Tools needed to build?

[1239145]

What tools are needed to build these libraries? I have DevKitPRO & associated files, and I'm running Windows 7 x64. Do I need to have a linux machine? I have a Ubuntu VM.

I was able to build it in Windows 7 x64 and DevKitPro using the information I posted in the two closed issues here.

You can still read the issues, even when they are closed.

That's not exactly what I meant. How can Windows users run Makefiles? I've spent a while trying to get one to work but it never does :/
Most of the time it's syntax errors, but I don't believe that.

To run Makefiles on Windows, you will need to install a Linux-style build setup, like Cygwin or MinGW. This is also necessary to run devkitARM and devkitPPC.

Or just simply use the integrated ubuntu command line on Windows 10 Anniversary Update (with dev mode enabled).
