Re: [Chicken-users] building under windows

Hi,

I tried to touch build-version.c but with no change. I would have been surprised to see one, since all other .c file have the same timestamp.

I commented out the lines 556-558 from rules.make and succeeded with the build. To me it looks like a bug in make. 

For your information, I tried to use the toolchains provided by http://www.mingw.org and http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net. Both have the same behaviour. (allthough the second one displayed some warnings, which were not displayed by the first one).

Hi!

Try to "touch" build-version.c - you can simply open it with
an editor and add a space somewhere (i.e. just modify and save
it to update the timestamp).
