RE: building GTK2 from src on win32

Good thinking. .oO('how do we build glib at that level?') OK, I did this with glib-2.3.1: glib\build\win32\make.msc # INTL_CFLAGS = -I $(INTL) # INTL_LIBS = $(INTL)\intl.lib # LIBICONV_CFLAGS = -I $(LIBICONV)\include # LIBICONV_LIBS = $(LIBICONV)\lib\iconv.lib PHP_CFLAGS = -I $(PHP) # this is most likely wrong? PHP_LIBS = $(PHP)\Release_TS\php5ts.lib and replaced those macros where appropriate throughout the glib makefiles. I also had to replace gmacros.h, gconvert.h and gconvert.c in glib\glib dir with the latest CVS versions.

It looks fairly hopeful apart from that! The only problems I'm having is with building the tests. type-test.c(129) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ')' before identifier 'G_GSSIZE_FORMAT' and (following commenting-out type-test.exe build in glib tests makefile & adding some commas to g_print()s in testglib.c to kill a similar message) testglib.c(428) : error C2065: 'G_GSIZE_FORMAT' : undeclared identifier
