[haiku-development] Re: building under Cygwin (windows)

Hi Oliver,
thank you for your reply.


It seems that cygwin's linker does not allow multiple instances of the same
symbol, probably due to existing binary format rules on Windows.

Could you please try to invoke the linker command manually and add '-z muldefs'
to it? I am not even sure the cygwin linker supports that option, but if it
does work this way, it could be possible to add this option to the build of
host-tools on the cygwin platform...


It doesn't support -z muldefs, but it supports
--allow-multiple-definition. I added it, and the previous error
doesn't show up anymore, but still it doesn't link (see other
message).
