[TinyOWS-dev] Building TinyOWS from sources on Windows

[Alexander Bruy]

Hi list,

I try to build TinyOWS from svn (r440) on Windows  with MS Visual
Studio 2008 Express.
I install PostgreSQL 9 and PostGIS 1.5, also there is OSGeo4W
installation with libxml2
and regexp (includes and lib files).

Then I edit nmake.opt and setup path for all components. When I run
nmake from VS command
promp I get this message

F:\tinyows\build>nmake Makefile.vc



Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility   Version 7.00.8882

        copy /y src\ows_define.h.in src\ows_define.h

Files copied:         1.

NMAKE : fatal error U1073: don't know how to make 'src\sld\sld.h'

Stop.


Well, I search source dir and seems that there is no src\sld\sld.h,
so I remove all references to this file from Makefile and run nmake again.
Here is output:

F:\tinyows\build>nmake Makefile.vc

Any hints how to build TinyOWS from sources on Windows?

Thanks
