Have you done any kind of development on Windows before? Have you done
that in Visual Studio only, or have you done it "Unix-like" with
Makefiles etc? Have you used the Microsoft compiler and other tools on
Windows, or gcc? Which of these approaches do you want to use to build
your application on Windows?

Would cross-compiling from Linux be an option?'

Do you in general prefer to do things in small steps so that you
understand the details of what is going on, or to use all-in-one
approaches that hide the boring details?

Without knowing more about what exactly you want to do it's hard to help you.

But in general, if you have never done any kind of programming on
Windows before, thinking that you will be able to jump straight in and
build your GTK+ application for Windows quickly just like that (and
then even be able to package it sensibly for distribution to
customers, perhaps) is a fallacy. If you haven't considered any kind
of portability concerns, even building your application on another
POSIX platform might not be straightforward...

> Did you concider the documentation?!  The API?

If I read his mail correctly he already has written, or is writing,
the application, so presumably knowing the GTK+ API is not the
problem.
