[vlc-devel] Re: Error - using cygwin on windows- Please help

[Rajan Rakesh-A20642]

Hi,
Thanks for the help. I really like that document.
I could configure the VLC properly using CYGWIN.

I gave the flag '--disable-dvd' in my ./configure. 
I reinstalled 'gettext' and 'libiconv' two three times.
But still I am getting the following error.
Would some one please tell me what is the issue here?

As EXPLAINED in the INSTALL.win32 file, you also need to install some 
specific cygwin packages (ie. gcc-mingw, mingw-runtime and win32-api).

Have a look at this doc as well:
