Hello Kaz,

I had put some effort into making StreamDevice 2.8 compatible with

Windows dynamic linking, which was a pain in the ass. I had tested

everything with 3.16.1 and got no errors, only some strange warnings.

I have now again tested StreamDevice 2.8.8 with several versions of

EPICS base. Here are my results:

R3.14.12.7: Success
R3.15.5: Success
R3.15.6: Success
R3.16.1: Success
R3.16.2: Success
R7.0.1.1: cannot build base
R7.0.2: cannot build base

Trying to build EPICS 7 in windows-x64 fails with:

D:\user\zimoch\base-7.0.2\bin\windows-x64\e_flex.exe: can't open

The same with 7.0.1.1. No idea what's wrong now. Building EPICS 3.16 was

no problem at all.

I am using Windows 10 cmd.exe, Visual Studio 2017 cl, cygwin make and

cygwin perl.
