Hello,
OmniORB build on Windows is today supported with the Cygwin emulation layer, but not with the MSYS2 one.
While trying to do so, things go quite well, except a few issues:
1- MT.exe options are still prefixed by '/' (replace by '-')
2- "egrep" symbolic link not followed (replace by "grep -E")
3- DUMPBIN.exe option is still prefixed by '/' (hacked by '//', but no portable solution yet)
Below is our patch to show the needed changes for better Cygwin/MSYS2 portability.
Note: 'MFLD:' tag is for questions, and changes in configuration is to show our build context.
Thanks,
