Building latest Redis to use in Cygwin
on Tuesday, August 28, 2012
Today I had to use Redis for the first time which doesn’t seem very well supported under Windows at this point. Coming from Linux I try to use Cygwin under Windows as often as I can. So here is what I did to build the latest Redis version (there were some old binaries for download but I wanted to use a newer version). First make sure you have the Cygwin packages “make” and “gcc” installed. Then open a Cygwin terminal and follow the steps under “Installation” but do not run “make” yet. Before you run “make” open the file src/redis.c and add the following block somewhere on top of the file (I have copied it just one line before the #include statement):

Thanks for this post.
I didn't manage to build redis for cygwin thought...
I had to add the snippet to debug.c too, and then got :
