Hello,

I've successfully managed to build Geany on MSYS2, against both gtk2
and gtk3. I've started to describe the steps on the wiki:
https://wiki.geany.org/howtos/win32/msys2, however the page is not
complete yet (but complete enough to produce a running geany).
Actually I noticed that they even have Geany PKGBUILD in their
MSYS2-packages repository (https://github.com/Alexpux/MSYS2-packages).
I
was able to build and install it in without problems. This makes
setting
environment for working on plugins  in windows very easy.

Best regards,
Yury Siamashka

Hey, this is cool. Now we only need to figure out how to create an installer.
Basically it is quite easy with the existing geany.nsi and the NSIS
package (Nullsoft Installer).

It only requires a Geany installation and a stripped down GTK tunetime
environment to be packed into the installer.
What this is, is documented at
http://wiki.geany.org/howtos/win32/build#create_a_stripped_down_gtk_runtime_environment.
Maybe we can adopt this to the self-compiled GTK environment.

I could work on this but would delay this a bit until past the 1.25
release. Simply to not break things before a release.

Regards,
Enrico

Why do you say self-compiled GTK? It is readily packaged for msys, I think we should be able to use that.

Even geany is packaged already, which is great for plugin developers to test on Windows. It's not suitable for end-user distribution though, I'd say, therefore we still want our own installer.

Best regards.
