Tcl doesn't build out of src repository on cygwin

Tcl doesn't build out of src repository on cygwin

[Dave Korn]

  Should it?  I see loads of error messages caused by a bad table of static
initialisers in src/tcl/win/tclWin32Dll.c.


    cheers,

It happens because DLLIMPORT is used a lot in w32api which is only
conditionalized with __INSIDE_CYGWIN__.  That's solved in w32api in
CVS or in recent snapshots.  Or (but that's ugly and not actually
recommended, use at your own risk) use #define __INSIDE_CYGWIN__
at the beginning of the affected files (tclWin32Dll.c and tkWinX.c
AFAIK)

  Or use CFLAGS='-D__INSIDE_CYGWIN__ -g -O2' on the command line,
presumably?

  Thanks Corinna.  I wasn't sure if there was a better list to bring this up
on, since Tcl isn't a sourceware project; then again, since the build
failure was cygwin-specific, I guess it was on-topic anyway.

    cheers,

  Mess up other stuff in the same build, or change the meaning of header
files or something, would it?  Ok, fair enough.  I'll stick with the
locally-modded C files.

do you know when the fixed version of w32api will be in the Cygwin 
"release" (that suff you get with setup.exe)?

No, the win32 API is packed separately by the MingW team.  Earnie,
do you have a deadline for a new w32api version?
