What settings to use when installing MinGW-W64 to build FuTTY?
I want to build FuTTY.
The original author uses Visual Studio, I want to avoid that. I found out that apparently I have to:
- Add
MinGW/binandMinGW/msys/1.0/binto the PATH - run
perl mkfiles.plto restore some missing makefiles - Remove
-mno-cygwinfrom Makefile.cyg - Add
XFLAGS = -DCOVERITYto Makefile.cyg - run
make -f Makefile.cyg putty.exefrom thewindowsdirectory
This works for building the original PuTTY, but is not enough for FuTTY.
It complains that KEY_WOW64_32KEY is undeclared. When I googled that, I found that apparently this means you need MinGW-W64.
At this point I'm making wild guesses, but I think the selector shown below means that the MinGW-W64 project is about making all kinds of toolchains run on Windows 64 bit and if I want something that works with PuTTY's MinGW makefile, I need this:
Right? So after downloading that, I am presented with questions I cannot answer:
