[U-Boot] uboot under cygwin

[Stas Desyatnlkov]

Hi All,

My first post here. Sorry if it was asked before and I couldn't find it.

I need to build uboot for my own board based on 5121ads design from Freescale. My board is different from the reference as it has no CPLD, so I have to change a few things in the uboot code.

I use Windows based CodeWarrior and USB tap to burn images on the board. The easiest thing for me is using cygwin so I won't have to copy binary images between OSes. Tried to compile uboot on cygwin with numerous errors mostly conflicting types in uboot tools.

So I guess my question is - does anyone have any success building uboot under cygwin?

Here is a sample of my compiler output
