MinGW: Failed to build static lib undefined reference to '__imp_pcre2_regcomp'
#243
Comments

The failure is when trying to link pcre2posix_test, a new test program that was added about 6 months ago, which fits with your timing. I don't know anything about MinGW or Dockerfiles. It seems as if it is failing to include the pcre2posix library when linking this test, but I have no idea why, because, needless to say, the ./autogen.sh; ./configure; make sequence works on my Linux box. The new test program is in the 10.42 release, and we've had no other reports of this failure (but maybe few people do static builds, though the pre-release test script does include a static-only build). |

Thanks @PhilipHazel, that was hint enough to make a quick fix 😄 |
the CI does a static build for windows but configuring with cmake and that seems to be working fine, but probably just because of pure luck, since it also uses the Microsoft compiler that doesn't support the visibility attribute. it seems the problem is wider, since setting the visibility attribute (when supported by the compiler) will conflict with setting the correct "magic" needed in Windows to link with the right type of library. |

Thanks for fixing the issue 👍 |
The issue
pcre2is a dependency of GNU Wget2.We have two MinGW CI images to build deps like
pcre2, one for dynamic linking and one for static linking.The static build of
pcre2fails since ~6 months.The build command sequence is
(Please see the Dockerfile below for the ENV variables set)
