[Klone-users] Klone 2.0.0 on Cygwin

[Robert Finking]

Hi,

I just d/l klone and tried to build on Cygwin, which I know is not 
currently on the (ever expanding) list of supported platforms. I ran 
into a couple of problems which I've fixed, and then got stuck.

First up the addr_t type has a name clash with one of the standard types 
defined by Cygwin.  Generally this is a bad name for a type in global 
namespace since pretty much anybody may come up with it.  I fixed it by 
doing a rename - would it be possible to rename to kl_addr_t or some 
similar (Cygwin is unlikely to be the only environment where this clash 
occurs).

Secondly the "dir.h" include file couldn't be found. On Cygwin there is 
no "dir.h" include file, but there is a "dirent.h" include file, which 
they clalim is POSIX compliant.  Anyway I put a simlink in which fixed 
this - might be useful if there was a #ifdef to identify if Cygwin is 
being used and if so #include "dirent.h".

Finally, the build bombed out during linking:

Is this easily solvable, or will I need to d/l MinGW? If I do d/l MinGW 
is the install for that straightforward or will there be similar nips 
and tucks needed?

Thanks in advance!
