Re: MSVC compilation of the *mm core stack from master



I know this does not answer your question, but I found that the 
gtkmm and related packages in Microsoft's VCPKG at
https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg work very well, and save you the
hassle of setting up this build process yourself.

To anyone trying to setup gtkmm on Windows, feel free to email me for
details.

Cheers,
Kasper

Since recently the MSVC projects seem to have been dropped and
switched over to nmake for MSVC, I've gotten stuck on compiling the
stack at glibmm:

NMAKE : fatal error U1073: don't know how to make
'release\x64\glibmm\glibmm.res'

 

Given that I have been unable to find any documentation or
instructions on compiling on msvc from master, the only way I've
managed to figure out or find for even compiling from master on msvc
native (without using mingw or cygwin, so-as to avoid linking to any
mingw or cygwin dlls) is using jhbuild on linux and then copy the
generated .cc and .h files over to windows, and then build using
those (and usually taking the *config.h files from a build of
whichever library it is from ftp.gnome.org <ftp://ftp.gnome.org> ,
comparing to the new one, and making changes). Is there a better way
to do this? It wasn't able to find glibmm.res for the nmake build
from jhbuild.

 

Thanks!
