I recently installed gnu-win32 (b16) and was able to build the demo programs - except for the demo program cplus.c. It built ok, but when it runs exception errors and stack errors scroll off the screen. I downloaded V from UNM and the documentation claims that it builds under gnu-win32. Several files gave ANSI errors when compiling (vtexted.c in particlular) - I solved (?) this by copying string.h into the build directory. There appears to be a conflict between string.h and String.h (the g++ String.h is not declaring strcat, strstr, ...). I tried to link using g++ -o vgen $(OBJS) -L../lib -lV -lcygwin32 -lgdi32 -lkernel32 -luser32 and it built "something" with no complaints. When I then tried to run it, I got the same exception errors and stack errors scrolling off the screen. I would appreciate any help. Thanks, Mike Beddo - For help on using this list, send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
