| Summary | 0002803: [patch] build under cygwin | ||||
| Description | cygwin isn't supported by unrealircd so i implement a way myself long ago and it works nicely. the cygwin-c-ares.patch against c-ares in this patch is applied for cygwin only, as no one contribute ares to cygwin. implemented recently. it is well tested/used under cygwin, and is taken cared to not break other system by heavy tested under linux. although i don't need to build under cygwin anymore, someone might do. feel free to reject it. | ||||

...Unreal doesn't need to build under cygwin - it can run under windows natively. |

aquanight: i agree. Only thing I can forsee using cygwin for is if he does not have a Compiler (for modules)(like visual c++), and wants to use the linux-ish one.... |

I don't think adding this is a good idea either. UnrealIRCd can run natively at "full speed" at Windows, adding the option to run it under cygwin would be a bad idea then -- since then people would be using it without knowing how bad idea it is, and.. well.. like I said, there's no reason to. One can already compile UnrealIRCd with free tools, being: the MS Visual Studio Developers Kit + Platform SDK :) |
