Re: building GTK2 from src on win32

That should be possible. I was thinking the same, but did'nt have time to try it yet. > So I'm fiddling away trying to build the latest GTK+ from src, and as ever > have fallen at the first hurdle because I can't stop glib wanting to use > libc.lib alongside msvcrt.lib, regardless of the flags I add to the nmake > commandline.

I thiunk we need to rebuild all the GTK binaries from scratch. PHP5 now comes with libxml2 and iconv bundled and with all the symbols exported. There is no need to link with these any more. This will also allow us to build everything with the /MD options so we avoid the LIBC linking problems. I have two important projects on my plate right now; a new product that we release at the end of January and my talk for the Vancouver conference. As soon as I get the time I'll start working on this. - Frank
