Hi Bill,

Wow, that's very useful, I'll keep that in mind next time I decide to rebuild my libs! (Might even put it on my build server!)

Thanks,

Guy.

An alternative is here: https://github.com/wingtk/gtk-win32

Their Python script automates building the whole dependency tree.


By default their script expects various dependencies on the root of C: drive.
However, it accepts overrides.  Here's an example invocation for building
GTK3 with VS2015 on Win64, with dependencies in non-default locations:

python ./build.py build -p x64 -c release --clean --build-dir P:/code/gtk-build --msys-dir C:/dev/msys64 --perl-dir C:/dev/perl520/x64 --python-dir C:/dev/python27 --vs-ver 14 --vs-install-path C:/dev/vs-2015 --cmake-path M:/dev/cmake-3.6.2-win64-x64/bin gtk3


Regards,

Bill
