gtk+ 3.1.2/git & MSVC++: GDK_IS_WIN32_WINDOW @ gtkclipboard.c causes troubles

["Mikhail Titov" <mlt gmx us>]

Hello!

I noticed recently, when I was building either git version or 3.1.2 using MS VC++, that I’m getting hard times with GDK_IS_WIN32_WINDOW. It is only mentioned in "C:\obs\gtk+-3.1.2\gdk\win32\gdkwin32window.h" and recently was introduced in gtkclipboard.c . I just can’t build with it, however once I get rid of it, everything builds just fine both git version of gtk+ and 3.1.2 . 

The problem arises when I build gtk-win32-vc90-d-3.1.dll :
gtkclipboard.c.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _gdk_win32_window_get_type referenced in function _clipboard_get_timestamp
gtk-win32-vc90-d-3.1.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

I can’t find where `gdk_win32_window_get_type` is defined. I see only ` gdk_win32_window_get_type_hint` in gdkwindow_win32.c and ` GType    gdk_win32_window_get_type          (void);` in gdkwin32window.h . Is it supposed to be generated somewhere?

Am I doing something wrong? I’m not sure if it is because I’m using mingw binary dependencies from OBS for gtk+ or something else. The simple change to pre 3.1.2 version like the following fixes everything

$ diff -urN gtk/gtkclipboard.c.orig gtk/gtkclipboard.c

+      if (1)
        {
          timestamp = GetMessageTime ();
        }

P.S. I’ll update git-friendly CMakeLists.txt for native Win32 build using MSVC++ in Wiki in a while if someone is interested.
