<snip> So if you're building your app with VS2008 you should link
against GTK's supplied VS2008 modules (or if you've got the time and
confidence, build the GTK+ stack yourself, using the supplied VS2008
projects).
Yes, so this is the main reason why building the GTK+ stack is also
supported for Visual Studio 2008/2010.
But therein lies the problem... the VS projects aren't maintained any more
AFAIK. :-(
The projects for GLib, ATK, GDK-Pixbuf, Pango and GTK+ are kept
up-to-date for Visual Studio 2008 and 2010, at least for the library
DLLs, as I happen to be the one that maintains them. The latest stable
release tarballs of GLib, Pango, ATK, GDK-Pixbuf and GTK+ (2 and 3)
should be building as long as the dependencies outlined in
https://live.gnome.org/GTK%2B/Win32/MSVCCompilationOfGTKStack are met.
Please let us know via Bugzilla if there is something that's not kept
up-to-date for those. The gdbus-codegen and gio-querymodules GLib tools
are not yet built via the project files, though, which is something I
hope to do soon.
And on the subject of time... let's not forget that there's a much bigger
problem where GTK/Windows is concerned - a now enormous backlog of patches
which nobody ever seems to have the time to apply or test. I can't see the
point in creating sophisticated build methodologies if the end product is still
riddled with bugs that were theoretically fixed years ago.
Having a choice of build methodologies will encourage more devs to build GTK+
themselves - and that's a good thing because it helps them to eliminate
multiple heap managers etc, which is always a boost to reliability. But along
the way, somebody at the GTK end needs to be applying those patches and finally
making a dent in that bug list. That's a big part of the equation that's been
missing since Tor left..
I agree with you here. I think it might be a good idea to eventually put
together lists of items on GNOME Live! that aren't working for the GTK+
stack on Windows so people can see and try to conquer those issues (some
might be even CRT-specific[1])

With blessings.
