I was finally able to fix this error. The problem was that the Win32 API
is not part of the mingw distribution we use. I installed a Windows
Perl, and now it works.

After I fixed this, I had some problems with the mex script. In mingw
the "%*" that is used in the script to forward all arguments of the
script to the perl command does not work, it has to be a "$@" for me. I
wonder why this script is needed at all. It would be probably better to
define this in the makefile itself. The matlab folder could be set in
the environment. Then, the -o argument was not accepted, for me it has
to be -output. I attached a patch for that, maybe you can check it.

Unfortunatly, I get now some compile errors:
[...]
gcc  -DRTI_USES_STD_FSTREAM -D_GNU_SOURCE -c -DMATLAB_MEX_FILE -x c++
-oC:\DOKUME~1\PATRICK\LOKALE~1\TEMP\MEX_3C~1\rti.obj

RTI\rti.cpp:38:23: fatal error: arpa/inet.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

Hi, thanks for that. Yes, I'm working with Windows. This works perfectly
(well, except the error above ;-))

Hi, actually that is not correct. The "d" behind the name specifies that
this is the debug version of CERTI.

If you compile it in Release mode, the d is gone again. In order to do
this, you have to set the CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE to "Release" I guess.
