Hi,
I've just pushed a commit to the cairo-alpha branch on sourceforge
that enables generation of DLL's... should solve this problem. At
least, it works for me using mingw64 and mingw32 on fedora (cross
compiling for windows on a linux box).
There were a few fixes needed:
1. stop calling pkg-config in Makefile.am since it used the native
pkg-config instead of the cross-compiler's pkg-config. Instead,
use @GTK_CFLAGS@, since autoconf had already gone to the trouble
of calling the right pkg-config.
2. add AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL before AM_PROG_LIBTOOL in configure.ac
3. add a -no-undefined flag to libgtkdatabox_la_LDFLAGS in
gtk/Makefile.am
With only these changes, for me, after installing on fedora a
number of packages for mingw32 and/or mingw64 (choose) (such as
mingw32-gtk3, mingw32-glib2, mingw32-cairo, etc.), all I have to
do is type
scripts/myAutoreconf.sh
mingw32_configure
make
and it generates everything.
There is a NSIS installer generator feature that I need to look
into...
Sincerely,

I think there is a way to convert a *.a library to a

DLL's. You may wanna try the Mingw list. I wish I had more ways
I could help here but I just don't have much experience with
DLL's.
I believe this library will require you to have the exact
version of GTK that the gtkdatabox was compiled under installed
on the machine also. I tried a static GTK databox build once on
both Linux and windows and I got no where with it.
Good luck and if you have success then send us your patch we
will try to include it in the future releases.

I was able to build gtkdatabox with ./configure, make, etc.,
using mingw, but the output consists of only an include and
lib directory.
This is what I get after "make install":
include/...
lib/
pkgconfig/
gtkdatabox.pc
gtkdatabox.la
gtkdatabox.a
I would like to create a windows dll and I was expecting
that
"make install" would create something like this:
bin/
gtkdatabox.dll
include/...
lib/
pkgconfig/
gtkdatabox.pc
gtkdatabox.dll.a
Is there an option to ./configure that would have make
produce the dll?
I tried --enable-shared without success. I want to produce a
gtkdatabox.zip archive that will unpack like the pre-built
binary versions of gtkdatabox. I though perhaps there was
some way ./configure could do that... If not, how should the
dll be produced?
Thanks,
