Hi Peter,

I fixed the problem with phytronAxisMotor back in March and committed to SVN.

I fixed many problems with NewportSrc on May 6 to get it to build on Cygwin, which is also much more sensitive to the correct name decorations than the Visual Studio release compiler.  I committed those fixes to SVN as well.  I have not tried building the win32-x86-debug arch, but my fixes for Cygwin may well have fixed those problems.

Can you try checking out the SVN trunk from /https://subversion.xray.aps.anl.gov/synApps/motor/trunk/  and see if there are still problems?

Mark

Subject: Motor R6-9 build issues on Windows

Hi,

I would like to highlight some build issues, on Windows, with the R6-9 release of the Motor project.

I am building with the following library versions:

a.       Base 3.15.1

b.      Seq 2.1.15

c.       Ipac 2-10

d.      Asyn 4-26

Trivial issue: phytronAxisMotor.cpp #includes unistd.h – which is not a header file under Windows.
Fix: The file isn’t required, as far as I can see, and can be removed.

Non-trivial issue: A release-x86 build completes normally, but  a debug-x86 build fails with numerous DLL linker warnings and errors (see attached).
I’m not sure I understand why a debug build is so much more sensitive to these problems, than is a release build.

I would be able to address many of the build issues.

Thanks,

Peter.
