Can't remember what compiler I installed; there are Windows SDK 7 and
Visual Studio 9 directories.

Despite the lag, I'd like to get back to this given all your effort so far.

Do you still have your config.log? It should show in there what it found for the C compiler.

OK, and maybe a crazy idea. Despite the fact that we're having problems with the Win7 build for our usual processing, would it be worth doing a merge INTO the guild branch and setting up an additional win buildbot for that?

I am currently thinking we will gain more from porting to Java, than trying
to maintain a build system for the buggy, leaky, complex, crash-prone,
insecure languages that are C/C++.

I don't know if its C++, which is still very widely used for programming development, or our complicated code, of which I'm guessing, at least 25% could be eliminated.

Unfortunately I discovered a major problem with the
gbuild-reintegration branch: on Windows, the build time of trunk is
about 3-4 hours, but it's over 12 hours to build gbuild-reintegration
:-(. I don't have time to investigate soon, nor do I know where to
even begin...


​Hi Damjan, and thanks for this update even it is disappointing.

Could you share what the specifics are for the Windows platform you're
using for the build?

* specific Windows OS
* C compiler and flags
* build options
* ​

​anything else?

Thanks again for all your work on this. We can work this out.

Hello;

FWIW, I am preparing a second round of spelling fixes ... it's a
quite big change. I would prefer to do such changes *after* the
new build system is in place though.

I can deal easily with any breakage caused by the spelling fixes but
it may not be very fun to have to fix again the build issues so I
would really prefer to chose the battle field ahead of time ;).

Pedro.
