The Win32 port of GTk+ is a work in progress, and not as stable or
|
|
correct as the Unix/X11 version. For more information about the Win32
|
|
port, see http://www.gimp.org/tml/gimp/win32/ or
|
|
http://www.iki.fi/tml/gimp/win32/ .
|
|
|
|
To build GTk+ on Win32, you need either the Microsoft compiler and
|
|
tools, or gcc-2.95 or later running under cygwin-b20.1 or
|
|
later. Compile in gdk\win32 and gtk with `nmake -f makefile.msc` or
|
|
`make -f makefile.cygwin`. Before doing a install, check the BIN
|
|
definition in gdk\win32\makefile.msc (or makefile.cygwin) and
|
|
gtk\makefile.msc (or makefile.cygwin).
|
|
|
|
See the README.win32 file in the GLib distribution for instructions
|
|
how to build with gcc.
|
|
|
|
The same instructions are also useful if you want to build
|
|
applications that use GTk+ on Win32.
|
|
|
|
The tablet support uses the Wintab API. The Wintab development kit can
|
|
be downloaded from http://www.pointing.com. If you don't care for
|
|
that, undefine HAVE_WINTAB in config.h.win32 and remove references to
|
|
the wntab32x library from the makefile before building.
|
|
|
|
GTk+ wants to be built with the GNU "intl" library for
|
|
internationalisation (i18n). Get the version ported to Win32 (not a
|
|
very big deal) from tml's web site mentioned above. We build the
|
|
"intl" library as a DLL called gnu-intl.dll (the "gnu" prefix is used
|
|
to reduce name clash risks). If you don't want any i18n stuff,
|
|
undefine ENABLE_NLS, HAVE_GETTEXT and HAVE_LIBINTL in the
|
|
config.h.win32 file, and remove references to the gnu-intl library
|
|
from the makefiles.
|
|
|
|
Note that while the GNU gettext package is under the GPL, the "intl"
|
|
part of it as distributed with GNU libc is under the LGPL (like GTk+
|
|
or GLib). We want the LGPL one, even if they are the same, more or
|
|
less.
