MINGW build problem

[marlowa]

I tried to build POCO with minGW but got a load of compilation errors to do with DLL export. For example, CppUnit wont build because the macro CppUnit_EXPORTS does not get passed to the compiler, even though it is in the Makefile. Any ideas why?

2.1.13 Regular Expressions
Perl-compatible regular expressions, based on the popular open source
PCRE library and wrapped in an intuitive to use class.

That should get you going.

Also forget to mention to modify $(POCO_ROOT)/build/config/MinGW
