Glib-Object-Introspection on Windows

[Daniel Kasak <d j kasak dk gmail com>]

Hi all.

I'm trying to build GIO-0.029 on Windows. I've previously been able to
build version 0.025 like this from a cmd.exe shell:

set CC=gcc
set GI_TYPELIB_PATH=c:\jewelkit\c\lib\girepository-1.0
Makefile.PL
dmake
dmake test
dmake install

With version 0.029, I get:

C:\gtk3_build\source\Glib-Object-Introspection-0.029>dmake
cp lib/Glib/Object/Introspection.pm blib\lib\Glib\Object/Introspection.pm
cp build/IFiles.pm blib\arch/Glib\Object\Introspection/Install/Files.pm

Does anyone know what the problem is?

It's taken over a day to get to this point ... and there's a new
Windows release coming very soon after this is fixed ... :)
