libblendbench_plugin_la-blendbench.lo Error on Cygwin

[vinoa]

Hi all,

I update my win32 contrib package from contrib-20080215-win32-bin-gcc-4.2.1-sjlj-runtime-3.13-only to contrib-20080308-win32-bin-gcc-4.2.1-sjlj-runtime-3.13-only(and also I git up vlc) , and during compiling VLC on Cygwin, I got an error

blendbench.c:122: error: conflicting type for 'LoadImageA'
/usr/include/w32api/winuser.h:3808: error: previous declaration of 'LoadImageA'
../../include/vlc_fixups.h:114: warning: 'localtime_r' defined but not used
make[4]: *** [libblendbench_plugin_la-blendbench.lo] error 1
make[4]: Leaving directory '/home/admin/vlc/modules/video_filter'
make[3]: *** [all-modules] Error 1

make[2]: Leaving directory 'home/admin/vlc.modules'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

Does anyone know a solution for this problem?

[VLC_help]

One way might be to remove vlc/modules/video_filter/blendbench.c or edit it and replace all LoadImageA with LoadImageAAAA for example.

[VLC_help]

Update:
Replacing LoadImage with LoadImageAA in blendbench.c fixes that, but compiling stops to dynamicoverlay_commands.c which has multiple errors.

Code: Select all

[VladimirBelousov]

You need to do these steps:
1) replace all 'LoadImage' -> 'LoadImage1' in "modules\video_filter\blendbench.c"
2) the first line of "modules/video_filter/dynamicoverlay/Modules.am" must be
'if !HAVE_WIN32'
and the last
'endif'
Just add these two lines.

Of course, after that bootstrap, reconfigure, make and enjoy!

Should be solved properly in 698d753f31a1aa0338a04d369c890163a690621b.

If there is still a problem, then please report on vlc-devel with complete build log.

Thanks for caring.

Thanks all for replying.

I tried to build vlc 0.9.0 again today (04/13/2008) on another computer to check and I got a different error (and I am still building vlc 0.9.0 on another laptop).

Creating library file: ./libs/libvlc-control.dll.a
creating libvlc-control.la
/usr/bin/sed: can't read vlc/src/libvlc.la: No such file or directory.
libtool: link: /src/libvlc.la' is not a valid libtool archive

make[3]: ***[libvlc-control.la] Error 1

I have libvlc.la file under vlc/src folder , but not sure about /usr/bin/sed ...
Do you think it could be related with cygwin libtool packages? I have libtool 1.5.

I Really appreciate all your help!!

[jpsaman]

This is a tools issue in cygwin, but j-b and trax have more experience with building under cygwin then I. They must be able to help.

Please forward your report to vlc-devel and you will get quicker attention from vlc developers then using the Forum.
