[rrd-developers] Building rrdtool v1.3.8 on win32

[Barrie]

Hi Tobi,

I have a script that does the following.

  * creates and populates the RRD with test data - works OK
 * produces a png graph - works OK
 * extracts the RRD data to an xml file - works OK
 * creates a new RRD from the XML - works OK
 * produces a png graph from the new RRD - works OK
 * fetches a number of data points from the RRD - works OK
 * returns the date of the first data sample in RRD and the new RRD - 
fails with an error like ERROR: 'test.rrd' is too small (should be 5676 
bytes)
 * returns the date of the last data sample in RRD and the new RRD - 
fails with an error like ERROR: 'test.rrd' is too small (should be 5676 
bytes)
 * extract header information from the RRD - fails with an error like 
ERROR: 'test.rrd' is too small (should be 5676 bytes)

This is not a comprehensive test. It just tests the functions I use. I 
have seen these errors in the forums, but I haven't looked to deep as yet.

Next I'll try and get the ruby bindings to compile and document the 
win32 build steps.

Cheers, Barrie
