I've never tested under Cygwin emacs, but there are lots of problems
that come the way it treats DOS paths in a UNIX like way.
Support for XEmacs, GNU Emacs, then (X)Emacs built for cygwin starts
to get out of hand.
In your own environment, you could start using things like `cygpath'
to make these path conversions but I think you're time is better spent
using the GNU build of Emacs under NT.

With the standard build file, it fails with

This fails at

If the last arg is replaced with
<arg value="(message \"%S\" (if (featurep 'xemacs)
'true 'false))"/>
it gets further, since the command that gets to emacs is (message
"%S" ...) instead of (message %S ...).
When I fix that, it fails with
$ ant

build.el exists and is readable. However, the cygwin version of
emacs can't handle the windows version of the path.

Thanks Troy.

I'm trying to make some changes to JDE, but I'm running into
problems just using emacs. I'm using cygwin on Windows NT.
I was able to get the emacs that comes with cygwin to run using
XWin as an X server. However, I think I recall that that version
doesn't interface well with JDE. In particular, the build file has
quoting issues when execing emacs. If I fix that, it complains
that it can't load a window's style path.
I've also tried using the version from http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/
. That fails to create a window and just hangs at the command
prompt.
I managed to get this working on my work computer years ago with a
non-cygwin version, but I can't seem to get it to work on my home
laptop (which is where I can access the JDE svn repository.)
What configuration are people using? Any suggestions on what I can
try to figure out the problems?
