[omniORB] Cygwin / g++ / build omniORB from source

[Irvine, Chuck R [LTD]]

I'm trying to build and install omniORB 4.1.0beta2 using cygwin and g++.
I'm having trouble so, first, I'm wondering if this is even supposed to
work. Is it? If so, here are my problems:

1. Conflicting type errors for 'getline' (see below). Based on an email
to the cygwin mailing list, I tried to work around this my commenting
out the getline declaration in usr/include/sys/stdio.h. This seemed to
work.

gcc -c -O -DDEBUG -I. -I../../../../src/tool/omkdepend
-I../../../include -I../../../../include -D__OSVERSION__=2 -D__linux__
-D__cygwin__ -D__x86__ -o include.o
../../../../src/tool/omkdepend/include.c
In file included from /usr/include/sys/types.h:372,
from /usr/include/stdio.h:46,
from ../../../../src/tool/omkdepend/def.h:31,
from ../../../../src/tool/omkdepend/include.c:30:
/usr/include/cygwin/types.h:43: error: parse error before "loff_t"
In file included from ../../../../src/tool/omkdepend/include.c:30:
../../../../src/tool/omkdepend/def.h:131: error: conflicting types for
'getline'
/usr/include/sys/stdio.h:31: error: previous declaration of 'getline'
was here
../../../../src/tool/omkdepend/def.h:131: error: conflicting types for
'getline'
/usr/include/sys/stdio.h:31: error: previous declaration of 'getline'
was here



2. I get "/usr/include/cygwin/types.h:43: error: parse error before
"loff_t" (See above). Being very rusty I can't really see anything wrong
with the declaration for loff_t in /usr/include/cygwin/types.h. However,
I commented this out hoping it would be ok.



3. After making the change in step 2, eveything seemed to compile
alright, but then I get tons of undefined reference errors. An excerpt
of them are:

Any advice would be immensely appreciated!!
