OK - thanks Riccardo, I did the GNUmakefile change. It should compile on
Windows now. :-)

Thanks

do not build the debug module. It is not portable to windows and won't be in any forseeable future. At least not until somebody comes up with a solution.

I might improve the makefiles to do that automatically before release perhaps...

Using revision 27493 and the standard GNUstep windows installer (gcc 3.4.5) fails to build ProjectCenter.
This is not unexpected since openpty and forkpty does not exist in glibc or on libutil in mingw.

Build failure as below:

Compiling file PTYView.m ...
PTYView.m:31:24: warning: sys/termios.h: No such file or directory
PTYView.m:38:20: warning: stropts.h: No such file or directory
PTYView.m:52:19: warning: pty.h: No such file or directory
PTYView.m: In function `-[PTYView openpty]':
PTYView.m:134: warning: implicit declaration of function `openpty'
Linking bundle ProjectCenter ...
C:\GNUstep\mingw\bin\..\lib\gcc\mingw32\3.4.5\..\..\..\..\mingw32\bin\ld.exe: cannot find -lutil

Since the pseudo devices in /dev does not exist on mingw I am afraid that we need to some platform specific code around this.

Cheers,
Tim
