Hello,

I am trying to build CouchDB on Windows too.

Regarding SpiderMonkey, It seems that I have
successfully build the DLL (though with lots of
warnings). Take a look at this page.

Now I am lost in trying to build couch_erl_driver.c.

I am just learning how to build things, I don't
understand what the phrase of InstallingOnWindows
page is saying.

'The simplest way to build a DLL is to create a Win32 DLL project in an IDE, add couch_erl_driver.c into the project, and change project settings to include the Erlang ERTS and ICU4C header paths.'

I don't get what I actually have to do.

With VisualStudio2008' Win32 DLL project, it seems
that source must be in C++. I don't know how to fix this.

Jonathan Resnick ????????:
Has anyone got CouchDB successfully built on Windows?  I feel silly
asking this but for better or worse Windows is what I know.  On the
other hand, the abiliy to get it going easily on Windows would open it
up to a whole new audience to try out.

I have tried following the directions posted here
http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/InstallingOnWindows, but I can't seem
to find binaries for SpiderMonkey anywhere on the Mozilla site, nor
have I had any luck compiling it from source (the *.mdp file is too
old to open in Visual Studio and NMAKE craps out with some
unintelliglible error).

I have also searched the archives of this mailing list but haven't
come across anything relevant.  Any ideas would be a great help.
