Closed, ResolvedPublic

The system headers of mingw.org's MinGW don't define EOPNOTSUPP, which is used in libgpg-error-1.44.
This fails the compilation.
Attached please find patches to 2 files to fix that.

Please specify your MinGW version.

Generated code-to-errno.h should include <winsock2.h> and when it defines WSAEOPNOTSUPP, it should work.

So, I wonder what's going on.

This is with mingw.org's MinGW, version 5.4.x.

As for the problem: I don't know enough about the architecture of the library to pinpoint the cause, but I hope seeing the actual compilation error messages I saw before the change would help you see the root cause:

     libtool: compile:  gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -DLOCALEDIR=\"d:/usr/share/locale\" -Id:/usr/include -O2 -gdwarf-4 -g3 -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wno-psabi -MT libgpg_error_la-w32-estream.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/libgpg_error_la-w32-estream.Tpo -c

     Makefile:998: recipe for target `libgpg_error_la-w32-estream.lo' failed

Let me know if I can provide more details about this.

Thank you for the error output.

I applied the second part of your patch. That's enough and correct.

The first part of your patch is irrelevant, because it changes the other case;
The code in code-to-errno.c does: gpg-error's error code -> errno -> error string. If applied, the error message for GPG_ERR_EOPNOTSUPP were changed to the one of ENOSYS, that's not good.
