That should work if you are targeting PX4 v1.11; perhaps @MaEtUgR can comment.

If it was me I would use WSL2 - following the instructions in http://docs.px4.io/main/en/dev_setup/dev_env_windows_wsl.html but using the PX4 v1.11 sources.

Thanks for your reply! I have followed the steps in http://docs.px4.io/main/en/dev_setup/dev_env_windows_wsl.html to install wsl2 but when i type "make px4_sitl " it show "ninja: no work to do.". and when i type "make px4_sitl jmavsim" it still encounter some problems below i think i have problems about how to set the version to 1.11 while doing the work in http://docs.px4.io/main/en/dev_setup/dev_env_windows_wsl.html

Any reason why you have to stay at PX4 v1.11? I'll try look at this on Wednesday.

OK, thank you! Because you suggest me to follow the instructions in http://docs.px4.io/main/en/dev_setup/dev_env_windows_wsl.html but using the PX4 v1.11 sources. But i don't know how to use the wsl with PX4 v1.11 sources.

I built it in window11 and followed the tutorial in Windows Cygwin 工具链, but I received the following error message. I can't upgrade cmake anyway. Please tell me. What should be done

We're up to PX4 v1.14 - I suggest you migrate up from PX4 v1.11 and you're more likely to get support.

If I had to get this working I would TRY to do this on WSL2 - so follow the WSL2 setup instructions from https://docs.px4.io/main/en/dev_setup/dev_env_windows_wsl.html#overview BUT install Ubuntu 20.04 rather than 20.02

Then use https://github.com/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/blob/v1.11.0/Tools/setup/ubuntu.sh as per the instructions to install the development environment.

And fetch PX4 v1.11 release branch and build that.

Note also that I would try Gazebo rather than jmavsim, which is now "community supported">

I'm closing this, as the Cygwin windows toolchain is no longer supported.
