Hi all
Stimulated by the discussions during the Radiance workshop in Fribourg, we tried to compile the head release on Windows. It failed in many files. We fixed a lot of the problems, so most of the commandline programs no run fine.
So the important question to Greg and Schorsch is: how can I check in the sources?

writing to the CVS is handled via an ssh login to the machine, thereby requiring a userid on it.
While there's no compelling reason not to extend the inner circle of folks with write access (currently three, including one not doing anything (me)),
I'd suggest that syncronization is easier if its either fed through Greg or Schorsch.
Let me know if that's feasible or not,

Hi Siegbert,
You should definitely send your source changes to Schorsch, as he is managing the Windows component. This is good timing, as we hope to make an official release, soon.
Thanks, and nice talking to you at the workshop.

Last time I tried, everything that is included in the SCons build
went through without a problem. Did you use SCons to build? It
does a few things differently than the traditional makefiles.
So the reasons why you had to fix some files may be caused by the
build procedure, by changes that happened since my last try, or
maybe even by a different compiler version.
The SCons build has the advantage that it works the same on all
platforms. It has the disadvantage that it doesn't directly
interact with the VisualStudio environment on Windows, which
prevents graphical debugging. Actually, SCons should be able to
generate VS project files. I'll try this feature some time next
week, unless you manage to get it working before me...

If you ran the build with SCons, send me the changes.
If you built your own project files manually, then you may not
have included/linked to all the right files, so at least some of
your changes may turn out to be redundant.

Yes, we used SCons to build. I could not check, wether the
problems were old or not. One was the void problem, already
discussed here a few days ago, another was a goto adress, which
did not exist.

I will try it next week. (I already stopped working this week.)
If you ran the build with SCons, send me the changes.
SCons selected VisualStudio 7.0 for the build, I will also try it
with VisualStudio 6 and then send you the changes.
Happy weekend

I tried to generate the Win32 project files from SCons using the MSVSProject() function, but SCons told me something like "function not found". It seems, that the generation of VS projects files does not work at the moment. I found at note regarding this point in the SCons Wiki: http://www.scons.org/cgi-bin/wiki/ExtendedExample. But I am not familiar with Python, maybe I only missed something.
