codelite Unable to build codelite on windows

Hello, I'm trying to build codelite from sources on windows 10 64bits, following the instructions in documentation. The command cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -G"MinGW Makefiles" -DWXWIN=$HOME/root" gives a lot of warnings include() given empty file name (ignored) and several errors such as CMake Error at codelite_make/CMakeLists.txt:5 (include): include called with wrong number of arguments. include() only takes one file.. I'm a beginner in using CMake so I don't really know if this is a bug or if I made something wrong during the process.

Command output:

cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -G"MinGW Makefiles" -DWXWIN=$HOME/root

There is now a github action https://github.com/eranif/codelite/blob/master/.github/workflows/msys2.yml which follows these instructions (and does work).

WXWIN is set to C:/msys64/home/Mélodie/root

Can you try path without non-ascii characters (no accents). I suspect that wxWidgets is not found because of that :-/ leading to errors you encounter.

I am still unable to build Codelite from sources on Windows 10 22h2 19045.4717 see build output below. Any suggestions, Noel Diviney.

This looks like the root cause:

could not open configuration file: C:/msys64/home/esdev/root/lib/clang_x64_dll/mswu/build.cfg

Did you build wxWidgets as described here: https://docs.codelite.org/build/build_wx_widgets/#windows ?

Jul 25 '24 05:07 eranif

Also, when in doubt, consult with the MSYS2 workflow (thanks to @Jarod42 who added this 👍🏽 )

https://github.com/eranif/codelite/blob/master/.github/workflows/msys2.yml

Jul 25 '24 06:07 eranif

Hello Eran and Jarrod Impressed with the prompt response.

Yes I have been trying to debug this myself. the wxWidgets build log is attached below wxWidgets-Bulld-Log.txt the wx-config-msys2 build log is attached below wx-config-msys2-build-log.txt the codelite build log is attached below

Everything work fine on Linux Best regards Noel

Jul 25 '24 07:07 noeldiviney

Oops forgot codelite codelite-build-release-log.txt Noel

Jul 25 '24 07:07 noeldiviney

could not open configuration file: C:/msys64/home/esdev/root/lib/clang_x64_dll/mswu/build.cfg

C:/msys64/home/esdev/root/lib/clang_x64_dll/mswu/build.cfg seems to not exist, is there a similar file under root/lib?

I don't see from log

mingw32-make install

Which might explain that

-- wxWidgets_USE_FILE is set to: .. CMake Error at codelite_make/CMakeLists.txt:5 (include):

wxWidgets_USE_FILE should not be empty, then the error is from include($(wxWidgets_USE_FILE)). That variable should be set from previous build.cfg. So same issue that above.

Jul 25 '24 12:07 Jarod42

wxWidgets_USE_FILE is empty because wx-config failed

This whole error boils down to wxWidgets not build properly.

Could you share how did you build wxWidgets? (I am mainly interested with the CMake execution line)

Jul 26 '24 06:07 eranif

Hi The problem is idue to the Build instructions for bulding wxWidgets are missing things see "https://docs.codelite.org/build/build_wx_widgets/#windows" git clone https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets cd wxWidgets git submodule update --ini

mkdir build-release
cd build-release
cmake .. -G"MinGW Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release                                             \
                     -DwxBUILD_DEBUG_LEVEL=0                                                                            \
                     -DwxBUILD_MONOLITHIC=1 -DwxBUILD_SAMPLES=SOME -DwxUSE_STL=1    \
                     -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/root
mingw32-make -j$(nproc)

As you can see the "mingw32-make install" is missing

Also see "https://docs.codelite.org/build/build_from_sources/" pacman -S mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-zlib
mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-libssh
mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-hunspel l
mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-openssl
mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-sqlite3
flex As you can see here that " bison " is missing

I am currently creating a new install ofPro Version=22H2, OS build=19045.4717. and do a complete install of MSYS2. wxWidgets, wx-config-msys2 and Codelite. This will take a couple of hours or so to do and send.

