[xsd-users] Compile problem with CygWin

[Boris Kolpackov]

Hi Steve,

In the future please send technical questions like these to the
xsd-users mailing list (which I've CC'ed) instead of to me directly.
This way other developers who may have experienced a similar problem
can provide you with a solution. Plus questions and answers will be
archived and available to others with similar problems.

Yes, it is possible to pre-configure everything in a fairly
generic way. Seeing that there has been quite a few requests
like this, I created a package which contains XSD 3.2.0 with
all its prerequisites (except Xerces-C++ and Boost) as well 
as a non-interactive build script:

See the README file inside for details and let me know if you
run into any problems.

Since it is Debian-based then that means it has the GNU toolchain.
I would expect everything to compile without any problems. What
errors are you getting?
