Hi, I am new on vlc development, I recently downloaded vlc 0.9.2 source code from videolan.org, and I tried to compile it by following the instruction from http://wiki.videolan.org/Win32CompileCygwinNew with cygwin on window xp home. Everything is fine until I stuck on error during building. the error look like following:

Try to comment out InterlockedExchangeAdd from either winbase.h or from qatomic_windows.h

I comment out InterlockedExchangeAdd from winbase.h....but the same error still there...any other way?......O.O''

I try looking for the answer on internet but with no luck........

winbase.h line 1663 still has the function as does qatomic_windows.h in line 393

I removed every duplicate functions in winbase.h, and then it come out with undeclared error....sorry to reply message that late....I got to work on weekend....O.O

Would it work other way around? (keep in winbase, remove from qt4)

I removed InterlockedDecrement from qatomic_windows.h and removed rest of duplicated functions from winbase, and then it came out with "error cannot find -lqjpeg", I check previous post and found a solution for this problem: use libqjpeg.a with new qt4(qt4-4.4.1-win32-bin.tar.bz2) contribution and merged with the existing bundle contribution. and then after a hour of running, I stuck into another error like following.......

what wrong with this source code?! I used official release from videolan

I don't know, but your install of cygwin seems not good.

I reinstalled cygwin three time last week....following the instruction from http://wiki.videolan.org/Win32CompileCygwinNew step by step......I don't think I have installation problem on cygwin....O.O by the way, thank you for your help anyway.....

I am clueless then...

/usr/win32/include/qt4/QtCore/qstring.h:831: undefined reference to `QBasicAtomi
cInt::deref()'

IMO that means your QT4 is effed up because both qstring and QBasicAtomicInt are QT stuff (so working QT headers shouldn't create errors like that).

I also have exact same problem as the OP. Is there a way around this issue?
I've tried using --disable-qt4 --disable-skins2 and it compiles fine. However, when I run the executable it runs under the command prompt (rc interface).

I did this before disable qt4 and skin2...it will compile and build but won't work because version 0.9.0 VLC include the Qt interface......

I found a solution for this problem...I added #ifndef __INTERLOCKED_DECLARED ... #endif around the block declarations Interlocked* functions at line 393 in qatomic_windows.h....the error is gone...and then I run into another error like following:

I thought this source code is mature...why I have to spend so much time to debug it....O.O???

I thought this source code is mature...why I have to spend so much time to debug it....O.O???

VLC isn't stable nor mature if you do git builds. Specially Win32 builds are problematic because most Win32 devs are used to live with Microsoft compilers and IDEs.

It is easier for us to help you, if you could always paste the line that makes compiler die.
so line 82 from dialogs/preferences.hpp

Tried with 0.9.3 and still having same problem.

Based on my research, it seems QT4 is not supported in the Cygwin... maybe this is why it's not working?

Building works. I just completed it.

http://wiki.videolan.org/Win32CompileCygwinNew following that with one additional step changes.
After you have extracted contribs (use contrib-20080811-win32-bin-gcc-4.2.1-sjlj-runtime-3.13-only.tar.bz2), download qt4-4.4.1-win32-bin.tar.bz2 and extract lib and include folders from there to /usr/win32 and overwrite all old or same files.

If you get undefined reference to `qt_plugin_instance_qjpeg()' error, then edit vlc/modules/gui/qt4/qt4.cpp and line 53 and comment out Q_IMPORT_PLUGIN(qjpeg)

Hi....I follow your way step by step...but it doesn't work....I use the latest release 0.9.3 and the qt4 package you mentioned above....but I still got following error

did any other people successfully compile this source code under window xp home edition with cygwin...
by the way, the contrib-20080811-win32-bin-gcc-4.2.1-sjlj-runtime-3.13-only.tar.bz2 mentions runtime-3.13 and gcc4.2.1, is that mean I can only use runtime 3.13? because cygwin setup.exe doesn't have the correspond version of mingw and gcc, it only have 3.14 and 3.15....

I downloaded qt4-4.4.1-win32-bin.tar.bz2 but I could not find the "source" folder in it. I patched "lib", "shared" and "include" folders of /usr/win32/ in cygwin (overwritten older files). I am still not able to compile VLC. I get same error.

I think the source folder mean "src" folder under C:\cygwin\usr\win32\include\qt4......

Sorry, I meant include (now fixed in previous post).

Could you check the checksum of your qatomic_windows.h?

I couldn't compile either. Also, do you mean qt-win-opensource-src-4.4.1.zip, not qt4-4.4.1-win32-bin.tar.bz2?

9124a08b966e37995c60aa92ba3f3128 *qatomic_windows.h

Also I tried your fixed method by extracting lib and include folders from QT package to the usr/win32/
Now I get a different error (actually alot of errors) that are not related to the 'Interlock' declaration.

If you want to look....
