[Bug 66239] Files missing from trunk

[bu...@apache.org]

--- Comment #2 from William A. Rowe Jr. <wr...@apache.org> ---
1. You are better off not using make, but CMake, which (generally) has httpd
resolving apr across both projects. If you want NMake files, CMake does that.
If you want project files, CMake creates those. apr 2.0 may never support
"windows make" (or it might, who knows that far out). Unreleased versions of
apr NEVER carried the mak files, because there are so many large deltas while
things get sorted out.

2. With respect to Makefile.win, see 1. above. But you could start a ticket to
suggest only this one change, at one time it could resolve devenv vs msdev, but
I haven't looked at that in 8 years or so. Look at Makefile.win for an override
option.

Finally, httpd 2.4 doesn't support apr 2.0, and probably won't. httpd 2.5
(trunk development) generally does. But there was a change to apr 2.0 on
Windows specifically moving the include files from include/ to include/apr-2
which was very disruptive and not reflected in the trunk branch of apr, and
therefore httpd isn't coping well. That's very far down on my list but it would
eventually be resolved. Expect APR 1.8 and APR-util 1.7 to be released long
before apr 2.0 will see the light of day.
