Hey,

I have seen this error myself and if I recall correctly it happens if
you run configure and then make. That's not the correct way to build
with msys/mingw; the build system follows the MSVC-style configuration
where you have to edit a couple of files manually. Please have a look at
the README.win32.txt, it's all documented there.

A while ago I submitted some minor MinGW-related fixes which Duncan
kindly checked in, but I think it was post-4.1.4. You might want to grab
the latest source from SVN or do the tweaks to a couple of Makefiles
yourself.

Best regards,
Sampo

Hi
Sampo Thanks for your replay.
i have followed the procedure in readme.win32.txt.
things are better now . i will ask you a simple
question please help me.
i cant configure python path . i have python in c:\Python26
and i have this line
in x86.win32.mingw.mk file and commented the first line ....

PYTHON =/c/Python26/

but still it says python.h not found. can you please
tell me how to configure
python properly . thanks in advance.

Hi,

I've only used the "minimal python distribution" which is available from
the omniORB sourceforge page. It works out of the box after applying the
patch included in omniORB/patches.

I don't have the standard python distribution installed so I cannot
check, but in this case you probably just need to add some subdirectory
to the path (/c/Python26/python?). You could first locate your python.h
and then make sure that the now failing command has the correct path set.

Best regards,
Sampo

Hi Sankar,

Newer versions of cygwin will need
PYTHON = /cygdrive/c/Python26

Luke

Try with the latest svn version, either with an svn checkout of
branches/4_1 or with this snapshot of svn:

http://omniorb.sourceforge.net/snapshots/omniORB-4.1-latest.tar.gz

Or you could try applying these patches to 4.1.4:

http://www.omniorb-support.com/pipermail/omniorb-list/2009-August/030241.html

I've not tried any of these things myself...
