error: failed to run custom build command for `onig_sys v61.1.0`

I am compiling the rust program https://github.com/trishume/syntect by running make packs. However it throws the error:

$ make packs
cargo run --example gendata -- synpack testdata/Packages assets/default_newlines.packdump assets/default_nonewlines.packdump
   Compiling onig_sys v61.1.0
error: failed to run custom build command for `onig_sys v61.1.0`
process didn't exit successfully: `D:\syntect\target\debug\build\onig_sys-523c993a9ee13532\build-script-build` (exit code: 101)

Why the https://github.com/kkos/oniguruma is not compiling?

oniguruma\src\regenc.c(32): error C2099: initializer is not a constant — that's why. For whatever reason, that line of C code is not compatible with your C compiler. — Shepmaster

I downloaded the oniguruma and run the make_win32 and it compiled successfully, with the same compiler (VS 2015). But somehow, when Rust is doing it, it is not working. — Evandro Coan
– Evandro Coan, Commented Mar 17, 2017 at 19:17
@user: Might be a different set of flags. Tracking down the line of the error I get github.com/kkos/oniguruma/blob/master/src/regenc.c#L32, where ONIG_ENCODING_DEFAULT aliases ONIG_ENCODING_ASCII which is defined as the address of a global. It's indeed not a constant in C (see stackoverflow.com/questions/3025050), so maybe you compiled in C++ mode? — Matthieu M.
– Matthieu M., Commented Mar 17, 2017 at 19:42
Thanks. Thought I do not know how I compiled (I just called make_win32.bat), but I found on the issue github.com/trishume/syntect/issues/48, they said is it just because onig_sys doesn't build on Windows, which is reported on the issue github.com/rust-onig/rust-onig/issues/35, Therefore what you said seem to be the way to fix the onig_sys compiling on Windows. — Evandro Coan
– Evandro Coan, Commented Mar 17, 2017 at 19:51
onigurama builds with msys2, you can just use the msys2 version — Rainb

Oniguruma doesn't build with CMake on Windows MSVC. This was an open issue in the onig_sys crate.

I've now updated the way the onig_sys crate builds so it should work with MSVC now.

To update to this fixed version make sure the Cargo.toml dependency for onig is set to either 1.2 or 1.2.1:

[dependencies]
onig = "1.2"
