Hi Lauri
You are right on both counts
1. WinZip inserted DOS end-of-lines.
2. There's a mismatch of arg. type info. on procedure calls.
The latest GNU C compiler, gcc 4.3.1, gives better diagnostics -- at a
price.
It took about 7 hours to install on Windows Vista (including two new math.
packages which are prerequisites).

Subject: Re: [redland-dev] Windows/Cygwin build problems
Hi,
building Redland on Cygwin works for me.
1. testing variables
if variable
---
endif
Cygwin complains about something near "if".
Changing "if" to "ifdef" removes complaint.
2. setting variables
@variable = ...
Cygwin complains about something near "@"
Changing "@" to "#", or deleting "@", removes complaint.
These look like end-of-line encoding issues. Some Windows tool of
yours probably converted them to CRLFs while the Cygwin tools still
expect them to be LFs only and complain about the extra CR.
3. C compilation errors in flex/bison source, for example
raptor_mkr_writer.c: At top level:
raptor_mkr_writer.c:802: error: parse error before '*' token
raptor_mkr_writer.c: In function `raptor_mkr_writer_get_feature':
raptor_mkr_writer.c:807: error: `feature' undeclared (first use in this
function)
raptor_mkr_writer.c:809: error: `mkr_writer' undeclared (first use in
this
function)
I don't yet have a fix for problem 3. Problem seems to be associated
with
procedure calls where bison has matched a pattern. It makes me wonder if
gcc
is complaining about procedure argument "declarations" embedded in
procedure
call.
Hard to say about this without the source. The error message looks
like you have a "foo *bar" declaration but have not included the
typedef for foo yet.
Generally, flex and bison generated source builds fine on cygwin.
fix-flex and fix-bison scripts are hacks. They work with the specific
flex/bison versions and input files (raptor/rasqal lexers and parsers)
but do not necessarily work with other flex/bison versions or other
input files.
