LibreOffice SDK on Windows

For the record, here is my status of using the SDK of a recent (post 
<http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=5051209534c8a2034dcb0016d4a8fe29dcb2947b> 
"Adapt SDK to usage of msvcrtd for Windows --enable-dbgutil") master 
build (--enable-dbgutil even) on Windows:

I use the SDK on the Windows 7 machine I also do the LO build on (at 
C:\lo\core), so that machine already had Visual Studio and a JDK installed.

As a prerequisite, install 
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Installer/mingw-get-inst/mingw-get-inst-20120426/mingw-get-inst-20120426.exe/download> 
and, in Command Prompt do:

> > cd C:\MinGW
> > mingw-get update
> > mingw-get install msys-zip

For testing ure/source/uretest/Makefile, additionally do:

> > mingw-get install msys-coreutils
> > mingw-get install msys-sed

Then, in Command Prompt do:

> > cd C:\lo\core\solver\wntmsci12\installation\opt\sdk
> > setsdkenv_windows.bat

and do the first-time configuration as necessary.  The results for me are:

>  ******************************************************************
>  *
>  * SDK environment is prepared for Windows
>  *
>  * SDK = C:\lo\core\solver\wntmsci12\installation\opt\sdk
>  * Office = C:\lo\core\solver\wntmsci12\installation\opt
>  * URE = C:\lo\core\solver\wntmsci12\installation\opt\URE

>  * Java = C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_11
>  * Special Output directory = c:\libreoffice4.1.0.0.alpha0+_sdk
>  * Auto deployment = YES
>  *
>  ******************************************************************

Then, to see things are working at least minimally, continue with

> > cd examples\cpp\counter
> > mingw32-make
> > mingw32-make countermain.run

At least with my current build, the ure/source/uretest/Makefile test:

> > cd C:\lo\core\ure\source\uretest
> > mingw32-make

still fails the test-javanative with:

> set URE_MORE_TYPES=file:///C:/lo/core/ure/source/uretest/out.sdk/types.rdb && set 
> URE_MORE_SERVICES=file:///C:/lo/core/ure/source/uretest/out.sdk/services.rdb &&  "C:\Program

but test-cpptest, test-javateset, and
the (manual) test-clientserver all work.  No idea yet what is broken there.

If anybody has insight into my two questions at 
<http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=5051209534c8a2034dcb0016d4a8fe29dcb2947b> 
"Adapt SDK to usage of msvcrtd for Windows --enable-dbgutil," that would 
be appreciated:

> * The old settings.mk was apparently confused with using /MT ("link with
>   LIBCMT.LIB") on cl command line and /MD ("link with MSVCRT.LIB") on link
>   command line (where it was ignored), and you apparently can't pass both
>   together to cl, so I settled on /MD (resp. /MDd) now and dropped /MT (resp.
>   /MTd).  No idea if that is exactly right, however.

>   msvcrt.lib vs. msvcrtd.lib on Windows.  Adapted examples Makefiles and
