wrapper build WTF

[idldmit]

Trying to build cpp wrapper for cygwin and facing inconsistency below. Is this a dev joke?

include/base/internal/cef_logging.h

Code: Select all

#if defined(OS_WIN)
typedef unsigned long SystemErrorCode;


libcef_dll/base/cef_logging.cc

Code: Select all

#if defined(OS_WIN)
// This has already been defined in the header, but defining it again as DWORD
// ensures that the type used in the header is equivalent to DWORD. If not,
// the redefinition is a compile error.
typedef DWORD SystemErrorCode;

Cygwin is not supported. You should build using standard platform tools (e.g. cmd.exe and Visual Studio on Windows).

Cygwin is just what I'm using to build it (by the way it was successfully done).
The initial problem is not related to building tools. This pitfall is totally coded and as per dev comment, it will fall all the time because type declarations are different when OS_WIN is defined.
Am I missing something?
