Hi,
As I was writing my task dialog test I ran into a few problems trying to test on Windows...
First, I tried building it using make crosstest but I keep getting this:
$ gmake crosstest crosstest is not supported (mingw not installed?) gmake: *** [crosstest] Error 1
I am on FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE (i386), I have the following mingw ports installed (using pkg_add)
mingw32-bin-msvcrt-r3.18.a3.14 mingw32-binutils-2.21,1 mingw32-directx-20020518 mingw32-gcc-4.5.0_1,1 mingw32-pdcurses-3.4 mingw32-pthreads-2.8.0
I deleted config.status (there was no config.cache) and re-ran ./configure, it fails to detect mingw, so I gave up on that.
I then tried building them on Windows directly instead (using Visual Studio 2008 with Windows SDK v7.0) as describred there: http://www.winehq.org/docs/winedev-guide/testing-windows
However, trying to compile comctl32_tests using the WINE headers would complain about EXCEPTION_EXECUTE_HANDLER being undefined. On the other hand, compiling with the MSVC headers would complain about TVIS_FOCUSED not being present. According to this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/166471 it has been deprecated and removed from MS headers a long time ago.
Eventually I would like to just be able to make crosstest so that I can stay in one dev environments and not two, so if anybody could help me about why isn't mingw32 detected, I would like it.
Thanks. - Patrick
