libass cross-compiling

[active1]

hi, how can i cross compile libass for windows on ubuntu ?

[Bachstelze]

You can compile with mingw, but you will also need to compile all the dependencies (since you can't use the Linux versions).

thanx for your reply
yeah i know how can i do it on windows with mingw, i compiled all dependencies but when i tried to build libass.dll i failed :S
i succeeded in "./configure, make, make install" it
and the libass.a, libass.la were created in my lib folder, but libass.dll didn't created

so i wanted to try cross compiling it from ubuntu, and i installed mingw on ubuntu
but i failed with libass again :s
i don't know how to go with the cross compiling mode on it

can you give me some advices ?

[Bachstelze]

To compile with mingw on Ubuntu (using GNU hello as an example, since it doesn't require any dependencies):


firas@itsuki software % apt-get source hello
(...)
firas@itsuki software % cd hello-2.7
firas@itsuki hello-2.7 % ./configure --build=i586-mingw32msvc --host=i586-mingw32msvc
(...)
firas@itsuki hello-2.7 % make
(...)
firas@itsuki hello-2.7 % file src/hello.exe
src/hello.exe: PE32 executable (console) Intel 80386, for MS Windows
firas@itsuki hello-2.7 % wine src/hello.exe
Hello, world!


But just doing that with libass will fail because you don't have the dependencies,so you need to compile them first.

i had this problem:


labtop@ubuntu:~/Desktop/libass-0.10.0$ ./configure --build=i586-mingw32msvc --host=i586-mingw32msvc

If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.
See `config.log' for more details.


i searched but didn't find the solution

any idea ?

[Bachstelze]

See 'config.log' for more details.

This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

It was created by libass configure 0.10.0, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.65. Invocation command line was

[Bachstelze]

Oh, it tries to execute the .exe. I don't have this problem here because I have WINE installed, so executing the .exe works. Try with just --host (i.e. without --build).

ok, the configure went successfully, but i have a problem now with "make"

hmm i think that there is something must be edited in the sourcecode (i did something like that with pkg-config)

any idea ?

[active1]

i solved the last problem by compiling freetype2 and fribidi
it looks like i forgot compiling them and installed them from a .deb package, sorry

anyway, i think that i compiled libass successfully now:

make

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Libraries have been installed in:
/usr/local/lib

If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR'
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
- add LIBDIR to the `PATH' environment variable
during execution
- add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable
during linking
- use the `-LLIBDIR' linker flag
- have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf'

See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.

but i can't find the .dll
i don't think that i have a problem now, do i ?

[Bachstelze]

Like I said, you have to take care of the dependencies!


***_cache.c:23:22: error: ft2build.h: No such file or directory

ft2build.h is part of FreeType, you must compile a mingw version of libfreetype, and install it.

[Bachstelze]

Meh, I got it to build but it still only builds a .a, not the .dll. Then I don't know, ask the mingw guys.

ok, thank you "so much!" Bachstelze :)
