I am trying to learn Objective-C using Cygwin. First I wrote a hello world program in C and compiled it thus:
gcc -o inventry inventry.c and it worked perfectly. Then I renamed the source file inventory.m, and since every C program should be a valid Objective-C program, compiled it thus: gcc -o inventry inventry.m -lobjc and got the following error: gcc: error trying to exec 'cc1obj': execvp: No such file or directory I did a web search of that error message, and found that I needed to install gobjc. I could not find gobjc on the installer package from the mirror site from which I had originally installed cygwin, so I got it from a site called "ubuntu" and installed it. Now I get the following error: gcc: error trying to exec '/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/4.5.3/cc1obj': execv: Exec format error I did a web search of that error, and found something that said that cygwin was not installed properly and needs to be reinstalled. I assume that means that the version of gobjc that I installed from "ubuntu" was not compatible with my cygwin installation. So how do I get gobjc from the standard installer package? I don't see it listed in the list of packages to install? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
