I was cross compiling C with toolchain from OpenWRT on MAC OS. The C program has a dependancy on libcurl which I already installed. However, when i build the C program, i got the error messages as below.
1.Installed libcurl on MAC
brew install curl
2.Used toolbarchain to cross compile the main.c
toolchain-mips_34kc_gcc-4.8-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33.2/bin/mips-openwrt-linux-uclibc-gcc -I/usr/local/opt/curl/include main.c
3.Compilation errors
In file included from /usr/local/opt/curl/include/curl/curl.h:35:0,
from main.c:4:
/usr/local/opt/curl/include/curl/curlrules.h:142:3: error: size of array '__curl_rule_01__' is negative

You will need to cross compile curl/libcurl using your mips toolchain.
( In fact you should do this for all other dependencies )
You have installed curl using brew, which essentially put x64 version of curl on your system.
There are certain headers in curl which gets generated at compile time ( I think curlbuild.h )
These headers define macros based on the architecture e.g. CURL_SIZEOF_LONG
As you are using curl headers (which were prepared for x64 arch ) to build mips application, it is unable to find the correct CURL_SIZEOF_LONG macro, leading -1 as a value.
Besides, at some point you will need to link against libcurl library. your current library will never link if you are using mips toolchain. So try cross-compiling curl first and use that version.

I tried almost a hundred things to make this works but nothing seems to be working.
I recently acquire a Mac book pro M1 MAX (so arm64 architecture), system provided by default with clang g++.
I wanted to install boost library. Using homebrew the 1.80 version was installed but I need to work on a project with the 1.65.1 version (I tried compiling my project with 1.80 version and tons of undefined symbols and errors were raised from boost library even if I have all of them, so I'm guessing I need to install the exact same version required)
so I decided to build and compile boost by myself following the boost guide
https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_65_1/more/getting_started/unix-variants.html
Following section 5.1 I tried to use the bootstrap script and this one fails using Darwin toolset. (apparently some Clang warning caused error). I resolve then by changing the boost source code like this :
https://github.com/boostorg/build/commit/48e9017139dd94446633480661e5447c7e0d8b1b
But there's still lot of issues during the compilation
I don't know what to do to be able to compile with clang, I don't even know if this will be compiled for arm64 architecture.
anyway I install gcc compiler and tried with gcc toolset.
./bootstrap --with-toolset=gcc
The bootstraps works but then running the b2 script cause a segmentation fault instantly and on every commands I tried (even the --help options raised an exception...).
Why is building boost so complicated on arm chipset ?
What can I do to build boost (either clang or gcc, arm or cross compiled universal library) ?
I'm desperate at this point.
Thanks for the help.
I tried everything
with clang (darwin)
with gcc
with options to add arm64 as architecture

I install Nim Lang but it not works. I get this errors, how can i fix? (I have completed the setup.)

Probably you only installed the first package from Nim's windows installation page. Note that there are other dependencies mentioned on that page. You may also need:
MingW compiler dependency, installed with finish.exe.
DLLs available on your system, like PCRE or OpenSSL, also available for download.
Alternatively you could try installing Nim using Scoop, which seems to be able to install both Nim and the required compiler.
The Nim compiler creates C code, so to compile your code to binary and run, you should install a C compiler. The default is GCC. In linux and mac, it comes with the system, so I am assuming you are using windows.
I am not a Windos user, but AFAIK you neet to install mingw amd gcc

