Build fails on Win10 msys64

[jpnielsen]

Goal is to use https://faustide.grame.fr/ to generate a vcv rack module.

First i tried generating the vcvrack project file with their Web gui, but th ecompilation failed.

then i tried installing vcv prototype like they suggest in "Compiling the VCV Prototype module Faust version"

pacman -Suv
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-portaudio (was installed after the build dep below gave an error)
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-libsndfile (was installed when compilation of the faust2vcv example failed)
cd Rack/plugins
git clone -b faust https://github.com/VCVRack/VCV-Prototype.git
cd VCV-Prototype/
git submodule update --init --recursive
make -j4 dep

so far no errors.

the quickjs parts are warnings, which in this case can likely be ignored, but the src/Prototype.cpp:9:10: fatal error: efsw/efsw.h: No such file or directory is a definite error. it looks like one of the dependencies failed.

will have to wait for someone more familiar with that part to respond.

What are the errors?

efsw is a git submodule, have you done: https://github.com/VCVRack/VCV-Prototype#load-submodules ?

Yes, "git submodule update --init --recursive" in the VCV-Prototype dir.

Something was changed in efsw 4 days ago - perhaps the lua config and build doesn't run in the submodule.
I'm not an expert.

Here, I run make in a dir exported from the Faust web GUI

Since this is not a Faust related compilation issue, I hope @AndrewBelt can have a look.

[sletz]

Here, I run make in a dir exported from the Faust web GUI

On which OS are you compiling?

[jpnielsen]

Sorry, wrong file - it was for the OWL

Here's the right file
binary..zip

Edit:
It came from here:

On which OS are you compiling?

Windows 10
MSYS2 Mingw64

[sletz]

Can you try to add the following lines at the beginning of the FaustModule.cpp file and recompile ?

#ifdef WIN32
#define uint unsigned int
#endif

or

#ifdef WIN32
typedef unsigned int uint
#endif

[jpnielsen]

#ifdef WIN32
#define uint unsigned int
#endif

src/FaustModule.cpp:4857:9: error: 'uint' was not declared in this scope; did you mean 'rint'?
4857 | uint buttons = params.fButtons.size();
| ^~~~
| rint

or

#ifdef WIN32
typedef unsigned int uint
#endif

No difference, still get the error:

src/FaustModule.cpp:4858:9: error: 'uint' was not declared in this scope; did you mean 'rint'?
4858 | uint buttons = params.fButtons.size();
| ^~~~
| rint

Anyhow - I'll just close this and use Ableton + Max/MSP instead.
Every time i want to try installing something from source I have to solve a bunch of errors first.

[sletz]

Yes, this is probably te different between commercial products, and open-source projects where testing on all possible software combinations is usually out of reach with limited resources.

[mxa]

Never the less an issue is only closed if it is solved (or nobody will pick it up over an extended period of time).

[jpnielsen]

OK, Issue reported.

I don't have ressources to do further investigation/debugging.
