Dear Andrew, the single place for specifying the version numbers is configure.ac, from this nsversion.h filled with values. The tar-distributions of naviserver contain nsversion.h with the right version numbers, so for porting from tar this is a non-issue. The version numbers do not change so often. I guess, the basic intention was to generate this file under some unix flavor or (under cygwin if one wants to go this way) and copy it then to the native windows build tree.
The bigger issue is probably to keep either the entries of include/nsconfig.h in sync with the windows build (where HAVE_CONFIG_H is not defined), or to configure a version of nsconfig.h manually for the capabilities of a native windows build environment. -g Am 24.09.14 01:35, schrieb Andrew Piskorski: > Naviserver's include/nsversion.h is auto-generated from nsversion.h.in > when running configure (or autoconf).
