This patch does not apply at all to my repository. Every single hunk fails - I have a feeling it might have double line-ending encodings or something like that? Since you're using git (at least eh patch indicates so), have you perhaps published a git branch somewhere that I could try pulling from instead? Or if not - just to be sure, you are basing this off the master branch, I hope? > It's diffed against current head + running "perltidy -b -bl -nsfs -naws > -l=100 -ole=unix *.pl *.pm" as described in the README file (which seems not > to have been run before committing Mkvcbuild.pm the last time). Yeah, it looks that way - it's missing the ordering of the contrib arrays. I'll run it once for that now, and then please rebase your patch on top of that - makes it easier to review it. If you still see any changes on top of that, then there's something strange going on.. > It is problably neither the perfect way to introduce VS2010 support (my perl > is better than my C but probably still not what you are used to) nor is it > my way to try to make you officially support VS 2010.

Oh, starting with a patch is definitely not the wrong way :-) it does look like they changed the file format extensively this time though - that's annoying, but hopefully they will stick to the new format this time... > The SDK 7.1 build produces tons of warnings which are mostly macro > redefinitions of EIDRM, EMSGSIZE, EAFNOSUPPORT, EWOULDBLOCK, ECONNRESET, > EINPROGRESS, ENOBUFS, EPROTONOSUPPORT, ECONNREFUSED and EOPNOTSUPP which > seem to have found their way into errno.h finally.

Yes, it's good that you resisted that :-) It should be done with something like #if _MSC_VER >= 1400 (with 1400 replaced with whatever version is appropriate) There's at elast one example in c.h already, and several others spread through files and code. -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
