Hi Michael,
That's brilliant. Yes, me and Albert have discussed MSVC support with the
author of libsndfile and he wasn't keen. I then spent an hour or so trying
to do it myself, got stuck on some wierd struct definition in the ogg code
where I agreed with the compiler that it didn't make any sense and gave up.
We should talk to him about getting some of this stuff pushed upstream. Even
if he doesn't want to maintain an msvc version, maybe we can push everything
but a few controversial things into trunk and then maintain them ourselves
out of tree. I'm willing to bet we aren't the only project who wants this.
Although as we've learned, not so many people are building with msvc for
windows in the open source world.
Albert will be very happy about this too.
