/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh
4. Type 'make' and see that it starts building.
Then to "install" it, type 'make install' followed by 'make clean'
5. If you run into any issues, type "make message=yes" and capture
output, that makes it easier to troubleshoot.
Best regards,
Tim
