SWT Crash Problem with MingW/GCJ (UPDATED)

[John Murga]

Hey

JohnM>> I don't think it has ever built natively very well... MSYS itself has some
JohnM>> serious problems when trying to build the whole of GCC anyway (it runs out

ME> John: are you referring to the latest version of MSYS? And to your knowledge, is

Sorry, I haven't been able to check mail for a few days...

Latest version of MSYS on Win2k with FAT 32 was giving me these problems, it
is possible that it worked with NTFS... But I do remember other people
reporting the problem when building other things so it was simpler for me to
just host the compiler under Cygwin.

Cheers
