<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hello,</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I am new to libical. I have run into
a few build problems. I am using version 0.46. I am on Windoze using both
cygwin and Visual Studio 2005 (aka vc8).</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">First the problems under cygwin: 0.44
builds just fine but 0.46 says:</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">config.status: error: cannot find the
input file: zoneinfo/Makefile.in.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">If I copy the Makefile.in from version
0.44 and (re)configure then I get a similar error:</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">config.status: error: cannot find the
input file: Makefile.in.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">If I copy that one from 0.44 and (re)configure
then I get a similar error for the next Makefile.in it can't find, and
so on.....</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">It looks to me like there has been some
packaging error in the release of version 0.46. With all the Makefile.in
files in place configure then failed with:</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">config.status: error: cannot find the
input file: config.h.in.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">At this point I gave up trying to build
0.46 with cygwin.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Now for the problem under VS: it says
the dsp file for libical is corrupt and refuses to open it. I get
the same problem on vesion 0.44.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">The README.win32 file talks about dsp
files for VS6. This makes me wonder about WIN32 support. VS6 is ancient
and has an unusable STL (most people replace it with the one from Dinkumware).
I know that VS8 is also quite old but unfortunately this is the version
I am stuck with. At least VC8 comes with a usable STL. So I would very
much like to build libical using it. Has anyone else done this please?</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Regards,<br>
<br>
