Ah ok, got it now. :) Building GUI with MSVC involves extending the toolchain scripts to build the necessary dependencies (libtiff, libpng, etc.), plus necessary changes in libs-gui (e.g. annotating all classes with GS_EXPORT_CLASS and tweaking configure to find dependencies). I have work-in-progress branches here from a couple months ago but there were still some things missing (the CI build currently fails because libtiff is not found): https://github.com/gnustep/tools-windows-msvc/tree/libs-gui https://github.com/gnustep/libs-gui/tree/windows-msvc-fixes I probably won’t have time to work on this in the short term, but I hope to take another look in the next couple months.
