Re: Is possible build latest gnustep from github rep on windows?

[Riccardo Mottola]

Hi,

just to prove things work out of the box if you forget libobjc2 and use gcc...
I also attach a screenshot. Full power on windows! Including basic windows theme with in-windows menus.

This is my output of copy&pasting your program into ProjectCenter on Windows 7
This means I have a working msys2, working core stuff, working ProjectCenter and working program of yours.

so quite powerful.

To remove these warnings, I did alloc an AutoreleasePool (and then release it) with:
NSAutoreleasePool *arp = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];

this yields:

Maybe this helps you in your setup too? In any case, it proves that gcc setup works out of the box.
