Install on Windows with gcc

[inddzen]

Hi all,

I mainly work using Code::Blocks so I tried to build TBB using gcc-mingw instead of Visual Studio.

I dowloaded the src pack, however during the make I'm getting the some errors in thread_monitor.h. (I've copy pasted bellow).

Just in case I installed the pthread library for win32, but still have the same errors.

Does anyone have an idea about the issue and how to fix it?

Thanks in advance!

Well, I just managed to resolve the problem by building from the stable release sourcetbb22_20090809oss_src.tgz instead of theCommercial Aligned Release "tbb22_009oss_src.tgz"

However, I'm not getting any library file, just the dlls. SoI create them using dlltool.

To test I picked up the "sub_string_finder".

I linked the libraries to my project and tried to run, but I got the errors listing bellow.

Obviously there's something wrong with the libraries, maybeoriginallyfrom the dlls, but what?

(Edited) If somebody has seen what I wrote here initially, I guessed there is an issue in our recent com-aligned package. A quick check, however, showed that it is not necessarily true, as I just successfully built TBB with minGW on my laptop. So it might be the problem of a particular version (or my luck to use a version without the problem). Here is what I have:
C:>gcc --version
gcc (4.3.3-tdm-1 mingw32) 4.3.3
My another concern is the specification of arch=ia64 in the command line to build TBB. What do you expect from it? And what is your environment in general?

As for the library files being absent: I believe that they are unnecessary, as the DLLs are created with --enable-auto-import option (see windows.gcc.inc) which should make them usable directly instead of lib files. So could you please check if your app will work linked with DLLs directly (instead of libs)? And of course let us know if there are problems with that.

The gcc compiler that comes with Code::Blocks is rather old. And the VisualC++ compiler (not the visual studio)is completely free and quite good. You can still use Code::Blocks with it.
