[GRASS-dev] Re: [Qgis-developer] Windows native GRASS build

[Tim Sutton]

Hi

For those interested, I have uploaded the complete msys environemnt
that Tisham Dhar and myself set up here:

http://qgis.org/uploadfiles/msys/msys.tar.gz

Its around 230mb since I have not run make clean in the source dirs
and stripped away unneeeded stuff. However it contains a complete
build environment for making grass (along with numerous other FOSS GIS
stuff) under msys / windows. The GRASS in there is an anonynous
checkout from head and a cvs client is included in teh msys so you can
cvs update grass from in the msys shell.

Regards

Tim
