Hi Seahorse,

I wrote the instructions you're using, and I'm completely certain they work on Windows 7 (since that's what I use), but there may be some problem if you don't do every tiny detail correctly

I set gluegen.properties to
antlr.jar=C:/ANTLR/antlr-3.4-complete.jar
win32.c.compiler="mingw32"

This seems unwise. JOGL's ANTLR grammars are 2.x level, not 3.x level, so I don't think the new ANTLR will compile them. This could be part of your problem.

Also, there's no reason to put anything at all inside of gluegen.properties or jogl.properties for a basic build. Any option you put in there could be messing something up.

What is the solution for solving this?
Does gluegen not compile on windows 7?
What is this cl.exe and cl error?
Is some step missed out on the wiki site, what is cl.exe?

cl.exe is the Microsoft Visual Studio compiler. This should not be invoked by your build, so something must be set up incorrectly  Perhaps your DOS command line environment is set up for MSVC instead of GCC?

I'd advise doing a completely non-customized build of gluegen and jogl, exactly like the instructions say. Once that works, you can try changing things, and at least that way you'll know which step is causing the problem.
