Cannot compile in Windows #23

Closed deltasquare4 closed 10 years ago

deltasquare4 commented 11 years ago

First things first, does this module work on Windows? (I figured it did, because windows-specific headers are included in fs-ext.cc)

I am unable to build it on Windows 7. The error says: Cannot open include file: 'sys/file.h': No such file or directory

I already have all the dependencies listed in node-gyp Readme installed. Am I missing something here?

Thanks in advance.

I don't have a way to test on Windows, so was kind of relying on people with dev experience there to help. There's some level of effort to be Windows compatible, but no active development effort for it.

Not sure what else to say - unless I can get a patch to make it compile/work on Windows I don't know how to move forwards.

Thanks for the reply. I did some preliminary research on that, and figured the windows thing was broken. I'll see what I can do in my spare time. Thanks.

I sent a pull request with patch to make it compile/work(tested flock only) in windows.

Thanks @SaikiranDaripelli.
