Re: Native-comp branch compilation error on Windows

[Liāu , Kiong-Gē 廖宮毅]

It seems the case, here's the partial content of epaths.h:

/* Together with PATH_SITELOADSEARCH, this gives the default value of
   load-path, which is the search path for the Lisp function "load".
   Configure (using "make epaths-force") sets this to
   ${standardlisppath}, which typically has a value like:
   <datadir>/emacs/VERSION/lisp where datadir is eg /usr/local/share.
*/
#define PATH_LOADSEARCH "%emacs_dir%/share/emacs/28.0.50/lisp"

/* Like PATH_LOADSEARCH, but contains the non-standard pieces.
   These are the site-lisp directories.  Configure sets this to
   ${locallisppath}, which typically defaults to something like:
   <datadir>/emacs/VERSION/site-lisp:<datadir>/emacs/site-lisp
   but can be overridden by the --enable-locallisppath argument.
   This is combined with PATH_LOADSEARCH to make the default load-path.
   If the --no-site-lisp option is used, this piece is excluded.
*/
#define PATH_SITELOADSEARCH
"%emacs_dir%/share/emacs/28.0.50/site-lisp;%emacs_dir%/share/emacs/site-lisp"

/* Like PATH_LOADSEARCH, but used only during the build process
   when Emacs is dumping.  Configure (using "make epaths-force-w32") sets
   this to $buildlisppath, which normally has the value: <srcdir>/lisp.
*/
#define PATH_DUMPLOADSEARCH
"C:/msys64/home/VWinUser0/Downloads/emacs/native-comp/src/lisp"

It seems the %emacs_dir% part is not expanded
