Hi everyone, I have developed an Addin for Calc wich provide CAS<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_algebra_system>(A *computer algebra system* (*CAS*) is a software program that facilitates symbolic mathematics. The core functionality of a CAS is manipulation of mathematical expressions in symbolic form.) I've used OOo sdk + http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/CompleteAddInfor help. And I've used giac<http://www-fourier.ujf-grenoble.fr/%7Eparisse/giac_compile.html>CAS library. I've almost finished my extension under Linux_64 and I want to compile my Addin under windows.
My problem : The Visual C++ recommanded under windows is unable to include the giac library (running with cygwin under windows, a giac.dll is available, compiled with cygwin). Headers file of giac.h require cygwin header files (sys/times.h, etc...) My questions : 1) Is it possible to use VC++ and to include this giac library ? 2) Is it possible to use cygwin to compile my addin under windows ? If I can compile the CppComponent included en SDK (/opt/ openoffice.org/basis3.1/sdk/examples/DevelopersGuide/Components/CppComponent) then I can compile mine because the makefile is slightly modified to include giac library. Do you have an issue for me ? Thank's a lot for help. -- Christophe Devalland
