Hello, I'm trying to compile on Windows Vista (usually I compile without pb on a Debian testing) and had error messages : checking the Perl version... checked (perl 5) checking for required Perl modules... all modules found checking for a friendly Microsoft C/C++ compiler installation path... Can't find MS Visual Studio / VC++ at ./oowintool line 188. cygpath: can't convert empty path cygpath: can't convert empty path
checking for mspdb80.dll... no checking for mspdb100.dll... no checking the Microsoft C/C++ Compiler... checking for cl.exe... no cygpath: can't convert empty path cygpath: can't convert empty path configure: error: Microsoft C/C++ Compiler not found. Use --with-cl-home or set path to cl.exe. Error running configure at ./autogen.sh line 157. I took a look at oowintool, the pb is cygwin doesn't map all the /proc/registry. For example, there's nothing there : /proc/registry/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/VCExpress And there's nothing cause permissions aren't ok : ls -l /proc/registry/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/ d--------- 1 400 401 0 Nov 19 18:53 VBExpress d--------- 1 400 401 0 Nov 19 18:53 VCExpress d--------- 1 400 401 0 Nov 19 18:53 VCSExpress But I can't succeed in adding +rx on these directories. When I look at authorizations on Windows registry, it's the same as Mediaplayer which appears like this on Cygwin : dr-x------ 3 SYSTEM SYSTEM 0 Sep 2 2009 MediaPlayer I've googled a little but found nothing which explains why the mapping isn't complete but found there was a tool regtool on Cygwin which can read (and write) directly the Windows registry. (it uses "\" for directory separator) So I thought it could be useful to change the reg functions of oowin : like reg_get_value($) Pb is regtool doesn't allow the search of the key and I'm not sure mixing regtool to get a key and Cygwin reg function would be a good option. The last thing : for those who can compile on Windows, how do you manage to make all these things work ? (I suppose/I hope you don't pass manually all the paths by autogen options) Any opinion welcome here :-) Julien. PS : I tried mingw but using openSuse packages on my Debian is definitely an option I don't want to. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Registry-keys-for-Windows-compilation-tp3521322p3521322.html Sent from the Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
