 |
|
Hi--
Minwin doesn't have a Linux makefile. With some modification, I got the makefile to work, mainly by copying from other makefiles.
After that, it took some modification to make the rest of it compile. The only real issue was casting arrays to pointers.
Here's the difference in the source:

The Linux makefile is here.
Now. This allows you to compile the library. Linking against it, not so much. When trying to compile the samples, the linker complains about just about every line in the file. These are enumerated here.
Any ideas what's wrong? |

Hi and thanx for testing 
I just got home from two weeks vacation in Brazil, so nothing has happened in that time.
I'm currently using Windows and I must admit I hate Cygwin, which so is the only way I have been able to test the GTK backend.
I'm trying to come up with a way to make it work with MinGW and GDC but I'm not quite there yet.
The patch will definitely be applied, but I have been considering dropping the makefiles from the repository as 1) I hate makefiles, and 2) bud exists!
Currently MinWin has some pretty serious problems. Some things are pretty inconsistant across backends, some things simply dont work at all, either being broken or just not implemented.
So far I have been fixing things if I could find the time and knew how to, otherwise I have filed tickets in the Trac environment.
I don't want to discourage you from trying MinWin but it's not ready for real world use yet. If you're still not scared away I would love some help in identifying issues/inconsistencies and also patches or tickets will be VERY MUCH appreciated.
But first... Give me a few days to catch up on D and get back into the game  |

| I tried I think MinWin rev32 on Kubuntu 6.10 PPC with gdc 0.21, and the samples worked fine. |

If this is the case, which file are we supposed to build to compile the library? Or are the source files simply meant to be linked in individually? A build.cfg file would be nice too.
I did just successfully compile all.d (I am guessing this is the file that includes all of the other files) using Build (CMDLINE=-I./docs/ in a build.cfg file was necessary to link in the minwin.apt.ect files in docs/) on OS X using GDC based on dmd 1.00. |

this works fine for me:
| Code: |
bud -lib -Tlibminwin_gtk.a all.d -I.. -version=GTK -full -clean
cd samples
make -f linux.mak