Regards Noel

Jul 26 '24 08:07 noeldiviney

I have updated the docs & deployed them to the website:

https://docs.codelite.org/build/build_wx_widgets/#windows

(You might need to refresh the page cache)

Jul 26 '24 08:07 eranif

Ok I will use the udated docs. Many thanks.. Noel.

Jul 26 '24 11:07 noeldiviney

Progress so far

wxWidges buillt and installed see attached log Build-Install-wxWidgets-log.txt

wx-config.exe build log codelite-build-log.txt

Codelite.exe build log build-wx-config.exe-log.txt

mingw32-make is not terminating last 3 lines as follows: /usr/bin/sh: line 1: /clang64/bin/clang: Bad address mingw32-make[3]: *** [mk_mingw.mak:93: parsers/awk.o] Error 126 mingw32-make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

Will do more testing in the morning

Cheers Noel

Jul 26 '24 14:07 noeldiviney

Maybe we should add an option to disable ctagsd and skip this ...

Jul 26 '24 16:07 eranif

What is involved in doing the disable so tat I can try it out?

How is the "https://downloads.codelite.org/downloads.php?windows_weekly_64" built?

Any idea why Codelite is not included in Msys2 packages anymore?

Thanks Noen

Jul 26 '24 23:07 noeldiviney

This a build without the install for codelite and is less confusing codelite-build-only-log.txt

Noel

Jul 27 '24 03:07 noeldiviney

How is the "https://downloads.codelite.org/downloads.php?windows_weekly_64" built?

I am building it, using the same instructions that we have on the website, I am not sure why its not working for you...

Any idea why Codelite is not included in Msys2 packages anymore?

My guess? they don't like the way I package CodeLite for Windows :) which is more native rather than MSYS2 way (which is the POSIX way)

Jul 27 '24 06:07 eranif

I am trying to reproduce the issue you are having, but I am unable to do it... Running git clean -xfd inside the ctags folder and rebuilding CodeLite does not reproduce this for me

From reading the log file you uploaded, this makefile rule seems to cause the error:

copy_gnulib_heads:
        cp win32/config_mingw.h config.h
        cp win32/gnulib_h/langinfo.h win32/gnulib_h/locale.h win32/gnulib_h/unistd.h win32/gnulib_h/fnmatch.h win32/gnulib_h/string.h win32/gnulib_h/wchar.h gnulib

Which produces this error on your machine:

cp: cannot create regular file 'gnulib/string.h': Permission denied

Can you check the write permissions for that folder? or maybe try running (from the root folder of CodeLite sources):

cd ctags && git clean -xfd

You can also try and run the command manually and maybe you will get something more useful in the error message:

cd ctags
cp win32/gnulib_h/langinfo.h win32/gnulib_h/locale.h win32/gnulib_h/unistd.h win32/gnulib_h/fnmatch.h win32/gnulib_h/string.h win32/gnulib_h/wchar.h gnulib

Jul 27 '24 06:07 eranif

I will do some more debugging here. But I have to I have to learn as I go. Are you running on Windows 10 Pro 22H2? What Msys2 environment clang64.exe, mingw64.exe or ucrt64.exe?

Noel

Jul 27 '24 07:07 noeldiviney

Hi I moved the testing to Drive X:\ and got rid of the "permission denied". ctags is still a problem though. codelite-build-no-permission-denied-log.txt Noel

Jul 27 '24 08:07 noeldiviney

The problem you faced ("permission denied") was due to bad ctags makefile which was not built for multiple jobs ("-jN"). I fixed it by replacing the custom built makefile ("mk_mingw.mak") with proper CMakeLists.txt file

Try with latest master (make sure to update the submodules :git submodule update --init)

Jul 27 '24 09:07 eranif

Hi Eran. I can now build Codelite successfully!!!!! Thank very much for the help doing this. It has made my day. I can now continue with the development of my Embedded Systems Development Environment in which Codelite is playing an important part. Successfull-Codelide-Build-lov.txt I will keep you posted on progress.

Cheers Noel
