Building G'MIC MSys2 (W64) error

What do I do here?

I haven’t built anything in a very long time. I would start by checking out the makefile.

David_Tschumperle · October 19, 2020, 8:27am

No idea, really.

But if you don’t need libgmic then maybe try to not compile it ?

kmilos · October 19, 2020, 9:02am

AFAIK there is a pre-built package in the msys2 repo, anything wrong with it?

David_Tschumperle · October 19, 2020, 9:21am

I guess @Reptorian want to hack the G’MIC source code, and build his own version of the software ?

kmilos · October 19, 2020, 9:38am

Sure… In that case maybe the msys2 recipe and patches could help as well?

ggbutcher · October 19, 2020, 1:59pm

How old is your msys2? In stackoverflow I found rather dated dialogue that leaned toward such…

Reptorian · October 19, 2020, 3:10pm

Actually, I do need libgmic. My goal in the end is to convert my g’mic scripts to Paint.NET plugin with gmic-sharp, so that users of Paint.NET would have my g’mic filters as plugin, and so I wouldn’t need to know c# syntax or workaround that are rather not enjoyable to type in. Hence, why you see pdn-gmic in the error.

I got it from here - https://www.msys2.org/

Reptorian · October 20, 2020, 12:08am

Hmm, does this mean anything?

EDIT: I think I can actually compile g’mic-sharp. Just a few more things to figure out now.

afre · October 20, 2020, 12:32am

It doesn’t say what is wrong… I guess you can tell where it stopped by seeing which files are missing from the build…

Reptorian · October 20, 2020, 3:30am

From Visual Studio - gmic.lib is missing. But, I’m not sure if you guys can address that.

@PDN_GMIC could.

samj · October 21, 2020, 10:45pm

@Reptorian
I don’t understand the problem with your filters under Paint.Net.
They work on my computer :

Reptorian · October 21, 2020, 11:23pm

I said that I wanted to make pdn plugins using gmic-sharp which uses gmic as a library. It isn’t about gmic-qt, but rather plugins for paint.net users. Gmic as a plugin and individual plugins are different.

samj · October 22, 2020, 2:09am

MSYS2

As indicated by @kmilos, try these commands which in principle will download the right dependencies then try your G’MIC compilation

64bit
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gmic

32bit
pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-gmic

PDN_GMIC · October 24, 2020, 12:22am

You cannot mix compilers when building gmic-sharp-native, you have to build both the libgmic static library and the libGmicSharpNative shared library with the same compiler.

As stated in the gmic-sharp-native readme, the Visual Studio build process is only intended for debugging.
The MSYS 2 instructions are the preferred method of building the library on Windows.

gaaned92 · October 24, 2020, 9:22am

The command seems to work.
At the end I get in src: use_libgmic.exe, libgmic.so, libgmic.a, libgmic.o
I don’t know if there should be other files.
Not very elegant to have an in-source build.

Reptorian · November 20, 2020, 9:24pm

That’s exactly what I get. But, putting them somewhere in bin files of mingw64 folder helps, but I did get a error there using msys2. It’s so close to doing it. I do wish there was clarification on what to do with .a,.so,and .o file in context of gmic-sharp-native.

C:/msys64/mingw64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/10.2.0/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lgmic
collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Seem like it’s relate to:

C:\msys64\mingw64\bin
C:\msys64\mingw64\lib\gcc\x86_64-w64-mingw32\10.2.0

I believe I have to copy the libgmic.o, and libgmic.a into C:\msys64\mingw64\lib\gcc\x86_64-w64-mingw32\10.2.0\, but the .so?

Here’s what I get by just copying .a and .o file only to 10.2.0 folder

*.a are statically linked libraries and *.so are dynamically linked. Not sure about moving them around…

Reptorian · November 20, 2020, 11:06pm

But then I get this error if I don’t copy and paste:

collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status

That’s the step after building libgmic. Gmic-sharp-native instruction tells me nothing about where to build libgmic other than building it inside gmic-sharp-native folder which almost worked, but ended up with a strange error that’s not above.

Could be a number of things in your configuration: forgetting to link, linking wrong directory, flag order, msys64/mingw64 setup or bug, etc.
