Since I can't seem to find any other posts in regards to this... what code base are you trying to compile on cygwin?

| Your question is rather vague so here is the best answer I can give...
Step 1: make a file called Makefile in the same directory as the source files, copy from an existing Makefile if necessary
Step 2: insert all relevant .cpp files into the makefile
Step 3: type 'make'
Step 4: get a cup of coffee/tea/whatever while waiting :-)
If you want a more precise answer you'll have to ask a more precise question.
Compiling on Cygwin is basically like compiling on any *nix system, except that Cygwin has a few of its own particularities - but then again, so does every system. |

| For a simple example, just put your source into the appropriate .c or .cpp file (.c for C and .cpp for C++) and type:
gcc test.c -o test
This compiles the file test.c and produces the program "test". You can then run it by typing:
./test
