[Mapserver-users] mapserver4.0 compilation under w2000

[Michael Schulz]

Hi Ed, Gayathri,

But how to make "only" the regex.obj target, there is no such target 
(which Makefile do you mean?) - do i have to edit the makefile.in and 
add such a target manually?!

Thanks again for your help, i know this is annoying (especially because 
i already managed to do it some time ago ;-))

Cheers, Michael
