gnustep-base on windows

[Marko Riedel]

Hi all,

I downloaded the installer from 

  http://ftpmain.gnustep.org/pub/gnustep/binaries/windows/

and everything compiled without even the slightest hitch!

Congratulations!

Next I tried to compile the permutation enumeration recipe from my GNUstep
cookbook. Unbelievable! The program runs and its output is correct.

Good work, people!

I do have one problem, however. My profile does not reside on the local
hard drive, but on a file server. It seems GNUstep cannot handle network
drives yet. First it complained about not being able to create
GNUstep/Defaults, so I created them manually. This gives the following
trace.

2005-02-04 16:35:07.000 permenum.exe[936] Failed to create lock directory

Datenträgerbezeichnung ist falsch.

The file 'c:\GNUstep\System\.GNUsteprc' is writable by someone other than
its owner.
Ignoring it.

The translation of the German is: "the syntax used in the
file/directory/medium is wrong."

Can you help me out here? Additional question: what's the status of
gnustep-gui on windows?

Best regards,

Marko
