pre-built W32 version

[BobWorkman]

Is it at all possible to get a pre-built version (i.e. the .exe file) of remake, preferably 3.82 as that is the version of the GNU Make I am using, for Windows 32 ?

I have had no luck building the source code.

Thanks

https://sourceforge.net/projects/bashdb/files/remake/3.82%2Bdbg-0.9/ has remake.exe. I built it on an XP vm under cygwin, so I don't know if it will work for you.

actually I think I mis-spoke. What I need is a version that will run in the command line prompt under windows 7

I did try the executable but it failed missing a cygwin dll

Ok. No doubt it could be done, but I'm not going to be the one to do it. I'll leave this open in the off chance someone else wants to tackle.

@rocky I have a Windows machine, I might be able to get this working. Perhaps remake could benefit from AppVeyor. AppVeyor has MinGW, MSYS, and Cygwin pre-installed in their build environment.

@tay10r Great! I hope you get this working. As for AppVeyor, I use it in some other projects. I haven't spent a lot of time trying to undestand its configuration in any detail.

So what I suggest is fork the code to a public github account. Enable appveyor on that and set up all the various configurations you want. And when the dust settles put in a PR.

Is there a precompiled version of latest remake for Windows7. I have had no luck in building this code using CygWin or VisualStudio.
