Re: Is possible build latest gnustep from github rep on windows?

[Andreas Fink]

I remember having seen similar stuff in the past (but thats like 10 years ago) when I ported Mac code to Linux. The work around was to force initialisation for some stuff.

Unfortunately I can't remember what was my workaround for it but it might be stuff which NSApplication initializes which never gets called when you call NSLog from main directly.

That exit code is STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION, I’m guessing it’s crashing somewhere in the GNUstep initialization.

I think you won’t get any further without using a debugger to get a stack trace of the crash. You should be able to use either Visual Studio or lldb for that.

Hello RK, first of all thank you for your reply and advice. I am currently using gnustep-tools-windows-msvc, but the program does not work properly using code that involves objects, such as the following code:

@interface HelloWorld : NSObject

- (void)sayHello;

@end

@implementation HelloWorld

- (void)sayHello {

NSLog(@"Helo RK");

}

@end

int main() {

printf("1111111111111111111111111111111111111\n");

HelloWorld *hello = [[HelloWorld alloc] init];

        printf("222222222222222222222222222222222\n");

[hello sayHello];

printf("3333333333333333333333333333333333333\n");

return 0;

}

log

C:\demo>a.exe

1111111111111111111111111111111111111

C:\demo>echo %errorlevel%

All the gnustep libraries and compilation commands I use are provided by https://github.com/gnustep/tools-windows-msvc.

This means that the program is terminated after only the first printf statement is executed. I have tested this code on linux and it is fully compiled and run properly. Do you know what is going on here? Thanks!

Best regards!
