building VLC on windows

Postby yogeshsarda » 11 Jan 2006 09:27

I am using cygwin to build the VLC player.

I am follwing the stpes form http://developers.videolan.org/vlc/vlc/INSTALL.win32

I have downloaded compiled libraries and used cygwin to unzip it into /usr/win32 diretory.

Next step is to configure the build. I did not understand the document on how to do it. But this is what I did, I created two files bootstrap and configure with the gievn text. But running configure fails.

Please guide me on how to configure the build and complete the build process.


I am adding new modules to VLC and then build VLC with my modules. I still don't understand how to build VLC with the new code. Do I need to compile some libraries?

I would really appreciate answers, suggestions, comments.
