2016 notes on trying to build on minwin. See older notes from Thomas Chust below.
# Build must be done from cmd.exe. It doesn't work from mingw shell
# Add to PATH:<verbatim>set PATH=%PATH%;c:\MinGW\bin;c:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin</verbatim>
# make PREFIX=c:\chicken-iup PLATFORM=mingw-msys
With thanks to Thomas Chust, here is the build overview.
* Install a fresh Windows XP and all available system updates in a
virtual machine
* Add C:/Programme/MinGW/bin, C:/Programme/CHICKEN/bin and
C:/Programme/IUP to the system path
* Download and unzip mingw-get 0.1 alpha 5 into C:/Programme/MinGW
* Run `mingw-get install mingw-developer-toolkit mingw32-gcc
msys-bash` in a Windows shell
* Download and unzip CHICKEN 4.6.3
* Run `make PLATFORM=mingw-msys PREFIX=C:/Programme/CHICKEN` and
`make PLATFORM=mingw-msys PREFIX=C:/Programme/CHICKEN install` in
an MSYS shell inside the CHICKEN source directory.
* Download and unzip ffcall 1.10
* Run `./configure --prefix=C:/Programme/CHICKEN`, `make` and `make
install` in an MSYS shell in the ffcall source directory
* Download and unzip IM 3.6.3, CD 5.4.1 and IUP 3.3 into
C:/Programme/IUP
* Delete all Lua related files from C:/Programme/IUP and
C:/Programme/IUP/include — who needs lua if you can have CHICKEN?
;-)
* Checkout the trunk version of the IUP egg from
https://code.call-cc.org/svn/chicken-eggs/release/4/iup/trunk
* Run `CSC_OPTIONS='-IC:/Programme/IUP/include -LC:/Programme/IUP'
chicken-install -D no-library-checks` in an MSYS shell in the IUP
egg source directory
* Run `csi -R iup -e '(let ([dlg (dialog #:title "Test" (button "Push
me!" #:action print))]) (show dlg #:modal? #t))'` to verify the
installation works
