Re: Pango GTK+ on Windows

[Pete Nagy <Peter Nagy vexcel com>]

This looks like a problem I fixed by editing the pango.modules file.  For
me, this file was in ../pango-1.4.1/etc/pango and looked like:

# Pango Modules file
# Automatically generated file, do not edit
#
/target/lib/pango/1.4.0/modules/pango-arabic-fc.dll ArabicScriptEngineFc
PangoEngineShape PangoRenderFc arabic:*
/target/lib/pango/1.4.0/modules/pango-basic-fc.dll BasicScriptEngineFc
PangoEngineShape PangoRenderFc armenian:* bopomofo:* cherokee:* coptic:*
cyrillic:* deseret:* ethiopic:* georgian:* gothic:* greek:* han:*
hiragana:* katakana:* latin:* ogham:* old-italic:* runic:*
canadian-aboriginal:* yi:* braille:* cypriot:* limbu:* osmanya:* shavian:*
linear-b:* ugaritic:* common:
/target/lib/pango/1.4.0/modules/pango-basic-win32.dll
BasicScriptEngineWin32 PangoEngineShape PangoRenderWin32 common:
/target/lib/pango/1.4.0/modules/pango-hangul-fc.dll HangulScriptEngineFc
PangoEngineShape PangoRenderFc hangul:*
...

The /target/ stuff is garbage which I suppose should have been replaced by
some automatic configure tool, which never seems to work with cygwin/mingw
due to problems like path conventions.  Anyway, when I put an edited
etc/pango/pango.modules into the path where I run my application, and make
sure that '/target/' points to my pango installation, it works:

# Pango Modules file
# Automatically generated file, do not edit (hah!)
#
c:\proj\gtk\pango-1.4.1\lib\pango\1.4.0\modules\pango-arabic-fc.dll
