How to build multiplatform projects like net-snmp with MinGW

[Ericbarker306]

Hi!
Can somebody explain how build this net-snmp code:
net-snmp
Steps shown at "README.win32" not works. I cant execute configure script. Same trouble with "libsmi" project:
libsmi

My OS: Windows7
Compiler: MinGW + Qt

Hi and welcome to devnet,

Can you explain in what way is that related to Qt ?
The instructions to build net-snmp are to be run in a terminal not from an IDE.

These are the steps to achieve the result:

• Download the Net-SNMP library
• Extract it wherever you want
• Download MSYS and install it
• Run MSYS, you will have a bash shell
• Now, locate the mingw compiler on Qt (see the image below)
• On the MSYS bash type these commands:
  1. mkdir -p /mingw
  2. mount c:/Qt/Tools/mingw730_64 /mingw (the path of the mingw you discovered on point 5.)
  3. go to the Net-SNMP source path
  4. ./configure –prefix=/mingw –without-openssl –without-perl-modules
  5. make
  6. make install
• Now, in the mingw Qt dir, you should have the Net-SNMP library and tools.
• Edit your .pro files and add this line: win32: LIBS += -L$$PWD/net-snmp/lib/ -lnetsnmp -lws2_32
