How to build (X)MedCon/DLL on MS Windows using Gtk+2 ?
Currently, MSYS2 is definitely the way to go for POSIX ports on Windows. After you followed the mentioned installation steps, you open up msys2.exe
and add the following packages:
$ pacman -S make
For 64-bit development:
$ pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain
$ pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gtk2
For 32-bit development:
$ pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-toolchain
$ pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-gtk2
Afterwards you can download an (X)MedCon source package. Open up a targetted shell mingw64.exe
or mingw32.exe
. Unpack the source distribution and run the three familiar steps:
$ ./configure --prefix /usr/local/xmedcon
$ make
$ make install
The (X)MedCon binaries and associated dll should be found in /usr/local/xmedcon/bin
. All other gtk related dll dependencies are in /mingw64/bin or /mingw32/bin; depends which platform you targetted.
