Compiling Xfree86

Compiling Xfree86

[Michael O'Melia]

Here is an example of an error that I get when trying to compile Xfree.  It
seems to be the only error type that I have left (albeit, all over the
place!)

rm -f junk.o
gcc -c -O2  -Wall  -I../../lib/X11 -I../../include/extensions  -I../.. -I../
../exports/include  -D__i386__ -DWIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN -DX_LOCALE -D_MT -D_X86
_ -D__STDC__ -DNO_TCP_H -D__CYGWIN__ -D_XOPEN_SOURCE -D_REENTRANT -D_POSIX_C
_SOURCE=199309L -D_BSD_SOURCE -D_SVID_SOURCE -D_GNU_SOURCE -DX_SOURCE   -DFU
NCPROTO=15 -DNARROWPROTO       -D_DLL junk.c
junk.c:2: conflicting types for `_cygwin_dll_entry'
junk.c:2: previous declaration of `_cygwin_dll_entry'
make: *** [junk.o] Error 1


Did I miss something in the cygwuin.cf file or something?

Thanks, Mike

Since you did not include junk.c in your post, I can only guess.  I
think that you are having a similar problem to what I encountered while
building PostgreSQL 7.0.2 on Cygwin 1.1.4.  See the following for more
details:

    http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2000-09/msg00791.html

I resolved my problem by replacing /usr/include/cygwin/cygwin_dll.h with
one from the development snapshots.  I used the following successfully:

    http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/snapshots/cygwin-src-20000918.tar.bz2/winsup/cygwin/include/cygwin/cygwin_dll.h

Hope the above helps.

Jason
