DS development > Help compiling ndslib template [SOLVED]

#44811 - strager - Sun Jun 05, 2005 7:04 pm

!!SOLVED!! Thanks to DesktopMan, this topic is now solved.

Help!

OK, I am having trouble compiling the template that comes with ndslib. I set up my environment like www.devkit.tk said, and all I get (when I run make) is this error:
Code:

rm -rf arm9/arm9.bin
rm -rf arm7/arm7.bin
make -C arm7 -I .
make[1]: Entering directory `/cygdrive/c/devkitPRO/projects/nds/template/arm7'
make[1]: /bin/sh.exe: Command not found
make[1]: *** [build] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/devkitPRO/projects/nds/template/arm7'
make: *** [all] Error 2
Press any key to continue . . .


I really want to start developing for the DS, but this has stopped me for the last couple of days.

Thanks,
strager

Did you install MSYS and put its bin directory in your path? (preferably first thing in your path)

Yes I did. I did put a semicolon, but I also put a slash after it. Is that OK?

Thanks.

Remove cygwin

Correct. It's a Bad Thing to have both MinGW-based tools (e.g. mingw native gcc, msys, devkitarm, devkitadv r5 series) and Cygwin-based tools (e.g. cygwin native gcc, older devkitadv) in the PATH where the programs might accidentally invoke each other.

I never got cygwin. I don't even know how it got there. I'll see if it's in any one of my environmental vars.

Edit: I figured out it was in DevKitAdv (forgot to remove it..). But now I'm having another problem:
Code:
rm -rf arm9/arm9.bin
rm -rf arm7/arm7.bin
make -C arm7 -I .
make[1]: Entering directory `/c/devkitPRO/projects/nds/template/arm7'
mv: missing file argument
Try `mv --help' for more information.
make[2]: [all] Error 1 (ignored)
/c/devkitPRO/projects/nds/template/arm7/Makefile:1: ../CommonMakefile.in: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `../CommonMakefile.in'.  Stop.
make[1]: *** [build] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/c/devkitPRO/projects/nds/template/arm7'
make: *** [all] Error 2
Press any key to continue . . .


I have no clue why it can't find CommonMakefine.in, when it's right there in the parent directory. I don't know where the mv command is coming from, either. I removed the ../ from the include in the ARM7 Makefile and it got rid of it, but the include error is still there.

Edit: OK I fixed the little include problem, arising more as I go:
Code:
rm -rf arm9/arm9.bin
rm -rf arm7/arm7.bin
make -C arm7 -I ..
make[1]: Entering directory `/c/devkitPRO/projects/nds/template/arm7'
mv: missing file argument
Try `mv --help' for more information.
make[2]: [all] Error 1 (ignored)
C:\devkitPRO\msys\bin\make.exe: *** couldn't commit memory for cygwin heap, Win32 error 487
make[1]: *** [build] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/c/devkitPRO/projects/nds/template/arm7'
make: *** [all] Error 2
Press any key to continue . . .



Thanks for the help so far!
