How to compile on Windows using Cygwin

[VLC_help]

The "Win32 contrib package" at present includes the linux and Windows equivalents of uic, moc and roc executables which are required for building this interface.
The linuxs executables have to be deleted from the contrib folder:

Thanks for the help but I am still stuck with the following:

Downgrade you win32api

[itbe]

To what version - You recomended to take 8011...

[VLC_help]

viewtopic.php?f=14&t=50360&p=164758&hil ... pi#p164219

[itbe]

Is there a contrib version that will match without additional tricks? how can I compile without qt4?

[VLC_help]

Just leave --enable-qt4 out, if you don't need QT4 support. Contribs only offer win32 folder, so they don't fix cygwin environment related problems (like Winapi thingy).

[itbe]

I didnt use --enable-qt4, I used the config as it is in the http://wiki.videolan.org/Win32CompileCygwinNew so I dont understand why I got qt4 errors?

Can you please add the win32api explanation to the wiki.

[VLC_help]

At least skins2 uses QT4 preferences dialog, so maybe disabling skins2 helps.

--disable-skins

There is already link in Wiki that points to the forum thread that helps with winapi issues.
http://wiki.videolan.org/Win32CompileCy ... QT4_issues

[itbe]

Is this the expected make resolt?

[VLC_help]

Seems correct.

[itbe]

Where can I find explanation for each parameter in the config file?

[VLC_help]

You mean switches used in configure-vlc.sh?

[itbe]

Yes, switches in configure-vlc.sh

[VLC_help]

http://www.jbkempf.com/blog/post/2007/1 ... C-building
jb has listed most of them (I don't know if that is complete list).

[aik]

I am a newbie so sorry if I am asking very stupid question
I'm trying compiling the VLC player using this howto: http://wiki.videolan.org/Win32CompileCygwinNew
However the process fails in the very beginning with about 8000 errors like you can see below. If to ignore all these errors and continue, then the configure script fails with "config.status: error: cannot find input file: Makefile.in".

Both Cygwin and VLC have been updated 3 hours prior this post. WinXPsp2. Google did not help.

Why does it happen? Does anybody know a simple answer, or I have to google over again? Thanks in advance!

[VLC_help]

You tried to do git build?

[aik]

I would If I knew what you mean. I followed directions from the link... The only thing I did with git was "git clone git://git.videolan.org/vlc.git" what is actually checking source tree out, right?

[VLC_help]

So it is a git build. I will try it today and paste my findings soon.

[VLC_help]

I didn't get any errors. When I ./bootstrap it goes without any issues.

[aik]

I recorded all my steps. It will be very appreciated if you do the same, then I'll compare, find the difference and tell everybody what the problem was in. Thanks a lot!
