I want to try debugging on MS-Windows with gdb. I normally build with
MSVC, but I don't see a way to use that executable with gdb (perhaps
it's possible with some compiler flag?).
So I'll use MinGW for compiling. MinGW provides gcc and make, so I
expect this to work:
make -f Make_ming.mak GUI=no DEBUG=yes
This gives an error in diff.c:
storage size of 'st' isn't known.
Hmm. I can work around it by changing the condition in vim.h:
/* Use 64-bit stat structure if available. */
#if (defined(_MSC_VER) && (_MSC_VER >= 1300)) || defined(__MINGW32__)
# define HAVE_STAT64
typedef struct _stat64 stat_T;
#else
typedef struct stat stat_T;
#endif
So use "struct stat". I wonder why this change is needed. perhaps the
#ifdef is wrong?
Then it compiles many files but fails when building iscygpty.c .
It complains that _WIN32_WINNT and WINVER differ. That's because the
build file has:
$(OUTDIR)/iscygpty.o: iscygpty.c $(CUI_INCL)
$(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) iscygpty.c -o $(OUTDIR)/iscygpty.o -U_WIN32_WINNT
-D_WIN32_WINNT=0x0600 -DUSE_DYNFILEID -DENABLE_STUB_IMPL
Overruling _WIN32_WINNT for one file seems like a bad idea, why was this
added? But building iscygpty.c with WINVER set to 0x0501 apparently
doesn't work.
So instead I specify WINVER to be 0x0600. I wonder how it can ever work
without that. Perhaps we should make it the default?
