Aldo, i'm still trying to fool around with cygwin and mingw, but at first have to build a new mingw-perl 5.6.1, because with this it will be much easier. (it can use the msvc headers and libs, and not the cygwin/w32api) but at first I have the solve the current cygwin perl-5.6.1-1 problem with gdbm. some notes: ctl3d.h will not work. I added a lot of PL_ prefixes so far, but it's still not ready. gcc is MUCH stricter than cl, it barfs with a lot of errors so far. and some constants are still not defined in the cygwin w32api. sample: GUI.xs: In function `void DrawSplitter(HWND__ *)': GUI.xs:734: ANSI C++ forbids implicit conversion from `void *' in assignment GUI.xs:735: ANSI C++ forbids implicit conversion from `void *' in assignment GUI.xs: In function `LRESULT InteractiveGraphicMsgLoop(HWND__ *, unsigned int, u nsigned int, long int)': GUI.xs:1710: warning: negative value `-1' passed as argument 3 of `PostMessageA( HWND__ *, unsigned int, unsigned int, long int)' GUI.xs: In function `LRESULT WindowMsgLoop(HWND__ *, unsigned int, unsigned int, long int)': GUI.xs:1829: warning: NULL used in arithmetic GUI.xs:1843: warning: NULL used in arithmetic GUI.xs:2646: warning: NULL used in arithmetic GUI.xs:2676: warning: negative value `-1' passed as argument 3 of `PostMessageA( HWND__ *, unsigned int, unsigned int, long int)' GUI.xs: In function `LRESULT MsgLoop(HWND__ *, unsigned int, unsigned int, long int)': GUI.xs:2724: warning: NULL used in arithmetic GUI.xs:2794: warning: negative value `-1' passed as argument 3 of `PostMessageA( HWND__ *, unsigned int, unsigned int, long int)' GUI.xs: In function `void ParseWindowOptions(SV **, SV **, long int, long int, i nt, tagPERLCREATESTRUCT *)': GUI.xs:3100: `SS_PATHELLIPSIS' undeclared (first use this function) GUI.xs:3101: `SS_ENDELLIPSIS' undeclared (first use this function) ... -- Reini Urban http://xarch.tu-graz.ac.at/autocad/news/faq/autolisp.html
