Thanks, Mark. Will do.
Should I attempt to rebuild EPICS base with this new make.exe prior to trying
to compile/build the example IOC?

gunzip it, and rename it from make to make.exe.

Mark,
I tend to agree with you
regarding figuring out why the latest version of Cygwin make is not
working…..
In the meantime, I was wondering
if you could please have a copy of your make.gz. Thought that I
would give it a try.

Interestingly I see the following:
$ uname -r
1.7.7(0.230/5/3)
$ ls -al /bin/make*
-rwx------+ 1 epics None 495190
2008-05-23 17:48 /bin/make.exe
-rwxr-x---+ 1 epics Users 151552
2008-02-09 13:50 /bin/make.exe.old
-rw-r--r-- 1 rivers mkpasswd 179495 2009-01-12 14:03
/bin/make.gz
So my version of Cygwin is slightly older than yours, 1.7.7
vs 1.7.9. I have the same version of make as you which I am NOT using,
(it is renamed to make.exe.old) and I am using another version that is about 3
times larger. I honestly don’t remember where I got the version that I am
using. But the .gz file expands into the version of make.exe that I am
using. I can make that available if you want, but I think we need to
figure out why the latest version of Cygwin make is not working?

Mark,
Cgwin version is as follows:
$
uname -r
1.7.9(0.237/5/3)
Info for /bin/make is as
follows:
$
ls -al make
-rwxr-xr-x
1 ui495a root 151552 Feb 9 2008 make
Flo
Those are the same settings I am using.
What version of Cygwin are you using? What is the size
and date of your /bin/make.exe?

Mark,
I’ve set the following in the
file, CONFIG_SITE,
SHARED_LIBRARIES = NO
STATIC_BUILD = YES

I don’t think that tech-talk message of mine applies any
more. That was an attempt to use the Cygwin version of make to build for
win32-x86. That is not supported, and one should use the GnuWin version
of make to build for win32-x86.
As far as I know the current Cygwin version of make should
work OK to build for the cygwin-x86 architecture, and there is no need to roll
back to an earlier version.
Are you building statically or dynamically?
Mark
This tech-talk
entry may fix your problem.

Hello all,
I’ve just installed EPICS base (3.14.12.1) on Windows XP
with Cygwin (EPICS_HOST_ARCH = cygwin-x86). To verify the
installation, I was attempting to building the Example IOC application (per
Section 2.2 of the Application Developer’s Guide).
Unfortunately, I am encountering the following errors upon
attempting to compile:
$ make

Not sure if this is an indication that I have a bad EPICS
base build and/or have something lacking in my environment, etc. Any
help/info/assistance will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Florencio Cid
