[Ekiga-devel-list] Win32 please test

[Michael Rickmann <mrickma gwdg de>]

Hello everybody,
I have a new Windows version of Ekiga head based on attached minimal but 
rather effective patches. you find it in my directory at 
http://wwwuser.gwdg.de/~mrickma/ekiga/ . As to the patches:
1) ekiga_linkmagic.diff : It allows the linker to chose WinMain as the 
entry point. Result is that the C-library is initialized properly and 
Ekiga exits gracefully, at least on XP. Additionally Ekiga can be 
compiled with the -mwindows flag as Michael Cronenworth suggested.
2) The option to start Ekiga on login which was given in the installer 
resulted in a non responsive icon in the Windows system tray. You could 
just quit or ask for help. Ekiga has its own option to start minimized 
which works very well under Windows.
Please test whether the new attempt works for you. I would like to know 
whether Ekiga really shuts down on Vista or whether it has to be killed 
with the task manager.
Regards
Michael
