kandi X-RAY | wget2 Summary

wget2 is a C library typically used in Networking, HTTP applications. wget2 has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Weak Copyleft License and it has low support. You can download it from GitLab.

GNU Wget2 is the successor of GNU Wget, a file and recursive website downloader. Designed and written from scratch it wraps around libwget, that provides the basic functions needed by a web client. Wget2 works multi-threaded and uses many features to allow fast operation. In many cases Wget2 downloads much faster than Wget1.x due to HTTP2, HTTP compression, parallel connections and use of If-Modified-Since HTTP header. GNU Wget2 is licensed under GPLv3+. Libwget is licensed under LGPLv3+.

How to build linux tools via MingW64 in 2021?

QUESTION

How to build linux tools via MingW64 in 2021?

Asked 2022-Feb-12 at 13:24

I'm trying to follow this example to build wget2: https://gnutoolchains.com/building/

I've installed x86_64-8.1.0-win32-seh-rt_v6-rev0 preset (?) and first tried to build old version of wget1, but I've reached dead end. There is no way to run ./configure to create build target rules. Did I install something wrong? How I'm supposed to know what exactly is to install? Is it each new preset for each application I want to build? How I'm supposed to handle the insane list of requirements of wget2:

https://gitlab.com/gnuwget/wget2#build-requirements

And lastly - why is it so jank? Is it by design?

There is a way to run ./configure on Windows. You need MSYS2 for that, which will give you a bash shell and the tools needed by ./configure.

MSYS2 comes with a package manager (pacman) which allows you to install a more recent MinGW-w64.
