Re: Tutorial perl-Gtk3 and Windows/MSys



Thanks for this.
I am sill getting an issue, it seems to be an oddity with paths

from cpanm build.log

[ CC Glib.c ]

Hi,

I've been working on a repository that takes all the work needed to
install Gtk3 on different platforms and put it into one repository (I'm
also working on making .dmg and .msi installers --- these work but have
a couple cases I need to address):

<https://github.com/orbital-transfer-example/perl-gtk3-starter-basic>

The file you'll want to use for MSYS2/MINGW is
<https://github.com/orbital-transfer-example/perl-gtk3-starter-basic/blob/0.002/maint/EUMMnosearch.pm>.

and what you want to do is add it to be loaded automatically via the
PERL5OPT environment variable

    export PERL5OPT="-Ipath/to/perl-gtk3-starter-basic/maint -MEUMMnosearch"
    cpanm Gtk3

What this module file does is detect when it being run under an
ExtUtils::MakeMaker installation and then run some hacks around the
arguments and build so that EU::MM knows where to find libraries and
generates a file that allows one XS module to link with another (the
comments in EUMMnosearch.pm explain what I'm doing).

Ideally this would be fixed upstream in ExtUtils::MakeMaker, but I have
not had time to see what I can do.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,

P.S. The helper.pl script in there also handles the same thing in a
self-contained way. See the commands listed under the "run:" keys in
<https://github.com/orbital-transfer-example/perl-gtk3-starter-basic/blob/0.002/.github/workflows/msys2-mingw.yml>
for how to use that.
