[XviD-devel] VFW cygwin support ?

[Edouard Gomez]

I remembered someone added cywin  support to vfw, i found his homepage
with files.

So i did some work on them, and i have a working patch for vfw. I know
there are two  branches in vfw module (dev-api-3  and head). Which one
do i commit to ?

And i have another question (probably stupid, but this seems natural to a unix guy) :

  - why are you building a static lib in xvidcore
  - then build a vfw that exports core symbols ?

For me it would be more natural to have something like that :
  - Build a dll libxvidcore.dll that exports xvid API (xvid_init,
    xvid_encore, xvid_decore)
  - Build the vfw driver on top of the libxvidcore.dll
  - Vfw driver exports usual vfw symbols (Configure, DriverEntry iirc)

For me it seems more logical that xvidcore exports its symbols and vfw
driver exports  its symbols. I think  it's not logical to  build a vfw
driver to have access to xvidcore. Comments are welcome.
