I want to use this application as a back-end for windows GUI application. This GUI application is written using MFC. I find out that there is no way to use cygwin *.o objects and *.dll libraries in VC++ projects because of gcc and msvc compiler uncompatibilities. So i cannot use cygwin+gcc to compile my back-end and msvc to compile GUI front-end. Am i right? I cannot use msvc to compile entire project. Can i compile MFC GUI application using cygwin+gcc? I tried to do it but i have some problems: Compiler cannot find MFC headers and some win32 headers like tchar.h. I copy tchar.h to cygwin's win32 include directory and use gcc with -I option. But i still have problems: /cygdrive/c/visualstudio/vc98/mfc/include/afx.h:621: variable or field `__fastca ll' declared void /cygdrive/c/visualstudio/vc98/mfc/include/afx.h:621: parse error before `(' /cygdrive/c/visualstudio/vc98/mfc/include/afx.h:1523: confused by earlier errors , bailing out So can i combine cygwin API functions with MFC? -- Best regards, Serj mailto:serj AT hea DOT iki DOT rssi DOT ru -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
