Okay, yes, thanks... for now, I will not try more on Cygwin... building is completely broken it seems in that environment with the GNU compiler. (With the MingGW compiler on Cywgwin and the mingw makefile it does work but does not solve my character encoding issues.)

Hi Alex,

Thank you, I was able to fix the swab issue, but much more compile errors after that... so it seams it is rather nasty to compile with Cygwin. I tried different compilers and versions but have not been very succesfull...

I think this comes from here: https://github.com/LibRaw/LibRaw/blob/b31fa58eea272c4ba67ccdbd527f329a5a...

_WIN32 is defined even on Cygwin, but I guess one shouldn't set LIBRAW_WIN32_CALLS on Cygwin; as a consequence, unistd.h is not included from internal/defines.h: https://github.com/LibRaw/LibRaw/blob/master/internal/defines.h#L50-L65

Any reason you're building for Cygwin, and not native MinGW instead?

Hi support,
More details, I am using the GNU compiler Collection c++ gcc-g++ version 11.2.0-1.
Whatever i try, the swab function causes the problem: not declared in this scope.
Thanks,
Mabula

Hello Alex,

I use Capture One 21 (I am aware that 22 should support the Sony A7IV).
And I use Affinity Photo 1.10.4.1198 (Photoshop replacement). Affinity support says their software depends on LibRAW for camera support... Yet, FastRawViewer 2.0 already seems to support the camera already.
And I use darktable 3.8.0 (both Windows and Linux).

Thanks, Eric.

Hello, any idea when the Sony A7IV will be added to the library?
It turns out some of the editing software I use, used LibRAW to read the raw files. Until that is updated, I can't edit my raw files in those...
Thank you!

Thanks - the rawpy folks mentioned the terminal output all looks fine, but that perhaps I should try again and enable the RPi RAW support. When compiling LibRaw I made the folder ~/Desktop/libraw into which I cloned the LibRaw repo.

- Can I remove that folder and try compiling again, or were LibRaw files installed elsewhere that need to be removed?
- In the future, what folder do you recommend I clone the LibRaw repo into?

Thank you for the reply. I followed the instructions (below) provided by rawpy (which uses LibRaw), as suggested by Iliah Borg (see further up for this discussion). Should I instead follow the LibRaw provided instructions?

git clone https://github.com/LibRaw/LibRaw.git libraw
git clone https://github.com/LibRaw/LibRaw-cmake.git libraw-cmake
cd libraw
git checkout 0.20.0
cp -R ../libraw-cmake/* .
cmake .
sudo make install

Hi - I just wanted to confirm I installed from source correctly. Below is the terminal output resulting from my cmake command. As you'll note, it indicates a few files were not found. Additionally, can I remove the ~/Desktop/libraw folder I created to clone the libraw repo?

LibRaw works fine on Apple M1 ARM chip

> it seems LibRaw can be installed on an RPi

Why "seems", I checked with my RPi before posting.

Which method of installation to use depends on your needs.

Generally if you want a package (rawpy in your case), it's a good idea to follow the instructions accompanying the package, especially when those instructions refer to a particular (not the latest) version of a library. You will need to install git and cmake,

> sudo apt update
> sudo apt upgrade
> sudo apt install git
> sudo apt install cmake

After LibRaw is installed the way rawpi instructions suggest, check

> echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH

If it's empty, and you want to use LibRaw independently / check the installation:

> LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
> export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
