Re: [gnet] Gnet on cygwin

[nalves equifax com br]

I found in another mailing list that I should install a port of bind to
cygwin, so I would have the headers/libs that are missing (nameser.h, for
instance). I'm trying to do this, but I'm having some problems during the
link stage of my compilation. Do you know this procedure?

Hi Nelio,

In your case you need to use -mno-cygwin and -mms-bitfields flags with GCC.
Otherwise it will not work as you can see. This is because you want to link
to msvcrt.dll not the cygwin dll and to also deal with struct field
alignment.

See Tor's website: http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/

I recommend you use the glib files off the GNet website until Tor  creates
the new glib-2.2.3 zip files. Also I would recommend using a checkout of
GNet from CVS if possible. The Windows GNet zip files will be updated after
glib-2.2.3 zips are created.
