error during the building of JOGL: fatal error: X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory

Hello,

I try to build JOGL packages on Windows 7 64 bits following the steps in the guide belows:
https://jogamp.org/jogl/doc/HowToBuild.html

but the process has been stopped at this command:
>> cd jogl/make
>> ant
(open a command shell in the "jogl/make" directory of the source tree and type "ant".)

The errors is such as "fatal error: X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory"
The display of consonle as:
"

Can you help me to solve this error?

Thanks

Hi

I'm sorry but the build instructions are correct, I used them to build JOGL under Windows 7 64 bits. Ensure that you use the right version of MinGW.

Do you have mingw-libX11 or anything similar?

If X11/Xlib.h is really missing, this can help:

Hi gouessej,
I have reinstalled MinGW and it worked correctly. Thanks for your helpful reply.

You're welcome :)
