I suppose Cygwin isn't exactly a prime platform for cvsnt but because of incompatibilities between good old RCS tools and CVSNT repository files I'm trying to find out if a Cygwin version could be built. The reason is that I'm running ViewCVS and some scripts under Cygwin to have a more Unix-like environment. Unfortunately Cygwin RCS tools choke on some CVSNT RCS files. I tried enabling the direct Python parsing of the RCS files but that broke diffing functionality. :( Since ViewCVS under Cygwin doesn't seem to like the idea of using Windows version of CVSNT I tried to build a Cygwin version. Unfortunately the build bombs out with errors. Some of those I could fix by adding more header files but I can't figure out what to change to get the cvsapi SocketIO stuff to build. Has anyone else tried to build CVSNT 2.5.01 under Cygwin ? - Jari
