[ADMB Users] building 64 bit mingw libraries for ADMB

[dave fournier]

I recently had trouble with the windows installer for the 64 bit mingw 
C++ compiler for windows.

Here is what worked for me to do a 64 bit compile ADMB source.

I put everything in c:\  because I hate long directory names (with spaces).

Get the source from

http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win64/Personal%20Builds/mingw-builds/4.9.0/threads-posix/seh/x86_64-4.9.0-release-posix-seh-rt_v3-rev2.7z

In the directory c:\

extract the source with 7zip

you will get the files in c:\mingw64

Add

             c:\admb;c:\mingw64\bin

to your PATH environment string.  (Done with control panel.)

Download ADMB source from

http://admb-project.googlecode.com/files/admb-11.1.zip

Again in c:\ unzip the code.

You will have a directory admb. Change to that directory.

Now go down one directory to src
Add the line

MINGW_HOME=c:\mingw64

to the file GNUmakefile

Go up one directory to admb again.

Type

     mingw32-make.exe

This will build the admb 64 bit libraries.
