Hi,
Now that 1.22 is out, how about removing the MSYS build dependency
under Win~1? I tried to compile Geany with the default MinGW make,
without any MSYS, and there were some easily fixable problems:
cd foo&& $(MAKE) -f makefile.win32&& cd ..\..
does not work, probably requires some sh. But if we depend on GNU make
(which seems to be the case, since we're using ifdef/else/endif), it's
easier and shorter to:
$(MAKE) -C foo -f makefile.win32
Linking does not work, because the stock make supports \ only for
variables, not commands. But that's even easier to fix:
STLIBS
= ../scintilla/scintilla.a ../tagmanager/tagmanager.a ../tagmanager/mio/mio.a
$(TARGET): $(OBJS) $(RES) $(STLIBS)
$(CXX) $(OBJS) $(RES) -o $(TARGET) $(STLIBS) $(ALL_GTK_LIBS)
$(WIN_LIBS)
with the added benefit that static library names are not repeated
literally.
There is also some inconsistency: CP = copy, but "cp -r" and "cp" at
the end of makefile. The install target can be rewritten as several
-$(MD) and non-recursive $(CP) commands, and no MSYS will be required.
RFC. If we consider this worthy, I can make the required changes.
I have started working on this before:
https://gist.github.com/1494603
It builds but isn't perfect, like it doesn't do the icon/resource stuff,
and doesn't use win32-conf.h properly, but it might be useful for a
starting point. It's what I use for testing Geany on Windows.
Cheers,
Matthew Brush
