Build Issues on Cygwin - Githubissues

sewpafly commented 14 years ago

I'm unsure how to make this change through all the config files, but apparently cygwin didn't like the -static flag that was being used in deps/ncurses/progs/Makefile and deps/ncurses/tests/Makefile. I removed these and it appeared to compile fine...

However after compiling I tried to run test.js and got the following errors.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/node-ncurses/examples/test.js:5
                                                     win.centertext(win.lines/2, "hello world");
                                                                                                    ^
 Error: Invalid number and/or types of arguments

Also colortest.js output this which looks a little funny with the undefined:

Max color pairs support == 64
Initialized color pairs == undefined

White on black
Red on white
Green on black
Yellow on black

The test.js error went away after I got the latest ncurses from cygwin, however the build error still exists and the undefined in colortest appears to still have problems.

The compile error went away after I created a link libgcc_s.a to point to the libgcc_s.dll.a library.
