Re: [Mingw-cross-env-list] Error building mxe/src/gtk2-test.c

[Alex Zelid]

Well, my bad. Thanks to recent Tony's email and checking i686-w64-mingw32.static-pkg-config --list-all I figured out the right name for GTK and everything compiled well using:

i686-w64-mingw32.static-gcc -I/home/alex/opt/mxe/usr/i686-w64-mingw32.static/include/atk-1.0 -o example-0.exe example-0.c `i686-w64-mingw32.static-pkg-config --libs --cflags gtk+-win32-2.0`

Hello,

I found that MXE includes GTK2 and some sample mxe/src/gtk2-test.c

After checking mxe/usr/i686-w64-mingw32.static/lib/pkgconfig I found that it has gdk-2.0.pc (sounds like gtk-2.0) why the name is gdk and not gtk?

I tried to build it gtk2-test.c:

i686-w64-mingw32.static-gcc -o example-0.exe example-0.c `i686-w64-mingw32.static-pkg-config --libs --cflags gdk-2.0`

and:

i686-w64-mingw32.static-gcc -o example-0.exe example-0.c `i686-w64-mingw32.static-pkg-config --libs --cflags gdk-win32-2.0`

In both cases I got an error:

 #include <atk/atk.h>

                     ^

compilation terminated.

Then I figured out that atk is in it's own subdirectory mxe/usr/i686-w64-mingw32.static/include/atk-1.0/atk

So I added additional include and compiled using:

i686-w64-mingw32.static-gcc -I/home/alex/opt/mxe/usr/i686-w64-mingw32.static/include/atk-1.0 -o example-0.exe example-0.c `i686-w64-mingw32.static-pkg-config --libs --cflags gdk-2.0`

That gives a new error:

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

That I don't know how to handle.

Why we have name GDK instead of GTK and how to compile those simple GTK-2.0 sample?

Thank you,
