Compiling/installing RTEMS under Cygwin

[Robert S. Grimes]

Hi,

Thanks!  However, I think I do have them all installed.  If I may hazard a
guess, you are referring to those lines like this:
  > checking for working aclocal... missing
  > checking for working autoconf... missing
  > checking for working automake... missing
  > checking for working autoheader... missing
  > checking for working makeinfo... missing
However, if I enter any of the commands (e.g. aclocal, autoconf, etc.) on
the command line, the specified tool responds!  I think something's not
quite right.

As a potentially related issue, in the "Getting Started with RTEMS for C/C++
Users" appendix on "Using MS-Windows as a Development Host", there is a note
to this effect:

  "There is no cc program by default. The GNU configure
   scripts used by RTEMS require this to be present to work
   properly. The solution is to link gcc.exe to cc.exe. "

However, when I try this, I get the following:

  $ ln gcc.exe cc
  ln: accessing `gcc.exe': No such file or directory

However, if I enter 'gcc' from the command line, it IS there!  Any ideas?

And while we are at this, what is the exact command I should use:

  ln gcc.exe cc                  --As Camilo suggests
  ln gcc.exe cc.exe              --As Getting Started suggests
  ln m68k-rtems-gcc.exe cc       --Target is m68k
  ln m68k-rtems-gcc.exe cc.exe   --Another variant

Thanks for all help!
-Bob

Hi,
        It seems that your cygwin is not fully configured. While installing
cygwin, enable all in the list of tools to be installed from cygwin
installation
tool.
