Hi all,

I've made a new home for librsync in <https://github.com/librsync/librsync>. Pretty nice to see it's still useful and used after 14 years!

I'd like to maintain librsync a little more actively again, starting by getting a clean build on modern compilers, seeing what new tests can be added, and merging patches people have done elsewhere. I hope to make a new release in the next month or so. If you've fixed bugs in your own fork, please do get in touch on libr...@googlegroups.com

I am also going to migrate the lists from Sourceforge to Google Groups partly for the sake of better spam/moderation management:

Hi Martin,
         Thanks for the update. Just last week I compiled librsync as a dll from the sourceforge page on windows using Code::Blocks. I have made a Code::Blocks project for the dll. If you want I can send that to you to add for the PC build. Since Code::Blocks is cross platform I think the same project should work on other platforms as well. I had tried cygwin and Visual Studio express 2013 but nothing worked for me. For Codeblocks I had to make a change in the snprintf.c file. I had to comment the #define HAVE_VARARGS_H line and add the line #define HAVE_STDARG_H otherwise it gives errors. After that I was able to generate tne use the dll properly.

Thanks,
Milind

Hi Milind,

If you can separate those changes out into things that are generally applicable (ie they won't break the build elsewhere), I would be happy to merge them in. Or if you aren't sure how to do that, put up a pull request anyhow and we can talk about it.

Thanks
Martin

-old lists

Which compiler are you using inside of Code::Blocks?
