actually they're both platform independent; it's true that they rely

cygwin and mingw/msys for that. Indeed there's a windows build of
source-highlight that I did with mingw:

Actually I want to build it on my own. I need a mingw build
compatible with the mingw Version of Qt 4.5 and a Visual Studio build
for Version 2005, 2008 and soon 2010.
So what I really need is a solution to build the libary on windows on
my own.
What I do not understand in the first place is how I run the
configure script without sh.
Hi Matthias
if you want to build it yourself then you also need a shell to run
configure, and if you use mingw you'd need msys (which provides a
shell and other tools); but to build source-highlight you also need
the boost library for mingw.
Thus, if you haven't already setup such an environment mingw/msys it
might take some time.
I was trying to set up a system with msys, but did not have success so
far. However what bothers me most is the compilation with msvc.
The only build step I could find is this one:
http://folti.blogs.balabit.com/2009/08/compiling-autoconfmake-using-sources.html
which is really a way to fight around all problems of autoconf on
non.unix platform issues and not a clean solution.
I wonder how difficult building of source-highlight really is. I think
putting all cpp+h files in a qmake project costs me only a few minutes.
Only the boost libary might be a problem since it does not build as a
shared libary on mingw.
