Re: Errors in compiling GTK 2.14.4 with DirectFB target

["Harinandan S" <harinandans gmail com>]

Hi All,

 

I have installed Glib 2.18.2 and have set PKG_CONFIG_PATH to the place where .pc file of glib and other dependency are installed.

 

I listed glib-mkenums and it has ENUM_PREFIX defined. But I'm cross compiling and hence it cannot execute glib-mkenums present in $PREFIX/bin/glib-mkenums.  When I check for 'which glib-mkenums' the result is /bin/glib-mkenums which doesnt contain ENUMPREFIX defined.

 

What exactly should I do to overcome this problem?

 

Regards,
Harinandan S

Hi All,

 

When I try to compile GTK 2.14.4 with DirectFB target I get the following errors. I use DirectFB 1.1.1.

 

In file included from gdk-pixbuf.h:41,

Has anyone encountered this and solved this problem?

 

 The gdk-pixbuf-enum-types.h error is probably because you have an older version of GTK installed than the one you are building. It's the 2^nd time this week that same error has come up. To repeat what I said that time:

 

Find a file named glib-mkenums where you have GTK installed (usually C:/GTK/bin/glib-mkenums in Windows, /usr/bin/glib-mkenums in Linux) and list it (it's a text file - a perl script). Search for ENUMPREFIX, and if glib-mkenums does not have that then you need to install a newer gtk / gtk-dev.
