Dreid CVS commits break Windows build
Some CVS activity by Dreid last night and this morning in srclib/apr
have broken the ability to build on Windows. Did I just come in
mid-checkin?

Actually, this is also an opportune time for a high-level comment on Apache
development:
The developer guidelines state that we should ensure the code that we
check in works on *our* platform. A given developer is not required to
guarantee proper building on other platforms.
That said, we also show some simple respect for each other and attempt to
not break other platforms (but it still happens, nevertheless). In this
case, Cliff went and added some stuff to the .dsp files and crossed his
fingers that would be sufficient. Missing the apr_private.h bit and the
makefiles are quite understandable.
Cheers,

mod_include uses subrequests, and they haven't been working for a while
on any platform I'm aware of. Jeff Trawick just posted two patches that
look promising. I'm still puzzled about what exactly broke them, but
whatever it is happened after 2_0_16.

Not if you run VC6.0 or better ... the command line build:
msdev.exe Apache.dsw /MAKE "InstallBin - Win32 Release" /USEENV
should solve your headaches :-) If you are only trying to test compile on an
automated basis, skip installbin and list multiple targets, eg.
msdev.exe Apache.dsw /USEENV /MAKE "libhttpd - Win32 Release" \
"libhttpd - Win32 Release" "mod_foo - Win32 Release" ...

That's what I thought. Then I reparsed my syntax by eye, and realized I had an
error. Can you create a -very simple- file with a single directive to test?
It's possible this is a win32 bug, since the file may be opened for sendfile, but
we can't read that file. A fix is coming within the hour or so.

Ya. That's kinda annoying because it prevents automated build processes
on Win32.

They don't work at all. No output. No error log entries. No virtual
includes, no exec cgi, no nothing.

Jerry, that's par for course. We decided on a basic rule some time ago that we
would only spend the time to refresh the make files once in a blue moon (before
we cut tarballs), and at one time we had pulled them out altogether.
If you are working from cvs, you must kick up msdev, and use it to build the
InstallBin project from the command line, or more simply just export the make
files.

Broken relative to ??? They are definately more finicky about bad syntax, but
that's been tru for a while.

Uhhmm,, well, that's progress I guess. I'll have to throw up my hands and
claim ignorance of these things. Somebody who knows how to make MS's
compilers behave, please help me out.

That's probably a different matter, namely the file/mmap buckets in
subrequests problem that's being discussed in another thread.

It builds on Win32 now from inside MSDEV, but not from the command line
with nmake.
Includes are now broken. Don't know if it is related or just a filter
problem from some other checkin.

I just checked in Ian's patch. Can you please do a cvs update and verify
that you're building again on Win32?

Ian Holsman submitted a patch for this earlier today to the apr-dev list.
I'll go take a look at it and commit it.
