[Spread-users] newbie trying to compile win32 spread daemon

Fri Apr 2 19:55:40 EST 2004

The quick answer is to just delete the 
#include <unistd.h> 
line from lex.yy.c. That header is not needed for Windows and does not 
exist on the platform. 

That may be all you have to do to build it. (for version 3.17.1) 

If you do have other problems with building it then keep reading...
Another note about windows compiling, we have built the binaries using 
Visual C++ 6.0 in the past and that is what the build files we include are 
from. We have recently tried Visual .Net and we know that the current 
3.17.2rc3 source release will not build without changes on that. However 
the previous stable release should build (3.17.1). The windows build 
problems with the current version will be fixed very shortly.

>From looking at your attached trace it seems like you are trying to build 
the 3.17.2rc3 -- To do that you will need to make the following changes to 
your project files

Add YY_NEVER_INTERACTIVE and HAVE_GOOD_VARGS as preprocessor defines in 
the project file.

That may be enough to make the build succeed.
