in reply to [Win32] Building Gnome2::VFS

Anyone happen to know the secret to getting these symbols resolved on Win32 ?

Your only hope is to re-re-re-re-re-recompile :) then, maybe it will work; If it doesn't, you have to tweak the symbol list somehow (i forget how its done, you add export keyword, or some such)

    Downloaded the source, and eventually managed to satisfy all of configure's requirements. Compilation looked good for a while .... until the non-existent (on windows) netinet/in.h could not be found.

    UPDATE: Including winsock.h (or was it winsock2.h ?) instead of netinet/in.h in whichever header it was that was throwing the error, enabled the build to succeed - but the same undefined references srill crop up and I'm still undecided as to what needs doing. When I can be bothered, I'll probably contact the developers for some advice.

    Obviously configure isn't doing all it ought. I might try an earlier version of gnome-vfs later on and, if that doesn't work, just submit a bug report and forget about the whole buggy mess until next time.

    Cheers,
    Rob
