Building wxGTK port with Win32 GDK backend
------------------------------------------
GTK+ widget toolkit has multiple GDK backends and one of them is Win32.
It is a wrapper around Windows API.
See http://www.gtk.org/download/win32.php
These notes don't consider building wxGTK with X11 backend under Windows.
Building steps:
1. wxGTK/Win32 build is similar to wxMSW one and you should have configured
and be able to build wxWidgets as described in docs/msw/install.txt
2. wxGTK/Win32 is disabled by default in wxWidgets, you need to enable it
in bakefiles manually. Apply following patch manually or using Cygwin:
patch -p0 < docs/msw/gtkfix.patch
Regenerate required make/project files:
cd build\bakefiles
bakefile_gen
3. Download GTK+ for Windows and uncompress files in the directory
without spaces in the name. We suppose later that GTK+/Win32 is
in the C:\gtk directory.

4. Building
4.1 If you are using Visual C++ project files you need to setup GTK+ 2 include directories
C:\gtk\lib\include\gtk-2.0
C:\gtk\lib\include\glib-2.0
C:\gtk\lib\include\cairo
C:\gtk\lib\include\pango-1.0
C:\gtk\lib\include\gdk-pixbuf-2.0
C:\gtk\lib\include\atk-1.0
C:\gtk\lib\glib-2.0\include
C:\gtk\lib\gtk-2.0\include
and library directory
C:\gtk\lib\
See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/t9az1d21(v=vs.90).aspx
Open solution file in build\msw directory, select "GTK+ Debug" solution
configuration and build the solution. To be sure that everything is as expected
you can build minimal sample.
GTK+ is linked to wxWidgets always as DLL, so C:\gtk\bin directory should be
in %PATH% environment variable before application run.
4.2 You can also build using nmake:
set INCLUDE=C:\gtk\lib\glib-2.0\include\;C:\gtk\lib\gtk-2.0\include\;C:\gtk\include\cairo\;C:\gtk\include\pango-1.0\;C:\gtk\include\gtk-2.0\;C:\gtk\include\glib-2.0\;C:\gtk\include\gdk-pixbuf-2.0\;C:\gtk\include\atk-1.0\;
set LIB=C:\gtk\lib\;
set PATH=C:\gtk\bin\;%PATH%;
nmake -f makefile.vc "TOOLKIT=GTK" "TOOLKIT_VERSION=2"
or with MinGW:
set CXXFLAGS=%CXXFLAGS% -IC:\gtk\include\gtk-2.0
set CXXFLAGS=%CXXFLAGS% -IC:\gtk\include\glib-2.0
set CXXFLAGS=%CXXFLAGS% -IC:\gtk\include\cairo
set CXXFLAGS=%CXXFLAGS% -IC:\gtk\include\pango-1.0
set CXXFLAGS=%CXXFLAGS% -IC:\gtk\include\gdk-pixbuf-2.0
set CXXFLAGS=%CXXFLAGS% -IC:\gtk\include\atk-1.0
set CXXFLAGS=%CXXFLAGS% -IC:\gtk\lib\glib-2.0\include
set CXXFLAGS=%CXXFLAGS% -IC:\gtk\lib\gtk-2.0\include
set CFLAGS=%CXXFLAGS%
set LDFLAGS=%LDFLAGS% -LC:\gtk\lib
set PATH=C:\gtk\bin\;%PATH%;
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc "TOOLKIT=GTK" "TOOLKIT_VERSION=2"
5. Now you can use wxGTK/Win32 as wxMSW in your applications.
