Hi Gary,
I have not built the SWI-Prolog system using mingw32, but I have had success
in building a foreign dll for SWI-Prolog (win32) using a linux system and
the mingw32 cross compilation tools.
I can't find my notes on this ... But the following might be useful:
1. Installed mingw packages on the linux box:
mingw32-runtime-3.7-2
binutils-mingw32-2.15.94-1
gcc-mingw32-3.4.2-4
mingw32-w32api-3.2-2
2. Sample Makefile
The simple Makefile below, allowed the same C source for a foreign module
for SWI-Prolog to be built for either linux or win32.
(Note that libpl.lib was copied from the Win32 distribution of SWI-Prolog,
whilst the Linux system had its own distribution of SWI-Prolog)
PLBASE=$(shell eval `pl -dump-runtime-variables` && echo $$PLBASE)
MINGW=i386-mingw32
WINLIBPL=build_scripts/materials/libpl.lib
all: so dll
so: bin/my_shared_object.so
dll: bin/my_shared_object.dll
bin/my_shared_object.so: my_shared_object.c
plld -o bin/sql_tokens -shared -Wall -O3 -g sql_tokens.c
bin/my_shared_object.dll: my_shared_object.c
$(MINGW)-gcc -I$(PLBASE)/include -O3 -shared -o $@ $< $(WINLIBPL)
$(MINGW)-strip bin/sql_tokens.dll
Let me know if this was any help.
Cheers,
Steve
