Hm, not at the moment. But several of our projects depend on the library - and it makes contributing more easy, if the library is available as Cygwin package. >Several problems: >* The source package (NAME) should be name mxml; >* A shared library should be created (pass --enable-shared to cygconf); >* Static libraries are not generally desired; >* There should be 2-3 subpackages, mxml with any program/utilties, >ibmxml1 with the runtime library, and libmxml-devel (not -dev) with the >headers, import library, etc. There a now two packages: one containing the shared library and the other containing the development files See: https://sk13.xyz:45443/cygwin/x86/ Sincerely, Stefan -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: cygwin-apps-ow...@cygwin.com [mailto:cygwin-apps-ow...@cygwin.com] Im Auftrag von Yaakov Selkowitz Gesendet: Freitag, 22.

Several problems: * The source package (NAME) should be name mxml; * A shared library should be created (pass --enable-shared to cygconf); * Static libraries are not generally desired; * There should be 2-3 subpackages, mxml with any program/utilties, libmxml1 with the runtime library, and libmxml-devel (not -dev) with the headers, import library, etc. -- Yaakov
