to compile the development branch on my NT box.
I have managed to create the initial configure file on a Linux box and
ftp'ed the whole thing over to the NT box.
automake and autoconf seem to be either broken or I have some problems
that I cant figure out.
Anyway, after getting the xforms library from Stevens ftp site
(www.xforms.com seems to be down right now) I managed to get over the
initial configuration step but when the make step gets to compiling
mathed I get a gazillion error messages,
of which I include the first lines here:
It looks like the X11 header files are not ANSI C++ compliant and
therefore should be included in/with an
extern "C" {} construct. Otoh when I give that a quick shot it doesnt
change anything either.
So what I did then was to look into the Xlib.h file and I found that the
function prototypes have a statement like
#if NeedFunctionPrototypes
bla bla bla
#endif
but this seems not the problem, there are function prototypes that do
not declare a return value and that _is_ a problem for an ANSI C++
compiler.
Is there an easy fix for this ?
Thanks a lot for any kinda hints.
