From 601c52f0fb7d36599045e90a6baafe918997f644 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gilbert Ramirez Date: Tue, 13 Jul 1999 02:53:26 +0000 Subject: Added support for compiling on win32 with Visual C and 'nmake'. It compiles, but does not link. Perhaps someone who understands the MS tools can help out. I made it link a few months ago, but with different version of glib/gtk+. I can't remember how I made it link. Most of the compatibility issues were resolved with adding #ifdef HAVE_UNISTD_H the the source code. Please be sure to add this to all future code. svn path=/trunk/; revision=359 --- README.win32 | 30 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 30 insertions(+) create mode 100644 README.win32 (limited to 'README.win32') diff --git a/README.win32 b/README.win32 new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..5fa7648ceb --- /dev/null +++ b/README.win32 @@ -0,0 +1,30 @@ +$Id: README.win32,v 1.1 1999/07/13 02:52:46 gram Exp $ + +Ethereal can be compiled on Win32 platforms.
