Subject: [Caml-list] OCaml installer on Windows no longer installs MinGW?
Date: Mon, 15 Jul 2013 14:11:59 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <51E3E70F.9010202@inria.fr> (raw)
Hello,
I just installed OCaml from http://protz.github.io/ocaml-installer/ on a
fresh Windows 7 32bit installation, in VirtualBox, and run into several
problems.
During OCaml installation...
- It failed to download Tcl/Tk but I don't care about Tcl/Tk so I continued.
During Cryptokit compilation...
- The configure step returned no error although it should have (see below).
- It failed to compile because it could not find i686-w64-mingw32-gcc.
Apparently it was not installed by the OCaml installer.
- I found no way to specify the GCC executable name during the "setup.ml
-configure" step. Can OASIS handle this?
- I installed the Cygwin packages mingw64-i686-gcc and
mingw64-i686-headers myself.
Then, compiling Cryptokit failed: ocamlmklib raised End_of_file while
trying to read libmoldname.a, which happens to be 8 bytes long.
I have absolutely no clue what to do now. Is the installer from
protz.github deprecated?
Thanks,
