Error compiling GLFW 3.3 source package

support
1

I’ve been trying to compile the GLFW 3.3 source package and I’m experiencing difficulties.
I’m running Windows 10 using CMake and mingw.

I get this error when I try to make the files created with CMake

   [ 14%] Building RC object examples/CMakeFiles/boing.dir/glfw.rc.obj
    gcc: error: src: No such file or directory
    gcc: warning: '-x c' after last input file has no effect

    mingw32-make: *** [Makefile:129: all] Error 2

I’m sorry if this is obvious but I’ve never used this software before and my google-fu has come up with nothing.

Do you have some other version of MinGW or MinGW-w64 installed that could be interfering?

I could configure the GLFW 3.3 source archive for MinGW-w64 x86_64-8.1.0-posix-seh-rt_v6-rev0 and build it with no issues from a console window with it first in PATH.

I did run into similar (but not identical) issues when CMake accidentally picked up the windres.exe from plain MinGW when I hadn’t taken care about the PATH.

It turns out that I do have different versions of MinGW floating around, However; when I remove the version I installed to make GLFW (x86_64-8.1.0-posix-seh-rt_v6-rev0) from the PATH the cmd doesn’t recognize “mingw32-make” as a command so I’m fairly confident I’m using the correct version…

Just to be sure I removed the other versions as well as gnuwin32 make and tried again but nothing changed.

I see. Not sure what is going wrong then. Try enabling verbose makefiles by enabling CMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE and post the output.

( In the CMake GUI it is under Advanced and on the command-line you can pass -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=1 )

I got it to work by changing the file locations.
My best guess is that somewhere along the line it didn’t like that the directory had a space in it

Sorry, yes, I meant the latter output. Thank you! I did some testing based on it and it seems that windres can handle spaces in paths but not ampersands. This applies to both MinGW and MinGW-w64 windres.
