Compiling libusbmuxd on windows

[hyunmin90]

So I have successfully got to a point where I am compiling libusbmuxd on windows mingw to use it for windows platform.

However although autogen.sh and configure is done without error

it fails to make libusbmuxd at below . Does anyone have any idea on this? Is there a clear instruction on how to build in windows? Quoatmotion seems to have something but they don't detail anything on how to compile...

Is that line of source really Sleep(x1000)? The repo is Sleep(x*1000): https://github.com/libimobiledevice/libusbmuxd/blob/master/src/libusbmuxd.c#L46. I think the Markdown processing swallowed the asterisk. You can use back ticks to post text verbatim (see the Markdown link above the text box when posting).

So apparently, compiling in mingw causes a problem with the libusbmuxd on line for sleep.
For those who suffer the same issue as me, have a go and delete the line.

IT worked fine without the sleep define and now it works flawlessly.

I have met the same error prompts when use MinGW/msys compile it on Windows 10.

Interchanging the #include directives will be needed.

In the libusbmuxd.c file,
move #include <unistd.h> line before #ifdef WIN32.

[daniel-bluesea]

@hyunmin90 @sesjrs both your solutions solve the problem.
i think you can close this issue

[daniel-bluesea]

@FunkyM @nikias what is the preferred solution (delete the Sleep line or move #include <unistd.h> line before #ifdef WIN32.) according to you?

[nikias]

Can you guys try my patch here: https://gist.github.com/nikias/1822406ace368657a35703f68000be6c
it should make it compile properly when the sleep() function is available and #define it when not.

[daniel-bluesea]

seems ok.
thanks

Should be fixed with commit 5b338a4
