We could change APR to use NtCreateFile() instead of what ever it
is using and have done with all the whining about how inferior
windows is :-) :-) :-)
Of course, we might need to move to NtQueryDirectoryFile for
directory enumeration :-) :-) :-)
Both these functions are even documented in MSDN these days...
well, you have to look under ZwQueryDirectoryFile... but it's
the same function.
Between these two insignificant changes, most of the syntactical
problems running on windows should go straight away! (And an
option in the config to use case sensitive file names would shut
up the rest.)
:-) :-) :-)
Thanks,
Joseph
