[Caml-list] Problems compiling chameleon.

[Caml-list] Problems compiling chameleon.

[Thaddeus L. Olczyk]

Apologies. I posted this to the beginners list about four days ago.
Since then one person posted that he was having the same problem.
I also recieved a couple of emails.
So I thought I would post here.



I've encountered some problems compiling chameleon on Windows.
here  is where I am at now.
1) I placed the gtk libraries in e:/ObjectiveCaml/bin.
2) I installed lablgtk in e:/ObjectiveCaml/lablgtk.
3) I execute the madatory "configure" command.
4) I execute the command:
     make depend.

At this point problems sort of spread out.
I cannot remember what library was missing from the distribution,
but I got an error message about a mising library. When I check for
this library it is in the e:/ObjectiveCaml/lib directory and should
have been found. 

So I look at master make and find a bunch of environmental variables
inititialized the cygwin way, and one initialized e:\ObjectCaml\lib.
So I change this to /cygdrive/e/ObjectiveCaml/lib. Now make depends
fails to find "pa_extend.cmo" in the command:
 ocamldep -pp camlp4r *.ml* > .depend

I replace all occurances of /cygdrive/e/ObjectiveCaml with
e:/ObjectiveCaml and use / as the path seperator ( legal in Windows).
That didn't help any.

Suggestions?

Perhaps a problem of installation. The file pa_extend.cmo should be in
the library directory of ocaml, sub-directory camlp4. Is it there? If
yes, try the command "camlp4 -where": it should display how camlp4
sees its library directory.

But it may be also a problem with Cygwin, because it is often
difficult to know if you have to use /cygdrive/e and right slashes or
E:\ and backslashes or a mix of right and back slashes or double
backslashes because of OCaml strings, and so on.

A way to change the Camlp4 library directory, without having to
recompile it is to define the environment variable CAMLP4LIB. Perhaps
redefining it with a "good value" (try several), it works better?

I'll try the rest later, but a comment for now.

I took the self-extacting 3.06 distribution.
( For those with no Windows knowledge. )
Basically an executable that is supposed to 
set everything up. 

So if this is an installation problem one of the people
creating the distribution screwed up.

PS: The file is there. I checked before sending.

PPS: camlp4 -where reports c:/caml/lib/camlp4/ which is just wrong.
About six months ago I put on an old version of caml ( which I removed
) perhaps that is causing the problem.

This helps somewhat. 
After adding this to the script and modifiing lablgtk ( two lines )
I get the message:

It is obvious that it didn't find the gtk-config script.
gtk-config is a script which gives the proper parameters
you have to pass to the C compiler in order to use and
link your programs to GTK. 

How did you install GTK on your system? (I have no
knowledge about installing unix program under Window though)

What gtk-devel package? For that matter what packages. Windows doesn't
use packages.

I've downloaded lablgtk and the gtk dlls for windows from the labgtk
web site. As far as I can see it is setup correctly.

The only other option would be to go to the GTK for Windows web page.
That won't work because the page is one of the worst written and most
badly irganized web pages in existence.
