Hi,
There's a couple things you can do -
- add the flag /D "WIN32IOP_H" - this handles the win32_opendir
and similar errors.
- for the mode_t error, in apache/src/os/win32/os.h, change
the typedef of mode_t from 'int' to 'unsigned short', so as
to agree with the mode_t typedef of perl in perl/lib/core/win32.h.
In the same apache os.h file, if you change the typedef of
uid_t and gid_t from 'int' to 'long', again so as to agree
with Perl's typedefs, then the compilation, at least for me,
proceeeds without warnings.
Unfortunately, there's some problems in the linking phase - some
symbols that were present in perl.lib of 5.005_03 have been
removed from perl56.lib of 5.6.0. Doug has worked on this - you
may want to get the latest mod_perl cvs snapshot from
http://perl.apache.org/ and try that.
