             Bug #: 46345
           Summary: tp-salut does not build on windows/mingw32
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: salut
        AssignedTo: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: siraj.razick at collabora.co.uk
         QAContact: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org


tp-salut doesn't compile on windows or mingw32 since it still uses unix sockets headers and functions unconditionally, and Avahi does not support windows.

so we have planed the following

1.) port tp-salut to windows using the dummy backend
   * this includes supporting a new switch --with-backend=salut/dummy/dns_sd
   * make sure tp-salut compiles on windows and mingw32 with the dummy backend
2.) add a new backend to support libdns_sd so we can use Apple's mdnsresponder 
    in windows.
