Anna,
nobody has ever tried the build.xml settings for Windows
and i'm shure it won't work (i'm talking about the C++
stuff, all Java runs fine on Windows).
There need to be somebody playing around with build.xml
on Windows C++ and contribute this.
Martin Johnson and you are the proud first victims :-)
To adjust build.xml to run with C++ Windows you need
to understand the "cpptasks" coded by Curt Arnold.
See
https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ant-contrib-developers
https://sourceforge.net/projects/antcontrib/
It is worth going the ant/cpptasks way as we have a common
build.xml to compile C++ on all platforms in future.
Other tools (like jam, configure, Makefile ...) all have cross platform
drawbacks - for us ant is the bright future even for C++.
On Windows i tried once and these settings seemed to be not too bad:
------------- Raw Windows invocations ------------------------------------
set CFLAGS=/c /nologo /D_WINDOWS /GX /GR /TP /MTd /DMICO=1 /I.
/IE:\mico\include /IE:\mico\include\windows /nologo /D_WINDOWS
/IE:\xmlBlaster\src\c++
cl.exe %CFLAGS% /FoE:\xmlBlaster\build\obj\Log.obj
E:\xmlBlaster\src\c++\util\Log.cpp
cl.exe %CFLAGS% /FoE:\xmlBlaster\build\obj\xmlBlaster.obj
E:\xmlBlaster\src\c++\generated\xmlBlaster.cpp
cl.exe %CFLAGS% /FoE:\xmlBlaster\build\obj\CompatibleCorba.obj
E:\xmlBlaster\src\c++\util\CompatibleCorba.cpp
cl.exe %CFLAGS% /IE:\xerces-c-src1_6_0\src
/IE:\xerces-c-src1_6_0\include
/FoE:\xmlBlaster\build\obj\CorbaConnection.obj
E:\xmlBlaster\src\c++\client\CorbaConnection.cpp
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Something like the above commands needs to be generated by ant/build.xml
in future.
regards,
Marcel
