Hi Filip:
Yes that could work better so we have a single DLL and that does not consume RAM anyway ReactOS would be ready for a CPU downgrade too. btw I built some cvs snapshot today and saw the OARCH flag in the configuration file, the cpls being worked out mesa building (usable?), some text strings not in source code anymore. It failed at some point compiling explorer and I really needed to leave home but i'll keep playing with it for a while (not too much am on final exams almost)
Regards
Waldo

It's implemented in WinXP much easier than that. On startup it's
detected if the processor supports SYSCALL and the appropriate code is
sticked into the user shared page. The user mode code then just does jmp
at the place in user shared page and it uses the correct code. Easy ;-)

Hello.
I have problems on linux with missing _mingw.h with both gcc-3.4.1 and
3.4.2.
It is probably caused by the last cvs commit to
reactos/include/msvcrt/string.h file.
There is mingw32/include/_mingw.h in the cross compiler directory.
Thanks, David

On occasions I have grabbed the latest binaries and replaced the ReactOS
folder.
It always works for me and seems to be a very quick and easy way of updating
ROS without the need for burning a CD everytime.
I would say the binaries are very useful

Subject: [ros-dev] Binary download
Hi all
Do we really need the binary download anymore? The binary is highly
downloaded, but I suspect that those that do download it then proceed
to the iso/livecd/bochs/qemu downloads which are more usable (if they
aren't too frustrated at that point).
Should we remove it? Does anyone object to that?
Cheers
Jason

Hi Casper.
For some reason I assumed we were talking about the binaries on your site.
If your only talking about dropping the binaries on major releases via
sourceforge, then I don't see this causing a problem.

Unless it will fix a bug this shouldn't go to the release branch.
PS. We should write some rules in wiki about preparing for releases.
I can make a draft version unless someone else already beat me to it.

That's a good point. I suppose for that to work, it would need someone to
write an update script every day to patch the existing system. That doesn't
seem viable. It takes M$ a month to do theirs, lol.
What would be the best way of updating an existing system without the need
to a complete reinstall from a CD. Burning a CD everyday to get the latest
binaries would become tedious and expensive.
