Re: Can't build repo tip on Cygwin

OK, attached are the hacks I needed to get a complete build. Only one has been discussed here in detail (the ifdef in syswindows.h), the rest are probably _way_ too brutal and unprincipled -- I'm sending them not for adoption, but as documentation to help those more competent than I to narrow things down. In particular, I remain completely baffled by the need for the #defines of WM_IME_... in event-msw.c - all my efforts with gcc -E left me baffled as to why the #defines in w32api/winuser.h were not getting through. I'm guessing that the PCVOID -> LPCVOID change is needed because something is now going wrong with how intl-auto-encap-win32.c includes syswindows.h, which has the following from Ben in 2010: /* Some types that show up in Cygwin headers but not in Visual Studio headers, and cause problems if we used Cygwin headers to generate intl-auto-encap-win32.[ch]. */ typedef LPCVOID PCVOID; Hope this helps! ht -- Henry S.
