Hi, every one:
I try to compile VCL using this link:
https://wiki.videolan.org/Win32Compile/ ... _toolchain and, I choose Obtaining the cross-compilation toolchain mode.
Unfortunately, after I run Manually built (slow) 's step "$ ../bootstrap --host=HOST-TRIPLET"
It prompts me:

Code: Select all

/bin/sh: 1: HOST-TRIPLE-gcc: not found
/bin/sh: 1: HOST-TRIPLE-gcc: not found
../../contrib/src/protobuf/rules.mak:19: *** /usr/bin/protoc version 3.0.0 doesn't match the protobuf 3.1.0 we're building.  Stop.

please help, thanks.

Did you use HOST-TRIPLET literally or you replaced it with a proper value ?

I tried literally also below:

Code: Select all

root@ubuntuaaa:/home/biubiu/vlc/contrib/win32# echo $HOSTNAME
ubuntuaaa
root@ubuntuaaa:/home/biubiu/vlc/contrib/win32# ../bootstrap --host=ubuntuaaa
Guessing build system... x86_64-linux-gnu
Packages licensing...    GPL version 3
Creating configuration file... config.mak
Bootstrap completed.
ubuntuaaa: invalid machine specification
/bin/sh: 1: ubuntuaaa-gcc: not found
/bin/sh: 1: ubuntuaaa-gcc: not found
../../contrib/src/protobuf/rules.mak:19: *** /usr/bin/protoc version 3.0.0 doesn't match the protobuf 3.1.0 we're building.  Stop.

Thank you for your help why it doesn't work?

The answer to the question is very explicitly in the wiki page.

Thank you, Rémi.
Do you mean "To compile the VLC 3.0.x development branch, DO NOT USE the prebuilt libraries. "?
Is that means I can skip "Prepare 3rd party libraries " step and, directly into "Building VLC" step?

Sorry Rémi, please ignore my previous post. The new problem is follows:

Code: Select all

Re-read the wiki carefully.

Please make sure that you replace the keywords HOST-TRIPLET with either i686-w64-mingw32 or x86_64-w64-mingw32 adapted to your target Windows version (32-bit or 64-bit, respectively)

To clean up the protoc error (not on the wiki) you'll need to grab an older/newer copy of protoc (depending on your installed version). Precompiled binaries can be found at https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/releases
