RE: Circular library dependency under Windows?

[Lieven Govaerts <lg...@mobsol.be>]

I did an update of trunk up to revision 18467 on Windows, cleaned the
intermediate files, built the __ALL_TESTS__ target in Visual Studio.NET 2003
and ran fs-test, fs-base-test and svnserve. All without any problem.

I'm not very familiar with the "circular dependencies" problem, I suppose a
two-pass linker solves this automatically?

Isn't this something an automated build solution would have caught? Maybe I
should set one up.

Lieven.
