[patch]MinGW compile

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,

and thanks for stm32flash. A small patch is needed for compiling stm32flash 
with MinGW (Windows 7)

The resulting .exe is able to read and write a controller:) :)
There are a few minor glitches though:

a) specifying a non-existant (or in-use) com port does not give an error (see 
"ad a)" below).
b) trying to read from a device if it is not in bootloader mode sometimes 
causes an assert (see "ad b)" below).
c) the control sequences for the progress indicator don't match (seems CR is 
not seen).

Greetings,
Frieder

Can you not specify an include path instead in the compiler options as is done 
for POSIX systems? eg: -I../

In absence of the maintainer, I have set up a git repository where I will try 
to incorporate all outstanding patches: 
https://gitorious.org/stm32flash/stm32flash#more

I made a patch reorganizing all Makefiles and taking care of this issue, in the 
issue16 branch. Comments are welcome.

I have merged the Makefile changes and the other outstanding patches to my 
"merging" branch, where I have also added a fix for the progress indicator (c) 
on Windows. Also the assertion (b) has been replaced by an error message. It 
builds and runs fine on MinGW/Windows 7 (tested read from flash).

For a non-existing COM port (a) stm32flash will now at least report that it 
failed to open the device. This can be improved to retrieve more details from 
the operating system. It should be possible to use GetLastError() and compare 
with ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND, or get any error string with FormatMessage().

This has now been fixed in the official repository and is included in version 
0.3beta2.
