excellent.


I think we should make this the default supported compiler for the 1.11
release if we can confirm that we compile with VC++ Express (which is free
from MS).


i agree. MSVC 14 (AKA Visual Studio 2005's C Compiler) should be the 
default supported compiler for the future Wget releases. fortunately, i 
have been able to setup a build environment w/ MSVC 14 on my laptop so from 
now on i'll be able to help w/ Win32-related problems.



We should also double check on OpenSSL, since MS has now includes
MASM as a free download for VC++ Express users. I'm going to have to spin up
a VM to test the VC++ Express compile - I should be able to do this sometime
this weekend.


does VC++ Express provide also nmake?

Cristopher, I tried with the old makeinfo I had on my system and it worked
fine. Maybe we should take a look at the makeinfo Changelog and take a look
what the say for old script conversion, in the meantime at least this should
enable you to get a working version.

The only other issue I have right now is the MakeInfo program doesn't seem
to be working correctly.

I downloaded the latest version from GNU (TextInfo 4.8), but it doesn't seem
to support the --hpj parameter:

c:\CVSProjects\Wget\wget-1.11-alpha-1\doc>makeinfo --version

So am not able to produce the Help file.  Note that I do remember at one
point in around the 1.6 or 1.8 branch I was able to get this to work.  I
guess that's what I get for

Sorry about the delay.

Travis, in what environment are you building ? I see configure and bash, I
suppose you are trying to build a cygnus binary. While that one needs to be
tested, too, I was referring to the native Visual C binary without need for
the cygnus runtime.
You'll need a current VC environment, build the openssl libraries (the first
time and whenever there are important changes like security fixes), add
those to the VC environment, configure.bat --msvc, nmake.

Can anybody confirm if the current alpha (or at least late subversion
exports) does build cleanly ? If not, if there are some problems, if it is
the first time you are trying to attempt this, I'd advice to try with the
1.10.1 sources first (since those are known to build cleanly) in order to
straight out your setup, if nobody else does step in I'll try to help you
whenever possible.

Re: Windows compler need (was RE: wget 1.11 alpha 1 released)

2006-06-14 Thread Travis Loyd
Figured out my own problem, perhaps someone might alter this in the
source tree.

The file 'configure.in' has a line as:

dnl
dnl Create output
dnl
AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile src/Makefile doc/Makefile util/Makefile
po/Makefile.in tests/Makefile windows/Makefile])

If the line AC_CONFIG_FILES is altered so that it does not wrap around
then everything works in my environment.  I think the problem with my
tools was a \r\n instead of just \n.  But, at the moment can't be sure.

Hopefully this was a helpful note.

2006-06-14 Thread Travis Loyd
Hello gang, I'm considering building the Windows releases for you.

My initial attempts to build wget resulted in an error when performing
./configure:

gettext not found; disabling NLS
checking for makeinfo... makeinfo
checking for perl5... no
checking for perl... /usr/bin/perl
checking for pod2man... /usr/bin/pod2man
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: creating src/Makefile
config.status: creating doc/Makefile
config.status: creating util/Makefile
.infig.status: error: cannot find input file: util/Makefile

Then typing ./make didn't do much better:

bash-3.1$ make
./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: creating src/Makefile
config.status: creating doc/Makefile
config.status: creating util/Makefile
.infig.status: error: cannot find input file: util/Makefile
make: *** [stamp-h] Error 1

Is it just me?

Is the process completely scripted & automated by now?  I'm assuming it
is... including grabbing updated files etc?
