about "[vorbis-dev] win32 question":

LV> DJGPP (www.delorie.com/djgpp) is a DOS version of GCC, mingw32 a Win32
LV> version of GCC. mingw32 is not the same as cygwin, cygwin is basically
LV> an entire unix environment built on top of windows in which you can
LV> build unix-like programs, while mingw32 uses the gcc compiler to create
LV> "real" win32 native apps.

LV> I hope that that's still accurate, I quit using Windows over a year ago

All correct Lourens. Unfortunately I don't use Cygwin so I can't tell
you if it has pathconf() or not.

Ah..eh...for Win32 we can stick to set

long pathconf(const char *name, int mode)
{
     switch(mode)
     {
         case _PC_LINK_MAX: return 1;
         case _PC_MAX_CANON: return 260; // IMO
         case _PC_MAX_INPUT: return 260;
         case _PC_NAME_MAX: return 255-strlen(name);
         case _PC_PATH_MAX: return 260;
         case _PC_PIPE_BUF: return 512; // whatever is appropriate
         // etc...
     }
}

well...this might need a bit more tweaking for some cases...that
depends.

keep in touch. berk.
