I did follow the "How to built LibreCAD (master branch) on Windows." instructions step by step but I keep getting the following error. would you please let me know whether I'm doing anything wrong? thank you in advance.

Error: dependent '..\..\generated\lib\libdxfrw.a' does not exist.jom: C:\cygwin\home\roozbehg\LibreCAD\librecad\src\Makefile [debug] Error 2
jom: C:\cygwin\home\roozbehg\LibreCAD\librecad\Makefile [sub-src-make_default] Error 2

Re: Compiling Error ...

ok never mind I did pass the error .. apparently you need to build the code with "MinGW 4.4 (Qt SDK) Debug or Release" ..

Glad it worked out!

When I compile on Windows to make a binary release I always use MingW myself with QT Creator.

or policy is in general that is should work with the standard SDK from Qt.

I know we have a occasional Windows developers in but most of us compile on Linux or OSX,

and thus we don't use the toolchains provided by Microsoft.

Re: Compiling Error ...

thank you Ries for the quick response ..

BTW .. what's your policy regarding using LibreCAD as a preprocessor for a finite element program (free code of course)?

Our policy in general is that as long as it's usefull for a set of users and we have the feeling

that the user will maintain the code then we are more then happy to distribute that, preferred as a module.

The more plugin the better!

We are working out new ideas for LibreCAD 3 and it will hopefully have much better plugin interface

than that we currently have. These are currently all ideas, although we do have a codebase we play around with (it's not even alpha quality though).
