Re: [PATCH] Implementation of fsync for Windows

[Richard W.M. Jones]

I have a general question: Does Gnulib get any sort of nightly
build/test?  On [real] Windows machines?

And a general comment: Some work colleagues and I are working on a
Windows cross-compiler project for Fedora[1].  The number one big
porting problem has been lack of flock/lockf/fcntl file locking.  So
I'm working on an flock[2] implementation for gnulib, based also on
what is in sqlite.

Rich.

[2] flock being much simpler, and being possible to map on to old
Windows 95/98 LockFile semantics.
