Hello. I am also trying to build insight5.2.1 with 
Cygwin1.3.14-1/GCC 3.2 (20020818 pre) and get it failing here... 
Any idea?

Thanks in advance.
Marco

Marco,

I would not recommend using 5.2.1 with cygwin. It has issues. See 
http://sources.redhat.com/insight/cygwin.html.

<sorta rant>
List,

Second, I am amazed that I keep getting requests for how to fix this 
simple problem. Insight is a debugger, so I presume that people 
downloading it are at least vaguely familiar with programming. Why can 
people not figure out how to fix the simplest of errors?

The error message says it all: In TclWinSetInterfaces, the static symbol 
"tclWinTCharEncoding" is marked dllexport. Get it? The STATIC symbol is 
exported...

If people still don't get it, cgf has committed a patch to fix this. 
Search the mailing list or take a peek at tcl in CVS to find the patch.

Yup. Turns out that gcc 2.95 was a little more forgiving of these types of 
problems than 3.2.

I can compile (and being using for several months with zero problems) 
insight 5.2.1 with Cygwin/GCC2.95.3.
This problems raises only when trying to compile  insight 5.2.1with 
Cygwin/GCC3.2

Thought you could be interested in it...

I don't recall what I used last, but insight is just a c application. 
There's no reason why almost any compiler available for years couldn't 
build it.

Don't know - I have always just used what ever GCC it
was that came with CYGWIN.... and never messed with it.

Did they recently change to 3.2 or something?

Can Insight 5.2.1 be compiled on Cygwin GCC v3.2 20020818 pre?
