Re: atk 'missing symbols' problem since gnome-3-14

[John Emmas <johne53 tiscali co uk>]

Many thanks for those suggestions guys.  It didn't quite fix the problem 
but it did point me in the right direction.  Here's what I've found so 
far....

The top of the (auto-generated) file 'atk-enum-types.c' currently looks 
like this:-

        /* Generated data (by glib-mkenums) */

        #include "atk.h"

I needed to change it to this for atk-2.14 to build correctly:-

        /* Generated data (by glib-mkenums) */

        #include "config.h"  // <--- I needed to add this line !!

        #include "atk.h"

Without that extra line, _ATK_EXTERN is simply defined as 'extern' when 
it needs to be '__declspec (dllexport) extern'.  Adding that extra line 
fixes the problem whereby the built DLL wasn't exporting those 
particular symbols  -  BUT...

Unfortunately, quite a few of the source files in atkmm seem to #include 
<atk/atk-enum-types.h> directly.  In most cases it doesn't cause any 
problems - but there are 3 or 4 source files from atkmm which refuse to 
compile now with that extra line added.  I'll keep plugging away and see 
if I can find out why.
