Compiling cygwin

Tue Mar 26 14:09:00 GMT 2002

I actually asked this same question 29 October 2001. If you use google 
to search the cygwin.com website (enter "compiling cygwin1.dll 
site:cygwin.com" into google's search term box), the first three 
messages are from the thread that answered this question for me. You'll 
even see my name on one of them- I can't wait to tell my folks that I'm 
 famous!!! I have included one of the messages that was sent just to 
me, and not to the list. Let us know if you have more questions.
HTH,

Then you need to creat a parrallel build directory:
bash$ cd /winsup
bash$ mkdir build
bash$ cd build
Now run the cygwin-build script (below).
#!/bin/bash
export src=/winsup/src
export inst=/winsup/build/inst
build=i686-pc-cygwin
target=i686-pc-cygwin
case 1ドル in
 conf*) ${src}/configure --build=${build} --target=${target} \
 --srcdir=${src} --prefix=/usr \
 --exec-prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --libdir=/usr/lib \
 --includedir=/nonexistent/include \
 --with-included-gettext 2>&1 | tee log.configure
 ;;
 build*) make CFLAGS=-O2 tooldir=/usr 2>&1 | tee log.make
 make info CFLAGS=-O2 tooldir=/usr 2>&1 | tee log.make-info
 ;;
 check*) make CFLAGS=-O2 tooldir=/usr check 2>&1 | tee log.check
 ;;
 clean*) make CFLAGS=-O2 tooldir=/usr clean 2>&1 | tee log.clean
 ;;

 rm -rf $inst/usr/etc
 rm -f $inst/usr/info/dir
