        To state the obvious, I'm probably doing something stupid.

        I am using Visual Studio 2010 + SP1 (to get around an
        incremental linking bug).

        I have a directory with:

        apr-1.4.x as apr
        apr-util-1.5.x as apr-util
        apr-iconv-1.1.x as apr-iconv

        Within apr-util I try

        l>nmake -f Makefile.win PREFIX=c:\apr1x USEMAK=1 ARCH="Win32
        Debug" buildall checkall

        This fails with

                cd ..\apr-iconv
                "c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio
        10.0\VC\BIN\nmake.exe" -
        nologo -f apriconv.mak    CFG="apriconv - Win32 Debug" RECURSE=0
        NMAKE : fatal error U1052: file 'apriconv.mak' not found
        Stop.

        Sure enough, there is no apriconv.mak there.

        Am I supposed to do something first to generate them, before I
        can use the apr-util Makefile.win?


    Unless you have VC6, use  apr-iconv-1.2.1-win32-src-r2.zip or
    steal the .mak/.dep files from it.
    http://apr.apache.org/download.cgi


Thanks, I'll use that.

Is there a reason we shouldn't commit the build support to svn? (Is there something unique about that build support that warrants leaving it uncommitted?)

Probably not and I see they're in APR-Iconv/trunk which looks like where the 1.2.1 tag came from. Why they're not included in tag I can only guess. However, we do not want them landing in the Unix tarballs as that's the way it's been for a long time. I believe Bill for the longest time has been generating these win32 source packages on the side.

Which thinking about it, it will be interesting to see what happens in APU 1.5.2 now that the .mak/dep files are in the branch.

Enjoy,

Gregg
