You might try my improved version, but I have my doubts about whether it will help those missing parties, which were introduced by Microsoft into the platform SDK for 64-bit compatibility. I strongly recommend a policy of requiring a Platform SDK. Ever since VC7, Microsoft has stopped including Win32 API headers in the visual studio hierarchy. Instead, you are supposed to have the platform SDK. You always \could/ use the platform SDK, which is more up-to-date. It's a free download from Microsoft. The platform SDK is compatible with VC6. If you don't want to go here, we'll have to find SOMEONE to regenerate qxe who has the old, dusty, VC6 environment, and who is willing to run the qxe generation target against my addition of aclapi.h and check in the results. -----Original Message----- From: ethersoft(a)gmail.com [mailto:ethersoft＠gmail.com] On Behalf Of Vin Shelton Sent: Saturday, November 25, 2006 2:10 PM To: Benson Margulies Cc: xemacs-patches(a)xemacs.org Subject: Re: [PATCH] check_writable for Win32 and cygwin repair Hi Benson, Thanks for sending this in for review.

It looks like some definitions may be missing on VC6; in a native build, I'm getting the following errors: console-msw.c e:\cygwin\usr\local\src\xemacs-21.5-2006-11-25\src\intl-auto-encap-win32 .h(476) : error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'PDWORD_PTR' e:\cygwin\usr\local\src\xemacs-21.5-2006-11-25\src\intl-auto-encap-win32 .h(488) : error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'ULONG_PTR' e:\cygwin\usr\local\src\xemacs-21.5-2006-11-25\src\intl-auto-encap-win32 .h(1025) : error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'ULONG_PTR' e:\cygwin\usr\local\src\xemacs-21.5-2006-11-25\src\intl-auto-encap-win32 .h(1297) : error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'DWORD_PTR' NMAKE: fatal error U1077: 'cl' : return code '0x2' Stop. FWIW, I did not find those definitions anywhere in my VC6 install directory hierarchy. - Vin -- The Journey by Mary Oliver http://www.poemhunter.com/p/m/poem.asp?poet=6771&poem=30506 _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Patches mailing list XEmacs-Patches(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-patches
