Building libevhtp using Mingw


I am building libevhtp on windows using mingw,I have generated Makefileusing cmake and mingw. I am getting error while calling "make"-

fatal error: arpa/inet.h: No such file or directory

This is the log.c which is giving error. I have checked mingw and doesn't contain arpa/inet.h and installer doesn't provide any library which gives arpa/inet.h.

Solution

  • arpa/inet.h is a POSIX header and the win32 API doesn't support it. MinGW headers are just a reimplementation of native win32 headers and don't offer additional POSIX compatibility. On Windows, you must use winsock2.h.

    You can try Cygwin instead which include a lot more from Linux. Installation of Cygwin is going to take a lot of time and outcome result is not guarantied.

    Edit

    I found this article compiling the version 1.2.11n which apparently works cause there is no log.c.

    I discover also the import of arpa/inet.h in evhtp.c in 1.2.11n and the current version

    #define _GNU_SOURCE
    #include <stdlib.h>
    #include <string.h>
    #include <stdint.h>
    #include <errno.h>
    #include <signal.h>
    #include <strings.h>
    #include <inttypes.h>
    #ifndef WIN32
    #include <sys/socket.h>
    #include <netinet/in.h>
    #include <netinet/tcp.h>
    #include <arpa/inet.h>
    #else
    #define WINVER 0x0501
    #include <winsock2.h>
    #include <ws2tcpip.h>
    #endif
    

    which is a conditional import. I believe they forget to add conditional import in log.c. I suggest you to open an issue asking to make log.c cross platform like evhtp.c
