Install Octave Windows Cygwin Alternative
Re: Building PyTave on windows - cygwin From: address@hidden Subject: Re: Building PyTave on windows - cygwin Date: Mon, 6 Jun 2016 06:18:50 +0900 (JST) - ee130002001 Hi,I started trying to build PyTave on windows. I used cygwin as I didn't know about any alternatives. I had to install many packages at first (it was a fresh cygwin install). My octave on windows was installed at 'e:/octave-4.0.0/'. When I do: './configure OCTAVECONFIG=e:/octave-4.0.0/bin/octave-config.exe' I got that linking with octave was failed.
And the setup showed that 'octave development packages' were not found. I change the address of config file with 'cygdrive/e/octave-4.0.0/bin/octave-config.exe' but got the same result. Then I installed 'octave-devel' package using 'apt-cyg'. On my 2G internet it took more than 3 hours and downloaded tonnes of packages and even install octave in cygwin (/bin/octave). So, now I gave '/bin/octave-config' as the config file.
Top 100 80's hits list. I grew accustomed to using Cygwin/bash to ease my life at work, and frankly speaking, i don't want to move away from bash language and start learning PowerShell, for example - so i started searching for a way to run bash scripts on Windows. Preferably something alternative to Cygwin.
(Although I think that I should not use this as octave is supposed to be installed on windows and not cygwin). I still get the same error. Any pointers as to how to proceed? Or any other methods to try this out (except cygwin)? I have pasted the whole configure output (which is nearly identical for all 3 things that I tried).: Abhinav address@hidden /cygdrive/e/MyRepos/pytave $./configure OCTAVECONFIG=/bin/octave-config checking for g.

On windows, there are two kind of octave. One is octave on.native.
windows and octave on cygwin. Theoretically.native. octave can built by cygwin using cross compiling tools but iirc noone succeed for that. I have succeed to build octave native to windows using octave package itself and msys2. Perhaps you need python. It can be installed using msys2.
