Has anyone actually built 21.5.29 on Windows? MSVC (at least v7.1, which I've been using for our builds) seems to follow the C89 rule which requires all variable declarations to be at the top of the block. As a result, the build fails with this error: C:\tmp\xemacs\src\objects-msw.c(2082) : error C2275: 'HFONT' : illegal use of this type as an expression because the declaration of 'hfont' is now preceded by non-declaration code. Looks like this was introduced here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.xemacs.beta/28907/focus=29165 The attached patch fixes it. I'm surprised nobody else has seen this, unless there's some MSVC setting I'm missing... -- Ron Isaacson Morgan Stanley ron.isaacson(a)morganstanley.com / (212) 762-1051 _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
