I have followed the instruction on the “GMP Install Instruction for Windows Platform”. I could build a 32bit version of GMP which can be used for Visual Studio.
./configure --prefix=${gmp-install} --disable-static --enable-shared
make
make install
Then I installed mingw_w64 and msys on another machine (which is running 64bit Windows) and rerun the commands.
./configure was run without any problem. However, when I run “make”, I got the following.
m4 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -D__GMP_WITHIN_GMP -DOPERATION_add_n -DDLL_EXPORT -DPIC add_n.asm >tmp-add_n.s

If I used “gmake” instead, the following error was shown.
m4 gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -D__GMP_WITHIN_GMP -DOPERATION_add_n -DDLL_EXPORT -DPIC add_n.asm >tmp-add_n.s

I am not familiar with C++ make. Do I need to specify any flag in order to notify mingw_w64 that I am building for 64bit? Thanks.
I have tried the following. The library can be built successfully.
