I'm compiling WxWidgets for Windows using the following command line:
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc BUILD=release SHARED=1 -j6
The last parameter (-j) is used to speed up the compilation by running multiple jobs in parallel, in my case making full use of my 6-core processor. A single-threaded build normally takes very long.
However, I get the following output when hitting Enter:

Then... If I try a third time, the compilation finishes successfully.
Question: Is it ok to follow this procedure to build WxWidgets in parallel, or is there a possibility that it will lead to problems when using the compiled binaries later on?
Unfortunately there is indeed a bug in MSW makefiles with missing dependencies of the various libraries on setup_h target. It should be safe to do make setup_h first and then make -jN.
Alternatively, you could build using configure as explained in this old but still valid post, then just make -jN works perfectly fine.

I am trying to compile a simple C++ program with CMake on Ubuntu 18.04, but all of my CMake projects fails when I run the make command.
Below is a minimum working example.
The directory structure looks like this:
- project directory
|-build
|-main.cpp
|-CMakeLists.txt
main.cpp
int main(void)
{
return 0;
}
CMakeLists.txt
cmake_minimum_required (VERSION 3.1)
project(Test-Project)
add_executable(a
main.cpp
)
target_compile_options(a
PUBLIC -Wall -o -std=c++11
)
Building
cd build
cmake ../ # this works without any error
make # this fails

I get this error when try to compile any CMake based program on the system.
However, if I just used g++ directly to compile the program, it compiles without any complaints.
For example:
g++ ../main.cpp
compiles the program, and runs the program without any errors.

Despite the error message about absent .d file seems to be internal to CMake (such files are used for collect header dependencies generated by the compiler), its usual reason is specifying some output-controlling compiler options in the CMakeLists.txt.
In your case it is -o option which damages the command line generated by CMake. CMake by itself uses this option for specify object file which will be created as a result of the compilation. So adding another -o is wrong.
I have a Windows 10 PC where I installed Veins 5.0 following the tutorial and therefore I have installed OMNeT++ 5.6.1. I have also INET 4.2.0 that has been installed after opening the OMNeT IDE for the first time. I can open successfully the simulations from OMNeT++, Veins and INET. Nevertheless, when it comes to build the veins_project of veins/subprojects I get the following error:

Does anyone experience something similar?
It's clear the problem is in your command line
clang++ -c -std=c++11 ... -IC:/Universidad/2019-2020 (Master)/1B ...
Don't put parentheses or spaces in folder names. It's only likely to lead to confusion.

Thanks
I looked at the makefiles for the FingerJetFXOSE project here:
https://github.com/FingerJetFXOSE/FingerJetFXOSE
The makefiles do not support Cygwin. The README says that Windows is supported, but I suspect they mean a Visual-Studio-based build after a manual source import.
I think you either have to compile on GNU/Linux, or compile this code without the upstream makefiles.
I am new to Linux environments, and trying to install a bioinformatics package (vcftools - https://vcftools.github.io/examples.html). For some reason I can compile without a problem in a Cygwin environment, other colleagues have installed the package without a glitch, but i get an error (per below) if I try to compile in an Ubuntu environment in a VirtualBox on the same computer. I get the following error. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to resolve this error?

error with make
Basically what the makefile does is automating the calls to the compiler.
Thus, the output from the makefile is similar to usual compile errors you get, compiling a source file from within the command line.
The important line from the error log above is:
vcf_file.cpp: In constructor ‘vcf_file::vcf_file()’:
**vcf_file.cpp:25:13: **error: cannot convert ‘bool’** to ‘gzFile {aka gzFile_s*}’ in assignment**
gzvcf_in = false;
gzvcf_in is of type pointer to gzFile_s. Assigning a bool variable to a pointer type won't compile.
Thus, the error message. Replace, inside the vcf_file.cpp, false with the pointer literal std::nullptr or the macro NULL and re-run the makefile.
Btw. I checked the vcf_file.cpp file in the github repo from vcf. They do not contain the line leading to the above error. May you have an outdated / modified version, introducing the compiler error.
I am trying to set up Clion on my pc. I tried both Clion and mingw and I get the same error when I point to the tool chain location. I install and uninstall all the required packages for both following the instructions and I can't get it working.
Anyone else has run into this set up issue?

CMake will not be able to correctly generate this project.
Cygwin's C++ compiler (or probably linker) can't find cyglto_plugin.dll which can be part of several Cygwin packages. I'm not sure how Clion works - whether it requires Cygwin to be installed or brings it in its own installer. If it requires that user installs Cygwin - verify that you have installed appropriate package and that mentioned DLL is in place.
I removed all the packages and reinstalled them. I think when you have the options to download it allows you to download multiple versions. Which is what i did and then it causes a conflict. issue was resolved.
