archutil error in win build?

[Docsonic]

When I try to build the latest svn (22396) under 32-bit windows, I get an error -

Make error line 413: executeCommand : could not create process : the system cannot find the file specified.
Make error line 413: <staticlib> problem:

When I look at the build.xml file, line 413 says -

<staticlib command="${archutil}ar crsv" file="${build}/libinkscape.a">

I was going to change the value of archutil but I am not sure what it should be set to?
Currently it is set to -


 <property name="archutil"      value=""/>

Any ideas?
Thanks,

Tony

this is if you build on Linux and need to reach the mingw binaries.
The cross tools are named like mingw32-gcc etc. So it will replace the
names for you.

btw. did you followed the instructions closely?
Currently only the gcc-4.2-dw2 is supported. It looks that you don't
have the ar command .

HTH, Adib.

It certainly did -
For some reason ar either wasn't required before or it disappeared from my system. I copied ar back into my mingw/bin folder and all is well.

Thanks,
