[code]This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

It was created by Extended Template Library configure 0.04.13, which was

I would love to see cmake supported, as that would make it possible to use MS VCC as an IDE.

I’m not very good with compilers (I only follow the Windows build recipe), but it looks like the configure script is unable to figure out your C++ preprocessor. It’s returning " " instead of “yes” or “no” to the script, which causes it to fail. More than that, I can’t tell you why it’s going wrong.

super animator, what is the status of your Code::Blocks project? Specifically, the Windows version?
