Hi, everyone. Now I have been in trouble with building SVN on windows. After hours work, I'v found there are some out-of-date part in the current install and it's not easy a new comer to build it on Windows. Now I'm perplexed by "msdev subversion_msvc.dsw /USEENV /MAKE "__ALL_TESTS__ - Win32 Release"".
With the zlib-1.2.3, I got: " D:\SVN\src-trunk>msdev subversion_msvc.dsw /USEENV /MAKE "__ALL_TESTS__ - Win32 Release" --------------------Configuration: zlib - Win32 Release-------------------- nmake /f win32\Makefile.msc STATICLIB=zlibstat.lib zlibstat.lib cl -c -nologo -MD -O2 adler32.c adler32.c zconf.h(289) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'unistd.h': No such file or directory NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'cl' : return code '0x2' Stop. --------------------Configuration: libsvn_subr_dll - Win32 Release-------------- ------ Build : warning : failed to (or don't know how to) build 'D:\SVN\zlib\zlibstat.l ib' Linking... LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file "zlibstat.lib" Error executing link.exe. __ALL_TESTS__ - 3 error(s), 1 warning(s)" It seems zlibstat.lib hasn't built successfully when zlib-1.2.3 is used. When use zlib-1.2.5 instead, I got errors below: "D:\SVN\src-trunk>msdev subversion_msvc.dsw /USEENV /MAKE "__ALL_TESTS__ - Win32 Release" --------------------Configuration: zlib - Win32 Release-------------------- nmake /f win32\Makefile.msc STATICLIB=zlibstat.lib zlibstat.lib 'zlibstat.lib' is up-to-date --------------------Configuration: libsvn_subr_dll - Win32 Release-------------- ------ Linking... .\libsvn_subr.def : warning LNK4087: CONSTANT keyword is obsolete; use DATA Creating library ..\..\..\Release\subversion\libsvn_subr/libsvn_subr-1.lib an d object ..\..\..\Release\subversion\libsvn_subr/libsvn_subr-1.exp zlibstat.lib(inflate.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _inflate_f ast ..\..\..\Release\subversion\libsvn_subr\libsvn_subr-1.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals Error executing link.exe. __ALL_TESTS__ - 2 error(s), 1 warning(s) D:\SVN\src-trunk>" Link erorrs occur on zlib-1.2.5. I have spent 3 hours on it, but can not make progress. Could anyone give me some help, please? Thanks very much! Regards -- Justin Peng
