RE: [Gcl-devel] 2.5.4

[Page, Bill]

Mike,

Where does the Windows version look for the XDR/rpc libraries
and/or header files? Do you have a recommended MinGW/msys
configuration?

Since you are most active on the MinGW forum as well, are you
planning (or have you already) contacted Earnie Boyd about
the ONC rpc libraries? (see messages below).

BTW, with your help I did manage also to build a Windows
version of GCL 2.5.2 with XDR support for Axiom testing using
the ONC library. Thanks. But I have not tested it much yet.

Cheers,
Bill Page.
