Re: GTK+2 & Windows

[Clive Levinson <clivel bundu com>]

Hi Alf,
I have had no trouble building GTK+ apps using cygwin under Windows.
A partial extract from my make file may help you solve your problem.

GTK_CFLAGS=-c -Wall -mno-cygwin -mms-bitfields -O2 `pkg-config --cflags 
gtk+-2.0`
GTK_LIBS=`pkg-config --libs gtk+-2.0`
GTK_LFLAGS=-Wall -mno-cygwin -mms-bitfields -s -mwindows

gcc $(GTK_CFLAGS)  app.cpp -o app.o
windres -i resource.rc -o resource.o
g++   $(GTK_LFLAGS) -o app.exe app.o resource.o  $(GTK_LIBS)

Note that I am using the -mno-cygwin which instructs gcc not to link with 
the cygwin
libraries (effectively makes cygwin gcc act like MinGW). This flag is only 
probably
required for linking, not for compiling, but it doesn't seem to do any harm.
Totsiens,
Clive
