wp34s building calc.bin

[karl]

hi,
i am trying to build calc.bin for wp34s from source.
i installed minGW, yagarto, perl and svn.
i have also read the following pages:
http://www.wiki4hp.com/doku.php?id=34s:h...d_emulator
http://www.wiki4hp.com/doku.php?id=34s:windows_7_64bit


when i type mingw32-make in cmd it gives the following error.


tools/wp34s_asm.pl -pp -op tools/wp34s.op -c -o xrom.c xrom_pre.wp34s
// WP 34S assembly preprocessor enabled: '-pp'
// Opcode map source: tools/wp34s.op (specified)
// Opcode SVN version: -- unknown --

-v3 -xrom -e2so -sd 4 -colour_mode 0
Makefile:429: recipe for target 'xrom_labels.h' failed
mingw32-make: *** [xrom_labels.h] Error 255

any help would be much appreciated.
i am using win7 64bit.

I had similar problems with the perl implementation coming with mingw. Try ActivePerl instead and make sure it is in the PATH before the mingw binary..

Why not share how you did so, to help other folks reading the thread and trying to solve the same problem?