Using the How To Build GCC 4.8.2 ARM Cross-Compiler, I have installed and setup everything and it works just fine as mentioned in the post i.e., I was able to cross compile a simple C code. But, when I try to compile a simple GMP code, I get this error.
fatal error: gmp.h: No such file or directory
Compilation terminated
How should I fix this? My goal is to compile a gmp program. If possible, refer me to good tutorials.
Thanks!
If you want GMP compiled for the target system (ARM), you must compile it by itself using the newly built cross-compiler, not as a part of building GCC. GMP (along with MPFR, MPC, ISL, CLooG, etc.) being placed in the GCC toplevel source directory simply means that it gets compiled and linked for the cross-compiler you're building.
Since the cross-compiler will run on the host system, GMP will also be compiled for the host system, else linking the library would fail, and you wouldn't get a cross-compiler. It may sound silly, but there are reasons for doing it this way, such as buggy prebuilt packages provided by the package manager on the host system or merely to avoid installing those libraries on the host system when all you want is the cross-compilation toolchain.
I've done everything, and it's payed off.
Trying to compile a mex file from MATLAB using the Windows 7.1 SDK.
~ I've created an compiled my C source code on GCC
~ I've created a MEX file that links and compiles fine via GCC on both Linux and OS X. Does not crash MATLAB, gateway function works fine
~ After much confusion, I switched my dev platform form 64-bit to x86 Win7
~ I've found .dll built files, but they do not link. Linking libs in MATLAB using MATLAB's linker flags will default to .lib, so...
~ I've found--after much googling--simple, pre-compiled x86 GSL .lib's and source files and linked them with MATLAB, eliminating any gsl_blas.h-and-it's-dependencies unrecognized external symbol errors
~ I've re-written every single variable declaration in my source code such that it is C89 standard compatible
~ I've set linker flags appropriately to avoid LIBCMT and any other LIB conflicts
~ I've installed the 2010 and 2012 VC C Runtime libraries
~ I've checked to make sure I have msvcrt.dll and msvcp60.dll in my System files
~ I've followed multiple tutorials online on how supposedly link everything together, most of which had nothing broken links or un-replicable results. I didn't find much to go off of for Cygwin or MinGW.
~ I've tried using the Lcc-win32 2.4.1 compiler
If I was doing basic matrix and vector operations, I'd be set, but unfortunately the various decomposition routines I'm utilizing require parts from the cblas library, which I linked as well, but I get ~30 errors all reporting the same thing...
cblas.lib(ctrsv.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __libm_sse2_sqrt_precise
Here's my MATLAB command.
mex -largeArrayDims -IC:\gsl\include -LC:\gsl\lib -lgsl -lcblas LINKFLAGS="$LINKFLAGS /NODEFAULTLIB:libcmt.lib" file1.c file2.c
So, out of options and frustrated out of my mind, I (naturally) come to stack overflow. Anyone have any idea how to solve this one? The only thing I've foudn on google points to wineHQ errors, not very helpful.
And, if possible, I'd rather not try to compile first on VS201X. I have access to whatever version I need, if necessary, but to me that just seems like a redundant step. Maybe I'm spoiled with Unix-based file system management and linking, though.
It's easy to compile the GSL library under MinGW, in fact the process of compiling from sources is exactly identical to that in Linux. Here are the steps I took:
Setup MinGW for Windows. I am using MinGW-w64 but there is also the popular TDM-GCC distribution which comes with a friendly web-installer.
Obtain GSL sources, and extract the tarball (gsl-1.16.tar.gz is the latest as of now)
Compile as usual, I've used the following commands:
$ ./configure --host=x86_64-w64-mingw32 --prefix=/mingw/local --enable-shared --enable-static
$ make
$ make install
It should take several minutes to finish. Maybe you can enable parallel builds to speed up compilation (make -j)
You'll end up with the necessary files installed in /mingw/local with the usual structure underneath (bin, lib, include).
Finally you can compile an example program with:
$ export PATH=/mingw/local:$PATH
$ gcc `gsl-config --cflags` -o main main.c `gsl-config --libs`
Of course if you prefer using Visual C++ as compiler, people out there have prepared solutions to build GSL using Visual Studio (either manually created project files, or using a build system like CMake and the like). See this question for such projects.
A third option is using Cygwin.
I'm having trouble building the hmatrix library on OS X Lion. Looking at the .cabal file, it requires the gsl library, so I installed it with macports. The .a files are in /opt/local/lib and the .h files are in /opt/local/include/gsl
As suggested here I changed the built-type from Custom to Simple. (without that change I get a similar error).
When I use cabal configure I get the following output:
* Missing C library: gsl
This problem can usually be solved by installing the system package that
provides this library (you may need the "-dev" version). If the library is
already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the flags
--extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where it is.
So I tried cabal --extra-include-dirs=/opt/local/include --extra-lib-dirs=/opt/local/lib configure, but I still get the same error. I can compile and link a c program that includes gsl. What files is cabal looking for? If I have the right files, how do I tell it how to find them?

As an alternative to mac-ports you can use the nix package manager for mac. It does a pretty good job of taking care of the c dependancies for for the libraries available through it. In general I have been more happy with it then any other package manager on mac.
Unfortunately mac(darwin) unlike for linux does not have as many binaries available through nix so installing ghc often means waiting for it to compile.
The commands to install ghc and hmatrix after installation of nix are:
nix-env -iA nixpkgs-unstable.haskellPackages.ghc
nix-env -iA nixpkgs-unstable.haskellPackages.hmatrix
All of the needed dependencies will be taken care of for you.
I just tried it on my macbook pro and hmatrix seems to be working correctly in ghci after trying commands from the first few pages of the tutorial.
I'm not a mac person, but it really sounds like you haven't installed the "-dev" version. For a mac, I suspect you need to install gsl-devel in addition to gsl. If the problem persists, verify that you have libgsl0-dev on your library path.
