3630 | 1 How to build Gaim using MinGw |
2 ============================= | |
3 | |
4 Set Up Build Environment | |
5 ------------------------ | |
6 | |
7 - Install Cygwin bash shell (www.cygwin.com). | |
8 | |
9 - Install MinGw v1.1 (http://www.mingw.org) | |
10 Make sure to read the installation instructions. Make sure to set MinGw's | |
11 bin directory in your PATH (in .bash_login), before Cygwin's bin dir | |
12 (so that mingw's build tools are used over cygwin's). | |
13 | |
14 Install LIBs, DLLs and headers used by GAIM | |
15 ------------------------------------------- | |
16 | |
17 Assuming you have the gaim sources in ~/gaim, you will need to do the | |
18 fowllowing: | |
19 | |
20 GTK & GLIB (v 2.0.6 as of writing) | |
21 ---------------------------------- | |
22 | |
23 $ mkdir -p ~/win32-dev/gtk_2_0/zips | |
24 | |
25 Download the following from thw win32 download page at www.gtk.org to the | |
26 zips dir you just created: | |
27 | |
28 atk-1.0.3-20020821.zip | |
29 atk-dev-1.0.3-20020821.zip | |
30 gettext-dev-0.10.40-20020904.zip | |
31 glib-2.0.6-20020802.zip | |
32 glib-dev-2.0.6-20020802.zip | |
33 gtk+-2.0.6-20020921.zip | |
34 gtk+-dev-2.0.6-20020921.zip | |
35 libiconv-1.7-w32.bin.zip | |
36 libintl-0.10.40-tml-20020904.zip | |
37 libjpeg-6b-bin.zip | |
38 libpng-1.2.4-1-bin.zip | |
39 pango-1.0.4-20020921.zip | |
40 pango-dev-1.0.4-20020921.zip | |
41 tiff-3.5.7-bin.zip | |
42 zlib-1.1.4-bin.zip | |
43 | |
44 $ cd ~/win32-dev/gtk_2_0/zips | |
45 $ unzip -d .. <all zip files> | |
46 | |
47 $ cd .. | |
48 $ cp lib/libintl-1.dll ./bin | |
49 $ cd libiconv-1.7-w32.bin | |
50 $ cp iconv.exe ../bin | |
51 $ cp iconv.lib ../lib | |
52 $ cp localcharset.dll ../lib | |
53 $ cp iconv.dll ../lib | |
54 $ cp iconv.dll ../bin | |
55 $ cp iconv.h ../include/ | |
56 $ cp libcharset.h ../include/ | |
57 | |
58 NOTE: If you use a more recent versions of any of these packages, you may | |
59 need to move files around so that they can be found when Gaim is built. | |
60 | |
61 Perl56 | |
62 ------ | |
63 | |
64 Download perl-5.6.1 from www.cpan.org. You can build perl56 yourself if | |
65 you have MS Visual C++, or you can download a win32 binary distribution | |
66 (I tried SiePerl successfully). In either case make sure you do the | |
67 following: | |
68 | |
69 $ mkdir -p ~/win32-dev/perl56 | |
70 | |
71 Copy Perl's "CORE" directory to ~/win32-dev/perl56 as well as "perl56.dll" | |
72 and "perl56.lib". | |

97 | |
98 Run Gaim | |
99 -------- | |

103 | |
104 That's it.. | |
105 | |
106 Note: If you wish to build an install exe of Gaim, then you need to install | |
107 NSIS from http://www.nullsoft.com/free/nsis/ making sure to place its | |
108 binary dir in your PATH. Then... | |

113 Debugging | |
114 --------- | |
115 | |
116 There is quite a good "Just In Time" debugger for MinGw: | |
