Hi, here is the new patch set that makes it possible to compile Babeltrace on MinGW32. I have taken your previous comments into account wherever possible.
This patch set requires the patch I sent earlier, titled " [Babeltrace PATCH 01/01] Move strerror_r to compat directory " , and should be applied on top of that. Some notes: MinGW, especially MinGW32, is very lacking in library functions. (Indeed, 'minimal'). Some functions that are found in Microsoft Visual Studio run time libraries are not accessible in MinGW32. These include any *_s functions such as strerror_s, gmtime_s, localtime_s and strtok_s; also strnlen is conspicuously missing. No byte-swapping function, either. It would have been possible to link to those functions dynamically, finding the function address from the DLL etc, but I'm not doing it, because in the end, my goal is to create a statically linked tool, with minimal dependencies to shared libraries. That is why, instead of using a well-known library function, I have resorted to implementing one on my own. I'm still open for any comments that you might have.
