I've played with Cygwin the last couple of days. I've discovered tha haven't checked the patch in, so I'll check in an updated version soon. This doesn't mean that I've got Cygwin support working, it just means that I'm fixing build issues as I encounter them. Unfortunately, it takes ages for Cygwin to build kaffe on my p3-600 with win98, and some of the configure checks seem to be able to put win98 in a weird state. With respect to fixing the the build errors on platforms where we don;t have access to the exception/signalling information I proposed to get rid of the EXCEPTIONFRAME call here: http://www.kaffe.org/pipermail/kaffe/2003-August/043433.html There wasn't much discussion, and I don't know if it would actually work. But it may be worth a try to try defining EXCEPTIONFRAME away as it is done in kaffe/kaffevm/systems/unix-jthreads/signal.c for the interpreter. Which is what I intend to try. cheers, dalibor topic ___ kaffe mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://kaffe.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kaffe
