[omniORB] pb build omniORB for Windows

[Laurent.TESTARD at rsi-france.com]

Hello list,

I have some troubles using omniORB for windows with an application because 
some compile flags seem to conflict. My existing software needs the option 
"Code Generation" to be set to "Multithreaded" (/MT) and the libs which 
are bundled with omniORB-4.0.3 seem to have the "Multithread DLL" (/MD) 
flag set (am I right/wrong ?). I suspect that can be the cause of the 
crashes that occur while running my application in release mode.

Anyway I tried to build omniORB by myself by following the guidelines 
provided in the README.WIN32 file and I had some errors while building 
omniSSL.
As I never used cygwin before, I wonder if someone can give me a hint in 
order to correct this error or even bypass the build of omniSSL libs 
because I don't use it ? 


Some remarks about the README.WIN32 file :

- it mentions the file VCVARS.BAT but this file does not exist in VC++ 6, 
it is called VCVARS32.BAT instead.
- the URLs for python min do not lead to donwloadable files. A minimal 
python seems to be included in the bin directory of omniORB ? Is it 
necessary to download it in order to build the libs ?


Any help appreciated !

Laurent
