Re: gtkmm 3 win32?

[Jonas Platte <jonasplatte myopera com>]

I managed to cross-compile my gtkmm 3 app using a tutorial to compile 
glade for windows 
(http://blogs.gnome.org/xjuan/2012/05/29/cross-compiling-glade-for-win32/). 
The windows libraries that are used there are from the OpenSUSE 
repositories, which seem to have mingw32-builds of some otherwise 
linux-only libraries.
If you want to try doing that too, and have problems, feel free to 
contact me about it. There are some things you need to do additionally 
to those in the tutorial to get things running.

However, my program doesn't work and I found out the problem is in 
gtk_builder_add_from_file. So if you use Gtk::Builder, and have your ui 
files loaded during runtime, you will probably have the program crash on 
startup too.
There is the alternative way of bundling your ui files into binary 
bundles with the GResource API and linking them into the executable 
which seems to be what Glade does. Unfortunately, GResource isn't 
wrapped in gtkmm. I didn't file a bug because I was busy, but eventually 
we could discuss the whole win32 problem again the mailing list now.

I would really appreciate a solution too.
