[MINC-users] redefinitions in volume_io/basic.h, multidim.h causing compilation errors on Windows

[Audette, Michel]

Hi Rupert, 

nice to hear from you. 

I'm not trying anything fancy. I would just like to link with the dlls that I got from the BIC website, under MS VC++ 2003, and the compiler does not like some of the header files that I'm including... 

Based on your text, it sounds like you know more about this issue than anyone else in MINCland. Is there a wiki that you could annotate, if you could manage to find the time? 

Best wishes, 

Michel

hi Michel,

Are you actually rebuilding the MINC library under windows?  As I'm
sure you know, I managed to build it natively under windows but with a
certain amout of pain.

It sounds like you got past this specific problem, but if others are
interested maybe its time to re-discuss building MINC on windows.  It
would be great to have the support integrated right in the source,
with minimal pain necessary.

So far, my experience was that to build it natively, i had to make
minor mods to hdf_convenience.c to adhere to ANSI c, standards
(variable declarations), and i forcibly removed the dll_exports and
built it statically.  I got minc2 and volume_io to build, and more
than half of the minc tools.  However, those that require flex/bison,
and the conversion build tree I was never successful with.

Of course, one can build it under cygwin, but this has the
disadvantage of requiring cygwin, and requiring anything else built
against it to also use cygwin.
