I was wondering about that. How will you be able to verify that you got a Win32 port that at least compiles, if you're merging two different Win32 approaches into the code on BSD? I don't expect that to work at all. To Hannu: the Windows port we did here depends on MS VC++ features like the ability to specify in the project to substitute header files. I don't know much about MingW and if you can do things like that with it. Our port is a real 100% pure Win32 one without any portability crap like cygwin. I don't think that's a big problem, since the binary results of a MS VC compile are redistributable AFAIK. And you'd need VC++ only if you want to do backend development under Windows, and who want's that (Katie for sure, but that's another story ;-P ) Jan -- #======================================================================# # It's easier to get forgiveness for being wrong than for being right. # # Let's break this rule - forgive me. # #================================================== JanWieck@Yahoo.com #
