Description

I am trying to install GDML add-on to Geant4, but I get an error when Xerces_autoconf_config.hpp calls for 'inttypes.hh.' Here is an excerpt of the compilation process:

Compiling G4GDMLParser.cc ...
G4GDMLParser.cc
c:/xerces/include\xercesc/util/Xerces_autoconf_config.hpp(88) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'inttypes.h': No such file or directory
make[2]" *** [c:/Geant4/geant4_9_3/tmp/WIN32-VC/G4gdml/G4GDMLParser.o] Error 2
make[1]: *** [objs] Error 2

I know that Visual Studio is set up to communicate with cygwin properly because I have built many other cpp toolkits in this environment. What may be the problem?

Thanks
