Okay I will check the configuration properly. Thanks, Aaron
Got a clean build and install now :))) Many thanks for all your help. Wish I had known a few basic things about Cygwin and GNU before tackling this. A few last things ...> Okay I will check the configuration properly.I can do without doxygen, and etags, for now, but need runtest, what about tcl, and dot. Okay got runtest, and doxygen now. Cannot find tcl on Cygwin, I may allready have it ??? Whats 'dot', do I really need it and where do I get it ??? Presumably I need these for 'make check' ? Aaron
dot is part of the graphviz project. it is used by doxygen to generate the inheritance and collaboration diagrams. You can get it from www.graphviz.org. You don't have to have it, its only used to build the documentation which you can find online anyway. You don't need this for "make check". Reid.
