As a preliminary note, I'd suggest sending future mails to the
sourceforge mailing list.
I am able to compile the above mentioned source under Linux after I
hunt down old versions of everything. I don't know if it will
compile under Windows. In any case, we have abandoned that line of
the source code and are working to get the wx2.4 version in shape.
Though we have no step by step instructions, I'm sure people on the
sourceforge list would be willing to help with any problems compiling
under windows. To get started under windows, I'd probably try the
following:
1. Grab the cygwin tools suite, including things like g++, bash,
make.
2. Grab the current CVS source using instructions on the jazz
sourceforge page. You could probably use the cvs client that comes
with the cygwin tools suite.
3. Run ./configure and make and either:
a) Fix what breaks and send us patches.
b) Complain about what breaks and hope that somebody knows
what to do. :)
At the very moment I'm writing this mail, the configure script is not
in the CVS. I will be adding it very shortly. Technically, if you
have the autoconf, automake tools installed, you don't need it. If
you have those tools installed, you could try the ./rebuild script.
