[Freeciv-Dev] Re: Problem Compiling Client Under OpenVMS With DEC C.

[Andy Black <blackaw@xxxxxxx>]

Greetings.

I was the one having problems with the two attirbute.h files.  This 
was for the Cocoa (OS X) port that I've worked some on.  One of my 
patches partly handled the renaming (I checked back and found I 
missed a few files).
I have not had a chance to check Jason's patch, but I suspect it is a 
more elegant way to deal with the problem.  I'm glad to see I'm not 
the only one who had that problem.
On a side note, has anyone tried compiling the stub client recently? 
Some of the generic header files have changed, and I think it might 
not compile.
