[OpenAFS-devel] Building v. 1.1.0 or 1.1.1 for Windows NT/2000?

[Kevin Coffman]

Scott,
I ran into a few problems building 1.1.1 on windows.  It seems that 
1.0.4a was the last source release to get "sanitized" (for lack of a 
better word) for windows.

To get past the problem you are currently hitting, I created an empty 
afsconfig.h in dest\include\afs\afsconfig.h.

Then I hit several files with RCSID definitions which cause the windows 
compiler to barf.  I wrote a perl script to remove the RCSID definition 
for all the files in the source tree.  (There were many files.)

Then I hit a problem compiling des\read_pssword.c because 
HAVE_WINDOWS_H was not defined.  I added a line to my empty afsconfig.h 
file above to #define HAVE_WINDOWS_H.

Then I ran into an unresolved reference for _afs_inet_ntoa while 
linking the fileserver.  I added afsutil.lib to the list of EXELIBS in 
the tviced\NTMakefile.

K.C.
