Fixes for mingw cross-compilation (C++)
---------------------------------------

                 Key: QPID-2905
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-2905
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: C++ Broker, C++ Client, Code Generator
    Affects Versions: 0.7
            Reporter: Ted Ross
            Assignee: Ted Ross
             Fix For: 0.7


In attempting to cross-compile the Qpid trunk in the MinGW environment, a 
number of build errors were seen.  Attached to this issue is a patch that fixes 
the errors and builds cleanly on Linux/gcc and MS Visual Studio as well.

The classes of error discovered are:

1) Case-sensitivity of file names (i.e. Secure32.lib => secure32.lib)
2) Syntax issues where MSVC is too lenient (semicolon after the closing brace 
of a template function)
3) *_EXTERN on DLL APIs.  MinGW doesn't like externs on in-line functions, 
requires externs on class names.
4) const_case<char*>() needed on LPTSTR arguments in the Windows API
5) Unused function arguments need to be commented out
6) the *_s variants of ::localtime, ::strncpy, ::strerror can't be used

Before I commit, I would appreciate some review and feedback on this patch.
