Hi there, i tried to compile it (npm install actually) on my raspberry pi (Archlinux) and failed. Actually it just fails to finish due to a lack of resources (I even was not able to log in via ssh another time). I don't know how i could investigate this issue any further - so I just let you know. If you have an idea or another test i can run - just let me know. ~fw update: an `make' call in 'node_modules/lwip/build' passes. It takes a while, but it works. So I can only reproduce it with 'npm install'.

[EyalAr]

@efwe currently I don't have access to a Raspberry Pi machine, but it can actually be a good use case for this module, so I'll keep it in mind.

In the meantime, can you provide more information please?

• You said it fails with npm install, but a manual build works. Only with this module? can you check if other native modules also exhibit this problem on your machine?
• Can you provide the output for the failed npm install, and npm-debug.log?
• What versions of node and npm are you using?
• Which C++ compiler do you have installed and what version?
• How much RAM do you have on your machine?

Thanks, Eyal.

Fails on SunOS 5.11 (Joyent SmartOS which is really SunOS which is really Solaris which is really eroding my sanity)…

@zachizi The problem is that your compiler disables C++ exceptions by default. This can probably be fixed with a compiler flag to enable exceptions.

I don't have access to Solaris, so I can't currently verify, but try adding the following to binding.gyp (in the directory of the module):

['OS=="solaris"', {
    'cflags!': ['-fno-exceptions'],
    'cflags_cc!': ['-fno-exceptions'],
}],

Add it to each of the 3 'conditions' arrays (line 79, 172 and 215)

Then run node-gyp rebuild in the directory of the module.

Let me know if it works. Thanks.

[ghost]

That worked, thanks! Had a feeling it had something to do with the flags but I'm pretty lost when it comes to compiler issues. Forked & submitted PR w/ the changes.

[EyalAr]

@zachizi Awesome, thanks for the PR! Merged, and will be included in v0.0.5.

Its failing on my windows 8.1 I didnt find any binding.gyp file. Any clue?

@HugoCornu

gyp ERR! stack Error: Can't find Python executable "python", you can set the PYTHON env variable.

Seems like you need to add python to your PATH, and / or install Python.

See here and here for some pointers.

Hi, thx so much for your reactivity and for Lwip !

v0.0.6 successfully tested with Node 0.10 and 0.11 on the following platforms:

• OS X 10.10.1 (clang-600.0.56)
• Ubuntu 14.04 (gcc 4.8.2)
• Windows 7 (Visual Studio 2013 Express)

[cbratschi]

Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate Update 4 fails on Windows 8.1:

jpeg_decoder.cpp ...\node_modules\lwip\src\lib\gif\gif_lib.h(22): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'stdbool.h': No such file or directory [...\node_modules\lwip\build\lwip_decoder.vcxproj]

This is a C99 specific error. stdbool.h should be supported by VS 2013. Anyone else getting this error?

[frzsombor]

I'm getting this error too, and can't find any solution Windows 7 x64, VS 2013 Express Update 4 Please check the images below: image1 image2 image3

Edit: I've found this stackoverflow answer, but it hasn't solved the problem for me.

[FreeSlave]

Same problem on Windows 8.1, Visual Studio 2013 Professional

[ddaeschler]

Just FYI for anyone having build issues on windows.

VS2012 is also missing stdbool.h, so I was able to get a build to complete under by making a small change to src/lib/gif/gif_lib.h.

Remove #include stdbool.h

replace it with:

#ifndef __cplusplus typedef int bool; #define true 1 #define false 0 #endif

I'm curious if this is still an issue with VS2015.

[cbratschi]

@ddaeschler at least it is still in VS 2013. Didn't try VS 2015 RC yet.

[toolness]

It seems odd that VS 2013 won't compile, since the dependency on C99/bool was documented in the description for #77 and @EyalAr even mentioned that 0.0.6 (which has the same dependencies on stdbool.h) compiled on VS 2013. Microsoft's own C99 library support in Visual Studio 2013 blog post seems to corroborate this.

In any case, as a workaround--I'm still on VS 2010 and want it to be easy for others to easily build my project--I've just downgrated to lwip 0.5, as it has what I need and builds fine. That said, I'm looking forward to having pre-built binaries available for this excellent library!

@EyalAr would it be possible to get a check on Ubuntu 12.04 with gcc 4.8 and Node 5.x? This won't install there for us even after upgrading from gcc 4.6 to 4.8.1. It's the same thing on Debian 8. Perhaps it could be a thing with latest versions of V8? I've attached the stack trace for the error. It'd be great to be able to use this library. Thank you!
