What is cygwin required for? Is that only if I want to build for *nix? Or is that required even for a Win build? > Setup include/lib paths paths to the various items in cvsdeps > (unfortunately for cvsnt there's no premade settings file like there is > for evs so this is still a manual task). Yes - that was a pain! :) I didn't find any specific branches for cvsdeps - I just used the trunk - is that okay? > I don't think you need to go with that complex checkout procedure - last > time I did it I just checked out CVSNT_2_0_x and it worked fine. Shouldn't > be any different for the 2382 branch. I tried without that complex script, but I had 3 files missing in plink module. Don't remember them offhand, but if memory serves, the 3 were: be_cvsnt.c console_cvsnt.c plink_cvsnt.c Updating to plink to branch CVSNT_2_0_x replaced those files back in though. > build.h is built at the start of the build process automatically.. you > didn't post any errors producing that though so I'm not sure what's going > on there. Hmmm - interesting. Where do I look for build.h in that case? In VS2003, I did a clean & rebuild soln, and ended up with that error. On side question, Arthur mentioned that the code for the Message to Bug option was added to the 2382 build for commercial customers, and is in the source for the 2382 branch, but not in the OSS 2382 build. I'm a bit confused how that happens - does that mean the the OSS 2382 built was built from the same branch but at an earlier time? In which case, wouldn't the build number be different for the commercial clients? Thanks! Eric
