Author: Andreas Bischoff at maillink Date: 5/6/97 5:24 AM Hi all, after some sleepless nights I decided to ask this list :-) I'm trying to build Tcl7.6/Tk7.4 from the unix sources. I know that there is a windows distribution available but AFAIK I can't use it: In addition to the core tcl/tk I also need a bunch of extensions: Tix, tclX, BLT, itcl/itk, et There is no windows port of blt (at least I didn't find any). So if I try to use the windows tk together with a nonwindows (X11) blt, they don't cooperate, of course. Therefore my attempt to build everything the unix way. But I'm having problems already with tcl: getsockoptions is missing from cygwin, also mkfifo. I tried to get it from libwsock32.a, but didn't succeed. nm shows a getsockopt AT 20. Searching through the archives I found an email that it is possible to mix unix sockets and winsock, but it was also mentioned, that it's not so easy. Did anybody build tcl/tk with cugwin32 ? BTW, I managed to build libX11.a, thanks to the patch from Sergei Okhapkin, thanks a lot. Therefore I'm optimistic that if I get tcl running, the rest should be also possible.
