- Subject: How to compile on Windows?
Hello all,
I am attempting to compile libffi on windows, and am having some
trouble. I was able to figure out how to get the "configure" step to
work by using the provided example in the README. The configure step
completed successfully and the necessary .h and Makefiles were
created.
Now when I try to invoke 'nmake', it quits quickly with an error
saying "Illegal '\' character in macro. Quitting." or something along
those lines, and I'm not sure where to take it from here.
Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!
