I would like to try a quick hack in XWin. So I follow the instruction in
http://cygwin.com/xfree/docs/cg/prog-build-native.html. But then, it
rebuild everything everytime. Is there a way to rebuild XWin without
having to redo everything (no clean, no doc, no fonts, no programs
execpt XWin, ....)?
The config files in xc/config/cf control what is built. Create a
host.def with your customizations. For example, mine that just builds
XWin.exe and supporting libraries looks like:
#define BuildLibraries YES
#define BuildServersOnly YES
#define XnestServer NO
#define BuildXprint NO
#define XprtServer NO
#define XVirtualFramebufferServer NO
This is run in a cut down source tree without fonts, docs, or most of
the programs. You will need to run a full "make World" from the base
directory to rebuild all the Makefiles etc. You can do "make" from
xc/programs/Xserver to rebuild all servers or
xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xwin to just do XWin.exe.
