Re: [libdbi-devel] Patch(over 0.8.0pre3) for compiling libdbi core on mingw+msys

[Ashish R. <ash...@ya...>]

Actually it is already a known issue for mingw in
general , but it is going to give a problem only in
some cases of multi-threaded programs. And already in
libdbi, there is no guranteed careful study on
re-entrant code (as much i know), hence for now we can
afford to do with it. Later on i will take up this
issue separately for mingw+msys enhancements. My right
now aim is let the libdbi be up and running on
mingw+msys for the non-reentrant code. As mingw has a
large user-base in open surce community on ms-windows.

bye :-)
