Fails to compile with mingw...

[petasis]

Hi all,

I cannot compile rl_json with mingw under Fedora. There is no file named "endian.h".

dnf whatprovides */endian.h |grep mingw
mingw32-boost-1.78.0-4.fc38.noarch : MinGW Windows Boost C++ library for the win32 target
Filename    : /usr/i686-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/include/boost/predef/other/endian.h
mingw64-boost-1.78.0-4.fc38.noarch : MinGW Windows Boost C++ library for the win64 target
Filename    : /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/include/boost/predef/other/endian.h

I'm a little confused - Fedora is a Linux environment, are you trying to cross-compile for Windows from Fedora?

If you're trying to build for Fedora itself, then just the normal unix build process is what you want.

Yes, I am trying to compile for windows from fedora.

I'm afraid I've never attempted to cross compile parse_args for Windows and I expect it would be a rough road to get that to work.

I last did anything like that over 20 years ago and generally have nothing to do with Windows as a platform these days, so I really don't have the expertise to help fix this issue. I'd be happy to accept patches to support cross compiling it for Windows if you figure it out though.
