bluetooth help
by Michael Cronenworth 10 Dec '11

10 Dec '11

Has anyone used Bluetooth devices with MinGW compiled programs? I can perform a bluetooth scan and I can see devices, but calling connect() fails with a bad port/address message. I have a valid bluetooth address that I have verified exists in the address structure with a hex dump. I also know the bluetooth device is reachable in Windows as I can use PuTTY to connect to the COM port and talk to the device just fine. It seems like the connect doesn't even try to reach the device as I have tried to connect when the device is not paired in windows and I never receive a pair prompt. Pairing the device manually doesn't help connect work though. I have run out of ideas to what the cause of the failure is and Windows documentation is very lacking. Thanks for any help, Michael

CRYPT package for MinGW64/32
by Boszormenyi Zoltan 04 Dec '11

04 Dec '11

Hi, I created a package for cryptographic functions as found in http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/crypt.htm . You can get it from http://www.kortancegyesulet.hu/private/zoltan/mingw-crypt-2.14-1.fc16.src.r… Implementation details: - The main crypt-2.14.tar.gz source is only a skeleton that contains configure.ac, Makefile.am, etc. - The secondary source file (crypt.tar.gz) is the crypt directory from glibc-2.14.90-19 SRPM as in Fedora 16, you can compare them. GNUWin32's crypt.dll is a modified source from GLIBC 2.2.5. - crypt-mingw.patch contains - 3 necessary private headers from glibc: sysdeps/i386/bits/byteswap.h sysdeps/x86_64/bits/byteswap.h sysdeps/x86_64/bits/wordsize.h - a naive implementation for stpncpy(3) as the algorithm is described in the man page and modifies the crypt source itself in a minimalistic was so it can compile standalone (e.g. there is no weak_alias(), and __THROW) and without warnings on both mingw32 and mingw64. The result is libcrypt-1.dll (NOT crypt.dll as in GNUWin32), so when GLIBC adds more crypthographic functions, the library version can increase. All test programs (md5test.exe, md5c-test.exe, sha256test.exe, sha256c-test.exe, sha512test.exe, sha512c-test.exe, ufc.exe) report success with 0 return code. Best regards, Zoltán Böszörményi

The Fedora MinGW SIG currently has an infrastructure ready which allows easy cross compilation of packages for the win32 target using the mingw.org toolchain. I'm not really familiar with lazarus, but I'm willing to help out wherever I can. I just took a quick look at the wiki page you mentioned. As I see it now there are 3 steps involved in builder a lazarus cross compiler for the win32 target: 1. build binutils for the win32 target 2. build the lazarus fpc compiler for the win32 target 3. configure the lazarus fpc.cfg Step 1 is already provided by the Fedora MinGW SIG. We've got the mingw32-binutils package which contains the various binutils tools for the win32 target. The only real differences I've found so quick are the name of the build target and the installation location. In the fpc buildcrossbinutils script the build target 'i686-mingw32' is used while all Fedora MinGW packages use 'i686-pc-mingw32' (and once the mingw-w64 toolchain is approved for inclusion in Fedora this will be changed to 'i686-w64-mingw32' and 'x86_64-w64-mingw32', see [1] for more details about that). The mingw32-binutils binaries are all placed in %{_bindir}. For step 2 I think you need to extract the interesting instructions from the lazarus buildcrosssnaphot script and merge them in a .spec file. I think it should be pretty straightforward to do so. Step 3 doesn't tell me much, but I guess the current lazarus package ships a fpc.cfg and this file needs to be changed to be aware of the win32 fpc target. If you need any help with the above steps you can always join our IRC channel at #fedora-mingw on FreeNode and we'll try to help you as much as possible. Kind regards, Erik van Pienbroek Fedora MinGW SIG [1]: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Mingw-w64_cross_compiler
