Description :
I have compiled and installed Frama-C from source with MinGW, specifying the installation path with --prefix to ./configure.
Configuration, compilation and installation runs OK.
$ frama-c -print-plugin-path returns the correct result.
Still, the program fails to detect the installed dynamic plugins. For example, $frama-c -help does not list the plugins as expected.
It works OK when the environment variable FRAMAC_PLUGIN is set.
Additional Information :
How to reproduce
Install MS Windows SP3.
- Install MinGW from here (chose developer installation) ftp://ftp.ntua.gr/mirror/mingw/Installer/mingw-get-inst/mingw-get-inst-20110802/ be sure to follow the instructions from there: http://www.mingw.org/wiki/Getting_Started
- Install ocaml http://protz.github.com/ocaml-installer/
- Download Frama-C source code: http://frama-c.com/download/frama-c-Nitrogen-20111001.tar.gz
- decompress for ex. in C:\Documents\frama-c-Nitrogen
- Open the MinGW console and cd in the directory where you decompressed the source $ cd /c/Documents/frama-c-Nitrogen
- Configure the source, especially the place where you want to install your program for me: $ ./configure --prefix=/c/Programme/frama-c-Nitrogen
- Check the configure output. You should get warning that theorem provers and graphical interface are missing, but no other warnings.
- Build and install: $ make && make install
Expected results
$ frama-c -help should list "report", "aorai", "wp" among others as available plugins
Actual results
- These plugins are unknown.
- The command line: $ FRAMAC_PLUGIN=/install/path/lib/frama-c/plugins frama-c -help shows the expected result
