Xapian devel - Apr 2007 - trunk build failure on msvc

I'm currently seeing:

utils.cc
c:\src\xapian\xapian-core\common\utils.h(84) : error C2061: syntax error :
identifier 'mode_t'
c:\src\xapian\xapian-core\common\utils.h(85) : error C2065: 'mode' :
undeclared identifier

I *think* I've done everything correctly this time in terms of updating svn
and rebuilding :)

My solution was to add:

typedef int mode_t;

to safestat.h - and I guess the signature of mkdir in that file should
change to mode_t too?

Cheers,

I've made a bit of an attempt to setup xapian building on our
'buildbot'
(basically a Python version of 'tinderbox').  At
http://buildbot.enfoldsystems.com/all/, the right-most column is a build
called 'xapian-msvc', and it is currently failing with the same error I
reported earlier.  I can't find a better link that shows only this project
and the logfiles from the most recent build.

This might not be reliable yet - I don't believe it will see SVN checkins
and rebuild, but if you enter the '#enfold' IRC channel on freenode and
send
a message to 'enfold-buildbot: force build xapian-msvc', it should
magically
happen.  I'll see if I can get this resolved over the next few days.

I hope it turns out to be useful!
