[Help-smalltalk] Cygwin?

[François-Denis Gonthier]

hello all,

I've got some small problem with building GNU Smalltalk on Cygwin.  I did
not find any documents or special instructions for building it on Cygwin so
I thought I might just ask on that mailing list for infos:

  First, it doesn't build with Tk, even with the --with-tk switch.  I tried
several path but none worked and Tcl/Tk was never detected by Cygwin.  Yes,
Tcl/Tk is installed :)

  Second: configure goes fine.  Build fails with the same error David Cargo
reported.

sysdep.c: In function `_gst_open_pipe':
sysdep.c:1163: warning: implicit declaration of function `spawnl'
sysdep.c:1163: `P_NOWAIT' undeclared (first use in this function)
sysdep.c:1163: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
sysdep.c:1163: for each function it appears in.)
make[3]: *** [sysdep.lo] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/z/cygwin/smalltalk-2.1/libgst'
make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/z/cygwin/smalltalk-2.1/libgst'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/z/cygwin/smalltalk-2.1'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Is there anywhere I can get instructions on how to build GNU Smalltalk on
Cygwin?

Thank you
