Hello! I wanna compile allegro5 program to work under cygwin as it's the only place I go being at windows c:. Anyways, I extract include and lib allegro files as at Unix and my make generated command looks like: g++ -o DevRPG ../src/*.cpp -std=c++11 -I/lib/liballegro* -L/lib -lallegro `pkg-config --libs allegro-4.0 allegro_image-5.0 allegro_font-5.0`
And I specify PKG_CONFIG_PATH as "/lib/ usr/include". 1Package allegro-4.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
2Perhaps you should add the directory containing `allegro-4.0.pc'
3to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
4No package 'allegro-4.0' found
5Package allegro_image-5.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
6Perhaps you should add the directory containing `allegro_image-5.0.pc'
7to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
8No package 'allegro_image-5.0' found
9Package allegro_font-5.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
10Perhaps you should add the directory containing `allegro_font-5.0.pc'
11to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
12No package 'allegro_font-5.0' found
Also and fatal error inside almngw32.h about direct.h header: 13In file included from /usr/include/allegro5/internal/alconfig.h:37:0,
14 from /usr/include/allegro5/base.h:50,
15 from /usr/include/allegro5/allegro.h:26,
16 from ../src/main.cpp:28:
17/usr/include/allegro5/platform/almngw32.h:23:20: fatal error: direct.h: No such file or directory
18 #include <direct.h>
Did anyone try to build it this way before? Thank you and I pass out for today. Maybe gonna come up with some more reasonable solution tomorrow. |

You have a typo in your pkg-config command, and either way you don't need the .0 bit of it, it's just allegro-5 etc. As for the other error... it's not clear to me why it's using almngw32.h if you're in Cygwin... did you compile Allegro yourself?

SiegeLord said: You have a typo in your pkg-config command, and either way you don't need the .0 bit of it, it's just allegro-5 etc. So I correct my g++ command: g++ -o DevRPG ../src/*.cpp -std=c++11 -I/usr/include/allegro5 -L/lib -lallegro `pkg-config --libs allegro-5 allegro_image-5 allegro_font-5` But still error message looks the same, just this time it says: [...] No package 'allegro-5' found [...] etc. Quote: As for the other error... it's not clear to me why it's using almngw32.h if you're in Cygwin I don't know either :/. Quote: ...did you compile Allegro yourself? I'm using allegro 5.0.9 as the software I'm compiling been written a while ago. I did not compile allegro, just copy lib, and include into /lib and /usr/include.. should I compile the bin somehow? This code been written under windows and it should work linked just with 'liballegro-5.0.9-monolith-mt.a' and 'liballegro-5.0.9-monolith-mt-debug.a'. |

If the code had been already designed for Windows, you're probably best off using MSYS2 to compile it. Either way, for Cygwin you'll need to recompile Allegro for it. "For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increases knowledge increases sorrow."-Ecclesiastes 1:18 |
