I am building Adaptive Communication Environment (ACE) 6.5.8 using MinGW following steps in http://www.dre.vanderbilt.edu/~schmidt/DOC_ROOT/ACE/ACE-INSTALL.html#mingw. I use Windows10 64 bit Operating system. I am very new to building C++ projects.

I installed MinGW from https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/. I believe it is a 32 bit version. I used MinGW installation Manager to download all packages.

I downloaded ACE 6.5.8 from http://download.dre.vanderbilt.edu/ and extracted to C:\ACE_wrappers

created config.h file inside C:\ACE_wrappers\ace

#define ACE_HAS_WINNT4 1
#define ACE_HAS_STANDARD_CPP_LIBRARY 1
#define ETIME 1
#define ACE_HAS_POSIX_TIME 1
#define ACE_LACKS_TIMESPEC_T 1
#include "ace/config-win32.h"

following the steps given, in msys shell, cd $ACE_ROOT/ace and make

I got error of 

make[1]: Entering directory `/c/Moto_Program/ACE_wrappers/ace'

  • Why do you added all those lines to ace/config.h? Did you create platform_macros.GNU? Which gcc version is this? Just pasting the errors doesn't help, how was the compiler invoked? – Johnny Willemsen Feb 18 '20 at 13:16
  • yes, I did create platform_macros.GNU. All those line was added to ace/config.h to solve previous error that I got building the ACE. Currently found new error and could not figure it out. I'm using gcc version 6.3.0. Sorry for pasting the error, this is my first time asking question over here. – Aiman Hakim Feb 19 '20 at 00:32
  • It looks the mingw32 port is broken and needs some improvements, have you tried http://mingw-w64.org? – Johnny Willemsen Feb 19 '20 at 10:43
  • installed mingw-w64, same result as before. – Aiman Hakim Feb 20 '20 at 07:48

We compile daily with MinGW-64 without problems, see https://buildlogs.remedy.nl/win_mingw64_64_tao for the logs of our daily build. Check the config page of the build, please compare our settings with yours.
