Hello, I compiled successfully SVN on MINGW+MSYS but I got this error during the process:
/bin/sh /home/Carlo/subversion-1.8.3/libtool --tag=CC --silent --mode=compile gcc -std=c89 -DWIN32 -D__MSVCRT__ -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -g -O2 -g -O2 -I. /subversion/include -I./subversion -I/mingw/include/apr-1 - I/mingw/include/apr-1 -o subversion/libsvn_subr/win32_xlate.lo -c subversion/libsvn_subr/win32_xlate.c subversion/libsvn_subr/win32_xlate.c:81: error: redefinition of typedef 'win32_xlate_t' subversion/libsvn_subr/win32_xlate.h:30: error: previous declaration of 'win32_xlate_t' was here subversion/libsvn_subr/win32_xlate.c: In function `svn_subr__win32_xlate_to_stringbuf': subversion/libsvn_subr/win32_xlate.c:205: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast make: *** [subversion/libsvn_subr/win32_xlate.lo] Error 1 Actually, the subversion/libsvn_subr/win32_xlate.h declares some functions with an opaque structure called win32_xlate_t, but since the build process is feeding the option "-std=c89", it fails because it seems that the opaque and complete structures are not supported in that dialect at the same time. Probably, this defect has been never seen before because perhaps until now SVN for native Windows has been never compiled with GCC (cygwin is POSIX, not WIN32, so it does not count). The missing conformance to C89 can be resolved by either declaring the complete structure inside subversion/libsvn_subr/win32_xlate.h, or by making that parameter in those functions really opaque, with a pointer to void that it will be eventually casted later to win32_xlate_t. I have prepared two patches for this bug: each patch implements one of the two solutions described above so you can use the best for you (anyways, they are both easy fixes). Sincerely, Carlo Bramini.
