Summary

0000097: gcc toolchain should #define _WIN32 when on Windows, like mingw-gcc does

Description

Currently the gcc toolchain does not define _WIN32 like mingw-gcc does, so parsing goes on the wrong #ifdef branches.

On windows, the gcc toolchain should define all these symbols:
_WIN32, WIN32, and __WIN32__

This only affects C++ editing features: Syntax Highlighting, Content Assist, etc, and may cause false "cannot find include file" warnings to be displayed in the editor. It does NOT affect the build process.

Steps To Reproduce

1. create a new OMNeT++ C++ project on Windows, using the gcc toolchain (MinGW)
2. in any .cc or .h file, enter the following:
    #ifdef _WIN32
    some-win32-stuff
    #endif
3. the line "some-win32-stuff" will appear as grayed out (inactive)

(0000349) rhornig (administrator) 2010-12-10 16:14	This issue affects only the files that are not in a C++ project. I.e. header files from omnetpp do not see the defines correctly as the presence of macros depend on where these files are included from.
