Topic: Help Compiling the Boost Libraries (Read 1844 times)
figured it out, I forgot to include the MSYS Basic Package when installing MINGW
What version of mingw are you using?
here is what I found in the bootstrap text file...
Code:
###
### Using 'mingw' toolset.

i fixed the gcc error but i still have this
If you haven't tried it already, I would recommend you take a look at MSYS. It has a number of helpful tools for building cross platform libraries.
Thanks, that's excatly it, I found here right before you posted that: http://windowsitpro.com/systems-management/how-can-i-add-new-folder-my-system-path
much much appreciated
Must say I have learned a lot about how all these OS's work from working on compiling all this stuff.

I think this is what I didn't do but not sure how to do it:
1.3. Add MinGW bin folder to your PATH environment variable (C:\MinGW\bin if you used installer defaults).
1.3. Add MinGW bin folder to your PATH environment variable (C:\MinGW\bin if you used installer defaults).
Check if you have a gcc.exe where you installed gcc.
Try "echo %PATH%" to get a list of your current paths for programs; gcc should be in there.
If not, you could try to reinstall gcc (assuming it would add the path) or you do it yourself. I think it's somewhere in computer->properties->advanced->environment
Or you edit the bat file and use the complete path to your gcc.exe in it.

Do I need to reinstall the GCC compiler somewhere?
"gcc is not recognized" sounds like gcc isn't in your path. Either add it or try to use the full path.
"b2" further down isn't recognized either.

any help?
I was attempting to compile litecoin (I'm doing it to learn the process for an altcoin I'm working on) on windows using the following directions from this thread:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/building-headless-bitcoin-and-bitcoin-qt-on-windows-149479
I successfully did the Berkley DB and OpenSSL compiles, but ran into the following when doing the Bootstrap.bet mingw command
any help?
(Also, does anyone know where I can find an windows binary of Multicoin)
