Hi All,
I'm new to cygwin, so my problem below is probably quite simple to solve. I have installed cygwin recently, downloaded from one of the mirrors. The version reported by uname -a is NT-5.1.
I also got the latest wxwidgets from www.wxwidgets.org (wxMSW-2.6.3), however I don't think my problem is at all related to wxwidgets.
The problem is, the gnu configure script included with wxwidgets won't run, giving a syntax error:
bash-3.1$ ./configure : command not found4: ./configure: line 22: syntax error near unexpected token `elif' ./configure: line 22: `elif test -n "${BASH_VERSION+set}" && (set -o posix) >/de '/null 2>&1; then bash-3.1$
Now, afaik 'elif' is valid syntax for sh/bash.. In fact, any gnu configure script has this syntax.
My guess is that there is some basic thing I missed in setting up the cygwin environment, and I'm hoping someone on the list knows.
I've searched the mailing list archive, to no avail. Also, google is not my friend in this case.
Sorry for wasting time!
You have CRNL as line endings in your files (bad) and you apparently have put them on a binary mount (good). In short, you'd see this same problem on Linux with the files in question (or using the tools that you did to unpack the files). I recommend running all the files through 'd2u'. You'll have better luck then.
