Windows port
Brought to you by:

I do not know whether it is possible, but I am really
looking for exactly something like this - voice
communication over TCP (yes, has to be TCP) without
servers in between (like Skype). But I need it for
Windows (no, can't change that) and I do not have a
clue what is needed to port a linux tool. One of the
two PCs that will communicate doesn't even have Cygwin
and is very old (Win98). Would it be possible to port
this to Windows? Of course, if you know about any
exsting app that has the features I need, I would be
very glad if you could suggest anything.

I believe that a port to Windows is possible. All libraries
used by IHU are available also on Windows, except for ALSA.
But I think that it is possible to adapt the routines that
use the ALSA library(in Player.cpp and Recorder.cpp) to
routines that use the sound library available on Windows.
Then the other part of the work (but not so hard) should be
to adapt the functions concerning the communication on the
network, because on Windows usually are a bit different.
As I already said in other posts, unfortunately at the
moment I don't have time to work on this.
HELP WANTED - Anybody who wants to help me to port IHU to
other platforms, is WELCOME!
Thank you

OK, thanks for the info. As I already mentioned, I am unable
to port it, but I found something else and thought I say it
here if somehone needs something similar: Now I use Ventrilo
(not open source, but freeware) I have to start a (very
small) server and a client on one of the PCs, but it does
not need internet servers and it allows me to communicate
trough a single TCP connection.

P2P VoIp Beta 1.1 can do that, and have a source code for
win http://phonesnd.com/p2pv11.zip.
It would be nice that both programs can comunicate between
them

It will be very great to have windows port. This application is one of very rare soft - voip application with no intermediate server and that use speex. I think that win16 port (for windows 95, 98) is more difficult that win32 (windows 200 and xp) port. Is it possible to get win32 port of this application?

I have good news for people trying to run IHU on Windows!
It's possible to run IHU using VMWare Player. Gunnar Widell
just wrote a little howto with the instructions here:
