[openamq-dev] problems building on Windows

[Nick Levine]

I was trying to build OpenAMQ-1.2c1 on Windows XP, with
BOOM_MODEL=st,debug

I got a raft of errors. Maybe the first one wasn't important (it's
hard to tell):

    Warning: ignoring unknown project: xml_nonthreaded - Win32 Debug
    Error: There are no valid targets to build.
    This workspace file is corrupted: it contains more than one project called 'xml'.
    Those extra projects will be removed from the workspace.

But the next one was "fatal":

    Generating Code...
    Compiling...
    apr_uri.c
    apr_xml.c
    C:\tmp\ibase\src\OpenAMQ-1.2c1\foreign-1.1d4\apr\apr-util\xml\apr_xml.c(31) : fatal error C1083: Can
    not open include file: 'expat.h': No such file or directory
    Generating Code...
    Error executing cl.exe.

    aprutil-1.lib - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
    boomvs E: build FAILED

Indeed, there was no file called expat.h anywhere in the tree. There is
however a "expat.h.in", located here:
    ./foreign-1.1d4/apr/apr-util/xml/expat/lib/expat.h.in

Should some configuration have processed this? I guess it should: I
changed BOOM_MODEL to mt,release and the compilation went ahead OK.

I don't _need_ it built single-threaded, I'm only building to test run
it. But maybe this can be fixed (or a warning placed on the website),
as an aid to the next person to come along...

Thanks,
