Cedric Gustin gtkmm-win32

[Damon Register-3]

Has anyone downloaded and used the subject package?  I have tried it
with success so far.  In the message from this list
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtkmm-list/2008-April/msg00020.html

I would like to ask some questions about this.  Cedric stated in his
post
"1. for the mingw32 target, everything (latest libsigc++, libxml++,
glibmm, gtkmm, libglademm) builds fine
with the exception of libglademm : some missing symbols in the libglade
DLL. I will submit a patch on bugzilla in the next few days."
libglademm seems to be in the package that I downloaded.  Does that
mean that this problem has been fixed in the package at
http://www.gustin.be/win32/gtkmm-win32-2.12.7.zip ?

You mentioned using cygwin to build for the mingw32 target.  Is this the
preferred method instead of using MinGW/msys?

You were planning to document your build procedure.  At the beginning of
your post in April, you said that you were extremely busy.  Since I
haven't heard any more on this, am I correct in concluding that you have
not been able to do the documenting yet?

I don't know how far I will get but I am tempted to tackle this myself.
I have been fighting a problem with Glibmm KeyFile that works correctly
on only one PC at work that seems to have an older g++.  I posted to the
mingw-users list and got an answer that suggests the problem might be
with the mixing of compilers.  Thinking back on other problems, I am
inclined to believe that is the cause of the current problem.  This
gives me more reason that ever to want to find how to build the gtkmm
libraries so that I can be sure it was done with the same compiler.

Do you think this would be very difficult to figure out?

I believe I have answered my own question.  Since I had some luck with
building other gtk related components, I decided to give it a try.
I downloaded each of the items that were contained in the Cedric build
and was able to build each one with almost no trouble.  The only one that
gave me any trouble was glibmm.  Since it was only one of the examples
that failed, I just edited the makefile to remove the examples.

After building and installing them all, I was able to run that demo app
that was giving me trouble.  Here are the steps I took to build

1.  http://cairographics.org/releases/
      cairomm-1.6.0.tar.gz
      ./configure --prefix=/c/GTK
      make
      make install

2.  http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/libsigc++/2.0/
      libsigc++-2.0.18.tar.gz
      ./configure --prefix=/c/GTK
      make
      make install

3.  http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/glibmm/2.16/
      glibmm-2.16.3.tar.gz
      ./configure --prefix=/c/GTK
      edit Makefile to remove examples.  One of the examples does not compile
      make
      make install

4.  http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gtkmm/2.12/
      gtkmm-2.12.7.tar.gz
      ./configure --prefix=/c/GTK
      make
      make install

5.  http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/libglademm/2.6/
      libglademm-2.6.6.tar.gz
      ./configure --prefix=/c/GTK
      make
      make install

6.  http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/libxml++/2.23/
      libxml++-2.23.2.tar.gz
      ./configure --prefix=/c/GTK
      make
      make install

Did you noticed that it fails during the untar-ing? At least for me it
gave me this error:
tar: Child died with signal 13
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
I tried to untar the same file under linux, and in untar-ed fine. Maybe
there is a problem with tar under MSys/MinGW?
As in your case, glibmm seemed to build just fine otherwise ...

I didn't have any trouble there.  The only tar I have ever had trouble
with was the Solaris one.  I just did a quick check to see which version
I have.

$ uname -a
MINGW32_NT-5.1 AMD64 1.0.10(0.46/3/2) 2004-03-15 07:17 i686 unknown

$ tar --version
tar (GNU tar) 1.13.19

Did you build with my steps or your own method?  I don't claim to be an
expert.  I just posted what worked for me.
