[Xapian-discuss] Building on Windows

[Craig Lee]

Hi,

I am brand new to Xapian and am trying to get it to build on my Windows
XP SP2 computer.  I have downloaded cygwin and did a full install.  I
have downloaded the most recent xapian-core code.

Here is what I have done so far:
a. I unpacked the core and put in at c:\xapian-core-0.9.0
b. I then opened a cmd window, typed 'sh' to open up the cygwin shell
and then typed in the './configure' command
c. This ran and seemed to be fine until towards the end I got some FIND:
Parameter format not correct errors

...
checking for special C compiler options needed for large files... no
checking for _FILE_OFFSET_BITS value needed for large files... no
checking for _LARGE_FILES value needed for large files... no
FIND: Parameter format not correct
FIND: Parameter format not correct
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: creating testsuite/Makefile
config.status: creating include/Makefile
config.status: creating common/Makefile
...

d. I then realized that my $HOME path had a space in it, so I re-ran
configure with --prefix=/home/calee (after creating that directory under
cygwin/home).  I get the same FIND errors.
e. I then proceeded to try the 'make' command.  This does place some
include files in my home path correctly, but no binaries get built.  I
see the following errors.  It looks like the directories below '.' got
built correctly.

...
Making all in .
