Compiling on Windows /NT

Compiling on Windows /NT

[Andrew Brackley]

I'm using visual studio 6.0 along with the latest version of cygwin.

I've followed the readme files, plus notes made by other people on the mailing
list but still can't get source code navigator to compile.
The error I am getting is:

tclWin32Dll.c
../../../SN451/tcl8.1/win/tclWin32Dll.c(420) : error C2065: 'try' : undeclared
identifier

In the source there is a try/except block that is surrounded by an #ifndef
__GNUC__ clause.

By including a #define __GNUC__ statement, I get further but then the following
error occurs:

tclWin32Dll.c
C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~4\VC98\INCLUDE\io.h(105) : error C2632: 'long' followed by
'long' is illegal

I think that this error relates to the timezone definition.

Please help !!
