I am getting conflicts just my using your build stuff. Could you remove zexyconf.h from CVS since its dynamically generated? Otherwise this will require manual intervention after automatic builds.

i see. this is indeed a problem. the reason why zexyconf.h is checked in, is that you can also build zexy with M$VC without running configure first: in this case nobody will create the zexyconf.h file, which - imho - makes building overcomplicated (i don't think it is an option to tell people to copy zexyconf.h.in to zexyconf.h and edit to their needs).
That sounds good. I think its far too much work to support every compiler under the sun. I like gcc on all platforms.
Yes black and white is easier than colour. But if MS has made the OS then MS 's compiler is likely to be the best for that platform. There are only three (3) platforms that anyone here has ever mentioned. gcc is really good on linux. Martin
Actually Apple uses gcc as its native compiler also, and they contribute a lot to gcc as well. I am not opposed to people using the Windows compilers. But most of the stuff in CVS does not compile with the Windows compilers. Basically everything compiles with gcc on Windows.
Its a lot of work to support the Microsoft compiler, and so far no one is really doing it, besides little bits here and there.
Also, since Pd is free software, it makes sense that it should be buildable with free software. Right now, Windows and ASIO are the the only non-free parts. A ReactOS build would fix that.
