<div class="markdown_content"><p>Attempt to build using the mingw compiler on Windows XP using the real Sybase libs fails at link stage. Root cause is that the nasty tangle of #ifs in the Sybase csconfig.h header doesn't properly set CS_PUBLIC for this compiler, so header doesn't have the correct __stdcall attributes, causing the linker to fail (.o file has "blk_alloc", .lib has "_blk_alloc").</p> <p>Attached patch fixes this.... If I understand things, this should also fix similar issues with cygwin and other non-VisualStudio compilers, and should not hurt for VisualStudio, but I have no way of testing this claim.</p> <p>Patch should not affect FreeTDS users.</p> <p>I also have no way of knowing inf this is a problem or of testing this patch with other Sybase versions.</p></div>
