hi, ive been trying to compile windrop, i want it the same as the standard precompiled version with ssl... the only difference is i want the msgrate value in /src/mod/server.mod/server.c changed from 2 to 0.

ive been tearing my hair out trying to get cygwin to work.. but im having no luck.

is there anyone that can do me a huge favour, spare a few minutes and compile it for me and .rar it on rapidshare or something?

ive tried following the instructions.. however i have error problems with cygwin which will not let me run through the procedures, which is why ive asked for help.

i would have done it myself otherwise.

Go to the Cygwin site; all the documentation/information you need is there.

Cygwin is not all that difficult to install. You do, however, must ensure that you follow the instructions for installing Tcl carefully; you also need to install gcc and mingw-runtime.

Might also be helpful to post actual error msgs regarding cygwin. It should install seamlessly. I would guess you don't have the devel packages installed..

i managed to get over my errors by compiling on a different system.

however i now have some more errors during the make eggdrop process

You did configure on a different system? That would likely be the source of the problem, the errors are from configure setting the wrong options for the system you're compiling on.

sorry what i meant was, i switched to another system for the entire process.

im getting those errors when trying to compile with the ssl patch.

i can compile windrop fine now without ssl, which will do for the time being.

the reason i wanted to compile myself was to change the msgrate value to 0, so i can pass information through the irc server more quickly. now ive compiled it with the changed setting, there is no difference in the information delay.. ie. the bot sends 5 lines of text instantly and then there is a delay of some seconds for every 2 lines after that.

is there something in the process of compiling windrop that makes no difference as to whether this value is changed or not?

Are you using putquick?

yes ive tried using putquick, and also putdccraw.

ok an update on this.

ive compiled windrop a few times now.. with msgrate set to 0, 1 and 5.

with the value at 5 it passes one line to a channel every 5 seconds ok. with msgrate set at 1, putserv passes 1 line to a channel per second.

if i change this to putquick and putquick -next with msgrate set to 1, it starts to pass 2 lines to a channel every 2 seconds (with a 2 second delay).

the same happens as above (2lines and then a 2 second gap) with whatever put method i use with msgrate set to 0.

so as it seems the msgrate values are working properly, is there anything else in the file system of windrop/eggdrop that could be causing the delay?
