I cant say that I have compiled for a pure MingW environment, but I would pull the Cygnus libpthread for win32, specify that for thread and it should move the build ahead.

I'm running MinGW with MSYS and msysDTK, not CYGWIN. Searching the list archive didn't provide a solution, so here's a summury of what I tried. 1. I found that configure can't figure out whether threads are available. It stops with an error, but I can avoid that by specifying --with-threads=no on the command line. 2. Then compilation stops, because the type int64_t is not recognized. I can cure that too, by defining int64_t as __int64 in config.h. 3. I can't easily get past the third hurdle, which is the compiler complaining that the thread() object does not exist. I can't find an easy cure for that, so I'm stuck here. I can think of several options, but maybe someone else has tried this before, and give me directions: 1. Is --with-threads=no the right choice? 2. I use the latest versions of MinGW and MSYS. Would it help if I upgrade the compiler? I prefer not to upgrade to cygwin, because I like the MinGW philosophy better. thanks, Enno -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
