New issue 64 by hume...@gmail.com: make snappy compilation using msvc
http://code.google.com/p/snappy/issues/detail?id=64

snappy_test.h line 47 sys/time.h is not present in MSVC, so it should be  
protected by macro and configure scripts should be updated correspondingly.

#ifdef HAVE_SYS_TIME_H
#include <sys/time.h>
#endif

there are some compilation complains under msvc under win32/64 build, I'd  
examine them and see if there should be some patch to suppress them.

Hi,

The missing include guard is fixed in r66. As of warnings, it's  
nigh-impossible to keep a project warning free on a compiler you don't even  
have; thus I doubt we're going to make an effort ourselves to fix MSVC  
warnings, but feel free to send patches as long as they don't uglify the  
rest of the code.

Hi sesse:
   Yes, I agree with you that compiler warning free is not necessary, there  
are some warnings under win64 build because size_t is 64bit and long is  
32bit under win64, some cast trunctions may cause problems though, maybe  
these need some instigation, snappy is excel at speed and compression  
ratio, thanks for your effort.
