[Mono-devel-list] runtime build got broken under windows

[Marek Safar]

Hello Atsushi,

I updated mono one week ago and it works *almost* fine on my box.

Ouch, you are lucky guy, I have to define --with-gc=none because without
it compilation is OK but any mono.exe start leads to crash.

Here is the suspect

2004-08-18 Zoltan Varga <vargaz at freemail.hu>

* appdomain.c threads.c: Call GC_CreateThread on windows.

* Makefile.am (libmetadata_la_LIBADD): Avoid linking libmonoos into
multiple libraries since this don't work on windows.
