[Coin-ipopt] win32 (Borland) installation & tutorial (minor) error...

[Andreas Waechter]

Hi Antonello,

Thanks for letting me know about the typo in the documentation.  I will 
correct it in the next release.

As for compiling with the Borland compiler under Cygwin, I have to admit 
that I have never tried to do that.  You could just give it a try...

If you want, the two of us can see if we can make it work (in case you are 
not able to compile it), but we should do that off line (not via the 
mailing list).  The easier would be if you could try to configure/compile 
it and send me the config.log file (or if that worked, also the output of 
make).

The Cygwin stuff is still somewhat under development, and I'm actually in 
the process of changing it again (using the GNU tool libtool).

Regards,

Andreas
