Re: [Q] StepTalk Build on Windows OS

[S.J.Chun]

I've tested :-)

Several problems newly occurred!!
1. Languages/Smalltalk, NSString+additions.m not found but included in the 
GNUmakefile
2. Languages/Smalltalk itself needs libStepTalk but this requirement is not 
correctly specified in the GNUmakefile, so
    in the process of linking, it failed (like I've stated in the previous 
mail). To build, I've added 
    Smalltalk_BUNDLE_LIBS = -L../../Source/shared_obj -lStepTalk
    to the GNUmakefile. I'm not sure this is correct way
3. Finders/DistributedFinder is the same case as 2. Actually 
DistributedFinder_BUNDLE_LIBS is specified but
    -L../../Source/shared_obj for library location is not.
4. Modules/ObjectiveC is also the same case; ObjectiveC_BUNDLE_LIBS should be 
specified with library location, 
    instead of StelTalk_BUNDLE_LIBS.
5. Finally, path manipulation, I think this is related to NSPathUtilities, is 
somewhat obscured. I'm not sure all errors
   are related to this, but after successful build, the application does not 
work. stupdate_languages itself does not
   work. It just want to write configuration file to the wrong location(which 
does not exist).  I'm also not sure whether
   this is related to MSys environment or not.

Hope this can help your debugging and my StepTalk life. :-)

  Fixed on CVS. Can someone test it, please?
