GHDL with mcode backend build on Windows with GCC/GNAT (MinGW)ΒΆ

On Windows with MinGW, GHDL is configured by configure and build by make.

  • First, GHDL needs to be configured. It is common to specify a PREFIX (installation directory like /usr/local or /opt/ghdl). Without any other option, configure select mcode as backend.
  • Next, make starts the compilation process.
  • Finally, make install installs GHDL into the installation directory specified by PREFIX.

Example:

cd <ghdl>
mkdir build
cd build
../configure --prefix=PREFIX
make
make install
