Armin (currently fixing win32 build stuff), please make this change if it's
appropriate. I've seen this pattern before so it probably is. Thanks, Philip.

------- Comment #2 from Armin Burgmeier  2008-08-26 14:26 UTC -------
I did not run accross this problem because I both did a mingw and msvc built,
with the mingw one having generated config.h. However, if you did not run the
configure script, how did you generate the glibmm.rc then (or, why didn't
Visual Studio complain about it being missing)? I think this is normally
generated from glibmm.rc.in, so you would need to run the configure script
anyway.

Since SIZEOF_WCHAR_T is only used when GLIBMM_HAVE_WIDE_STREAM is defined, and
the latter is not defined for MSVC, it is probably safe to simply not include
config.h for MSVC. If we need it some day, then we could perhaps put it into
glibmmconfig.h as GLIBMM_SIZEOF_WCHAR_T or something.

------- Comment #3 from Philip Kovacs  2008-08-26 21:41 UTC -------
The package comes with the .rc files in the distribution.  Look at the
AC_CONFIG_FILES section of the configure.in.  You see the entry:

MSVC_Net2003/glibmm/glibmm.rc

That causes glibmm.rc to be built from .rc.in and causes glibmm.rc to be
included in the distribution via make dist/distcheck.  There is also an
(unneeded) entry
in the above directory's Makefile.am:

EXTRA_DIST = glibmmconfig.h glibmm.vcproj glibmm.rc


However, the glibmm.rc includes both resource.h and afxres.h, neither of which
are in the distribution, so my workaround was simply to exclude glibmm.rc from
the project and built without it.  The only consequence is the .dll is created
without the:

VALUE "CompanyName", "The glibmm development team (see AUTHORS)"
VALUE "FileDescription", "The official C++ wrapper for glib"
VALUE "FileVersion", "2.17.2"
VALUE "LegalCopyright", "Distribution is under the LGPL (see COPYING)"
VALUE "OriginalFilename", "glibmm-2.4"
VALUE "ProductName", "glibmm"
VALUE "ProductVersion", "2.17.2"

information (no "Version" tab when you right-click on the dll).  That alone is
may be regarded as a significant problem and I recommend fixing it.

Back to the original subject -- I simply wrapped the #include config.h with the
HAVE_CONFIG_H guard to allow the compile to continue.

You mentioned that you used mingw to generate a configure for MSVC.  Each
platform build mechanism should be complete and functionally independent, so
you must test each one alone.

BTW, gtkmm and its subprojects all suffer from the .rc problem I describe in
this comment.  They include the same non-existent files.  Deleting the
resources is the workaround, but, again, the resulting .dll's contain no
license/version/author info.

------- Comment #4 from Philip Kovacs  2008-08-26 21:54 UTC -------
I wanted to add that I was implicitly distinguishing the between the upstream
maintainer who uses the gnu build system and 'make dist' to create a
distribution tarball, from the end-user who wants to compile but may not have
the gnu build system (e.g. an msvc user).

It's fine to use gnu for creating distributions (i do it all the time), but, if
you support msvc, all the needed files for that build system must be packaged
explicitly as well.

Cheers,

Phil

I see. I built most stuff from SVN to be able to check in the changed project
files, so I didn't notice the resource files are in the tarball (although I
should, because it is in EXTRA_DIST). Thanks.

I already removed the "include resource.h" from all the resources (in SVN)
because I had the same problem, and the resources build fine without. I didn't
have a problem with the "afxres.h", though. Does it work for you if you remove
both includes?

I think I'll do the same for glibmm.

Armin,

I imported a fresh tarball of 2.17.2 into Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express SP1
and tried to rebuild.  After removing the include resource.h, it failed on
include afxres.h.  After removing that include, I get many additional errors:

1>Compiling resources...
1>Microsoft (R) Windows (R) Resource Compiler Version 6.1.6723.1
1>Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.

Not sure what is going on there.  I had to exclude the .rc from the project
entirely.   

BTW this is the free version of MSVC.  Just download it from
http://www.microsoft.com/express/download/ and you should be able to reproduce
these issues.

Regards,

Phil

------- Comment #7 from Philip Kovacs  2008-08-26 23:35 UTC -------
Ok, I found and fixed the issue.  The underlying problem is that these MSVC
2008 Express editions do not ship with MFC and afxres.h is an MFC header.

If you remove the #include resource.h file (as you did) and replace 

#include <afxres.h>

with 

#include <windows.h>

then the resource compiler can compile the .rc file with no problems.

I hope this helps.

Phil
