[Bug-gnubg] Building GnuBG on Windows

[David Montgomery]

Hi all,

I am trying to build gnubg on Windows following Nardy's
most excellent instructions.  My guess is that Jaro will
be able to get things working a lot more easily if we
can actually step through some of the gnubg code, or at
least do fprintf debugging.

Anyway, I haven't been able to follow all the instructions.

The instructions refer to

glib-2.0.7-20021201.zip
glib-dev-2.0.7-20021201.zip
gtk+-1.3.0-20020922.zip
gtk+-dev-1.3.0-20020912.zip

But on the page http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/downloads.html
I couldn't find these, so I downloaded

glib-2.2.1.zip
glib-dev-2.2.1.zip
gtk+-1.3.0-20030216.zip
gtk+-dev-1.3.0-20030115.zip

Before I go mucking around in the makefile to
make sure it is referring to the libs these
produce, are these okay to use instead of the
one on Nardy's page?

In instruction 3.b.2 it says to

"Extract libintl.h and localcharset.h to  [drive]:\mingw\include"

The libiconv-1.8-w32-1.bin.zip I downloaded doesn't
have a localcharset.h file.  It has a localcharset.dll
and a libcharset.h.

---

Finally, instruction "5. Copy DLLs" says to copy
freetype2.dll.  I don't have this file.  I have
freetype.dll.

I found libxml2.dll in [drive]:\mingw\bin rather than lib.

---

Below are the DLLs that I have in [drive]:\gnubg.
(Should they be in \gnubg\lib?)

freetype.dll
freetype2.dll
gdbm.dll
iconv.dll
libgdk-0.dll
libglib-2.0-0.dll
libgmodule-2.0-0.dll
libgtk-0.dll
libintl-1.dll
libpng.dll
libxml2.dll
zlib.dll

(freetype.dll and freetype2.dll are copies of the same file.)

Using nardy.bat, I get a bunch of linker errors, like this:

gnubg.o(.text+0xc555):gnubg.c: undefined reference to `rdAppearance'
gnubg.o(.text+0xc55a):gnubg.c: undefined reference to
`RenderPreferencesCommand
...
set.o(.text+0x2046):set.c: undefined reference to `rdAppearance'
set.o(.text+0x204b):set.c: undefined reference to `RenderPreferencesParam'

Thanks a lot,
David
