[GRASS-dev] Compile r.example for GRASS6.4 in Windows

[António Rocha]

Greetings all

First of all let me thank Glynn and Markus for helping me on this. This 
is breaking my head...

1- First I installed GRASS6.4 binaries in C:/grass6

2- I used this website to install msys and libraries in order to compile 
C functions, just like r.example.
http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/wiki/CompileOnWindows
OSGEO4w was installed in c:/osgeo4w

3- I place r.example folder in code in C:/grass6/tests/r.example

4- So far, so good. Using msys I decided to compile using make file.
After a few try outs, Glynnn told me to use this expression:
make -C c:/grass6/tests/r.example MODULE_TOPDIR=c:/grass6

and I got a few errors. Glynn also told me to change a few variables at 
c:/grass6/include/make
Those were:
- At platform.make now it's:
GRASS_HOME          = /c/grass6
RUN_GISBASE         = c:/grass6
RUN_GISBASE         = c:/grass6

- At platform.make I left ARCH empty:

- At grass.make now they are written in msys style:
ARCH_DISTDIR    = /c/grass6
ARCH_BINDIR     = /c/grass6/bin
ERRORLOG        = /c/grass6

5- Then I was getting this error, with a few other small
*** No rule to make target `/c/grass6/lib/libgrass_gis.dll', needed by

6- Markus suggested me to make a copy of libgrass_gis.6.4.0svn.dll with 
the name libgrass_gis.dll.

7- And after this I got this error:
make: Entering directory `/c/grass6/tests/r.example'
c:/grass6/include/Make/Grass.make:418: warning: overriding commands for 
target `/c/grass6/bin'
c:/grass6/include/Make/Grass.make:409: warning: ignoring old commands

-lgrass_gis -lgrass_datetime -lxdr -liberty -lws2_32    -lz   -lintl   
-lxdr -liberty -lws2_32    -lz
gcc.exe: c:/grass6/lib/gis/OBJ./fmode.o: No such file or directory
make: *** [/c/grass6/bin/r.example.exe] Error 1
make: Leaving directory `/c/grass6/tests/r.example'

At C:/grass6/tests/r.example a new folder was created "OBJ "  with the 
file main.o.

Question? What else Should I do or what am I doing wrong?
After this; I promise I will submit my quest in GRASS Wiki :)

Thanks

Best Regards
Antonio ROcha
