Re: MinGW versus GTK libintl.dll.a building GTK in Windows

[jun louis <louisliangjun gmail com>]

I just open libintl.h:433, remove this line(#define setlocale libintl_setlocale).

it's enought for test.

if I want to publish my app, will download gtk and other packages from opensuse mingw build

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/windows:/mingw:/win32/openSUSE_Factory/noarch/

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/windows:/mingw:/win64/openSUSE_Factory/noarch/

Just got bitten by this again on a new install (on a new machine) and
I think this might simply be the case of /mingw/share/aclocal/intl.m4
being picked up instead of /c/GTK/share/aclocal/intl.m4 (or where ever
the gettext-tools package lives on your machine) when running
./configure.

So it might be possible to fix this by exporting
ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I /c/GTK/share/aclocal" in addition to PATH and
PKG_CONFIG_PATH before executing ./configure to get around this.
Without moving around those .(l)a files as mentioned above.

Well, haven't yet tested this idea and probably wont have much time
to do so until week 49 :/

mvg,
Dieter
