I believe the issue here is not the master's tip. That's line-ending issue. Before I sent the original patch here, I had created it on top of 'ce5078c9' commit. This was and currently is the head. After I had got your reply, I downloaded the DIFF from my own e-mail and tried to apply the patch to the head by myself: $ git pull origin master $ patch -u -p 1 < 0001-Add-...diff $ git apply 0001-Add-...diff where the `patch` warned about CRs in the DIFF, but applied the patch; and `git-apply(1)` failed to patch the files with "trailing whitespaces" error. Therefore, I modified both two last commands to: $ tr -d '\r' < 0001-Add-...diff | patch -u -p1 $ tr -d '\r' < 0001-Add-...diff | git apply - And now any of the commands patches the files successfully. That all is really strange because I didn't change my workflow, so I sent the patch as usual: I created a patch using `git-format-patch(1)` and then `git-imap-send(1)` it. `git-format-patch(1)` creates a file with LF as line-ending. After I send the file using `git-imap-send(1)` (with msys2 or Arch Linux's git), I get a new e-mail in the ``Drafts'' with CRLF as line-endings in the patch part of the e-mail (CRLF in an e-mail is okay, as far as I know, but may be I'm wrong). I'm sorry, but now I really don't know how to send the patch with LF line-endings, so you can apply my patch... I rechecked my old patches and other people's patches in this mailing list -- it looks like they all have CRLF as line-endings. I'm totally confused now. > The x86 import library was absent Yes, that's my fault. > I have attached an (albeit untested) one, generated using 'gendef' > from the x86 DLL. Thanks a lot! I'll add your fix to the next version of the patch. But I also didn't tested it because I have no i686-w64-mingw32 toolset. This is actually the reason why I didn't create the DEF file for x86 library by myself. Thanks a lot for review. I will send the new patch by the next message. Hope it could be applied well. -- Yours truly, Ruslan Garipov <ruslanngaripov at gmail dot com>. ---------------------------------------------- MinGW-w64 developer, with write after approval GEDKeeper collaborator _______________________________________________ Mingw-w64-public mailing list Mingw-w64-public@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mingw-w64-public
