I personally, as well as other people, have attempted to port Gentoo |
| 9 |
Prefix to work on Cygwin. Unfortunately, these attempts have not been |
| 10 |
very successful, in part due to how Cygwin lays out its libraries. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
As an example, for a library named libfoo the following files would be |
| 13 |
installed: |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Linux Cygwin |
| 16 |
- ----- ------ |
| 17 |
lib/libfoo.a lib/libfoo.a |
| 18 |
lib/libfoo.so lib/libfoo.dll.a |
| 19 |
lib/libfoo.so.1 bin/cygfoo-1.dll |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Please note that the .dll file is installed in bin/ not lib/, as |
| 22 |
cygfoo-1.dll needs to be found in a directory listed in the $PATH |
| 23 |
environment variable (note: that's not LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but PATH -- the |
| 24 |
same variable used to find executables). Also, the .exe suffix on |
| 25 |
executables can cause other issues as well, as it is (sometimes) |
| 26 |
optional, and some packages can get confused about that. |
