[Yhc] Build error, when no C compiler

[Neil Mitchell]

Hi,

At home now, of course with no Visual Studio, and as a result:

scons: Reading SConscript files ...

Generating config.h with the following settings:

    WORDS_BIGENDIAN      None
    HAVE_LIBPTHREAD      0
    SIZEOF_LONG_LONG     None
    SIZEOF_LONG          None
    WIN32                1
    SIZEOF_VOIDP         None
    SIZEOF_CHAR          None
    SIZEOF_DOUBLE        None
    SIZEOF_FLOAT         None
    SIZEOF_INT           None
    HAVE_GCC_LABELS      0
    SIZEOF_SHORT         None

TypeError: int argument required:
  File "SConstruct", line 38:
    configure(env, Configure, ARGUMENTS) # Configure
  File "C:\Neil\yhc-devel\build\configure.py", line 97:
    config_h_build('config.h', 'config.h.new.in', vals)
  File "C:\Neil\yhc-devel\build\config_h.py", line 21:
    text = config_h_in.read() % defines

I guess we should check for a C compiler first.

Just for note, I'll probably try installing gcc rather than Visual
Studio (in fact gcc might already be installed here) - will gcc +
Windows work at all?

Thanks
