Build with mingw-w64 / msys2 #467

Open jeroen opened 8 years ago

jeroen commented 8 years ago

Is it possible to build static libraries (libhedis.a) that can be linked into a mingw-w64 application?

Hi @jeroenooms if you are interested in stand alone hiredis for Windows, you'll find it here: https://github.com/microsoft/hiredis. The one used for Redis on Windows has too many dependencies to be linked in other projects.

Thanks! The question still stands though if that can be built with mingw-w64 / msys2 ?

@jeroenooms as you may imagine, it's not a supported scenario, but it may work, probably with some fixes here and there.
