OS2/cygwin/mingw support |
Dear developers, The code to handle PE platforms (os2,cygwin,mingw) has lot of duplication, and since I only ever test mingw (using wine...) I cannot really fix them without taking the risk of breaking cygwin/os2. For example config/get_dlld has: cygwin) DLLDFLAGS="-Wl,--out-implib=\$(LIBPARI_SO)\$(_A),--export-all-symbols";; mingw) DLLDFLAGS="-Wl,--out-implib=\$(LIBPARI_SO)\$(_A)";; I have no idea why we use --export-all-symbols on cygwin and not on mingw. However the os2 code is worse in the sense it is almost a complete copy of the cygwin code and is probably totally untested, so maybe we should get rid of it. Cheers, Bill.
