Building OpenVPN GUI from Source using BUILD.rst instructions

Post by trmontgomery » Mon Jul 24, 2017 10:08 pm

I'm trying to build the OpenVPN GUI from source in an effort to customize it. I download the source code from Github and used the BUILD.rst instructions for building with Cygwin. After using "make" I get the following errors:

Code: Select all

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/make  all-am
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I.   -D_UNICODE -DWIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN -D_WIN32_WINNT=_WIN32_WINNT_VISTA -DWINVER=_WIN32_WINNT -municode -g -O2 -pedantic -Wall -Wextra -MT main.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/main.Tpo -c -o main.o main.c
clang: error: unknown argument: '-municode'
make[1]: *** [main.o] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2 
I am new to creating and debugging MakeFiles. Has anyone else gotten this error or have any suggestions on where to research for a solution?
