I can't have JOGL built...

So, does anybody know where do I get the MinGW for a Windows AMD 64 bit system?

This page doesn't tell me anything (it points me to so many things):

http://jogamp.org/jogl/doc/HowToBuild.html

Also, mingw-w64-bin_x86_64-mingw_20100515_sezero.zip doesn't exist (or I can't find it).

We've been using the 64 bit version from here with some success:

http://tdm-gcc.tdragon.net/

Gluegen. Good.

JOGL. Does not build.

Any other ideas anyone?

Ok. I'll stop developing on JDK 64 bit, I'll switch to JDK 32 bit to avoid all of these problems.

Thanks for the suggestions, anyways.

You might try the more detailed instructions at http://jogamp.org/wiki/index.php/Building_JOGL_on_the_command_line. I've used them to successfully build Gluegen and JOGL on 64-bit Windows many times. Let me know if there's anything unclear or missing from these instructions, and if so I'll fix it.

Build Successful!

My instructions:

Follow what the jogamp.org build JOGL instructions says.

Then, in eclipse go to gluegen/make and click build.xml and then -> run as ant build... -> run. If you get any errors then go back to ->run as ant build... and fix them.

Follow the same steps to build jogl/make.

Also, stick to developing on 32 bits if you are not going to take advantage of 64 bits.

I finally went back and fixed the instructions at http://jogamp.org/wiki/index.php/Building_JOGL_on_the_command_line to separately show how to install MinGW for 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows. The instructions at http://jogamp.org/jogl/doc/HowToBuild.html have showed this correctly for a while now, I just kept forgetting to update the more detailed instructions to match.

I recently had to re-install 64-bit Windows on my box, so then I reinstalled MinGW using my own (wrong) instructions on the wiki and ran into the same problem on this thread just today. Pretty embarrassing :)
