Paul Joseph Davis commented on COUCHDB-406:
-------------------------------------------
Jan, what's the build failure you're getting? Is it still trying to compile
couchspawnkillable_win.c? It looks like that patch doesn't include the renaming
the kill script. But it basically does what you're saying, make
couchspawnkillable a target that is built on both platforms, in the case of
*nix I just copy couchspawnkillable.sh to couchspawnkillable.
If its not that link failure, can you paste the traceback?

> Key: COUCHDB-406
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-406
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Build System
> Environment: windows, trunk
> Reporter: Mark Hammond
> Attachments: windows_build.patch, windows_build_2.patch,
> windows_build_3.patch, windows_build_4.patch
>
>
> Attaching a patch to get things building on Windows, including docs. As
> noted in the docs, we reuse as much of the couch and erlang build processes
> as possible. This patch leaves a functioning couch on Windows - with some
> polish left to be done, but working and tests passing as well as expected -
> and still works on linux.
> Includes a couple of new files - couchspawnkillable_win.c from COUCHDB-374
> (while I will close), and a couchdb.bat.tpl file which generates a suitable
> .bat file at 'make install' time.
> Note this patch makes no attempt to create an installer - it just creates a
> functioning tree suitable for zipping up, or for future consumption by an
> installer.
