Hi folks!
I have now found the instructions for building gnustep with MSYS+MinGW,
and things are working much better than before with cygwin and so forht
(Duh!). However, there still are some minor wrinkles to get out, but
nothing really problematic. What *is* problematic is that make always
restarts the build from scratch. Not too pleasant on Virtual PC...
Any ideas what could be causing the build to re-start from scratch each
time, even if the previus make failed in the final link phase? One
thing I noticed is that it removes and re-copies the headers each time.
Are there dependencies on the build-locations of the headers?
re-copying the headers is a dumb hack. Perhaps this should be improved.
It shouldn't re-compile everything though. Perhaps just 10 or 20 files.
In any case, you could avoid this by compiling from a subdirectory:
cd Source
make
