nullclient problems with MSVC

[Philip Kucheev]

i ,I have some problems with nullclient on  MSVC .
I built pidgin with CygWin like instructions on http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/BuildingWinPidgin
When I created  a MSVC app and  included nullclient.c and defines.h
After that I built libpurple.lib  by lib.exe and files libpurple.dll and libpurple.def
And included to linker .
There are some errors after compilation .
 1) signal(SIGCHLD, SIG_IGN)   error C2065: 'SIGCHLD' : undeclared identifier
    I replaced for signal(SIGINT,SIG_IGN),but i dont know is it right
        How to solve this?SIGCHLD is not defined for Win
 2) I replaced function getpass() by it is not critical

Then app was run but some protocols was not available like xmpp and icq. After debuging i found xmpp.dll
and icq .dll unloading immediately after loading. Why??
After signing nullclient app stop and do nothing
What do you think  about this ??

nullclient is known not to work out of the box on Windows - it is just
an example, not something that you'd really use.

What does the debug output say?

I think that you haven't overridden the giochannel implementation -
the same as this thread:

But how I can run nullclient?
I need use MinGW to build it,right? Oherwise i can use MSVC?

About jabber debug output say:
'nclient.exe': Loaded 'C:\lib\pidgin-2.5.6\libpurple\example\nclient\nclient\plugin\libjabber.dll', Binary was not built with debug information.
'nclient.exe': Unloaded 'C:\lib\pidgin-2.5.6\libpurple\example\nclient\nclient\plugin\libjabber.dll'
Same about libicq.dll and others...
Complite output info is in attach ,if you interesting.
