I've finally finished building awt with the jpeg and png binaries from the GnuWin32. Everything seems fine. Tests are loading and draw png and jpeg images whithout any problem.
But we face 3 problems here: 1. lcms version in GnuWin32 is not compatible with Harmony. 2. png libary from GnuWin32 requires zlib1.dll which is known as hyzlib.dll in Harmony. 3. Potential license problem mentioned by Geir. 2006/7/13, Geir Magnusson Jr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

No we do not need any source code from GnuWin32 except of binaries. I've used headers, lib and dll files.
If so, we can't use it because of the odd and somewhat confusing restrictions in the license here : http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/license.html
Thanks for pointing on this license. I'm not really sure can we use binaries or not according this license. It seems that we can if the GnuWin32 binaries will be downloaded by the user... But if we can't we still got 3 more options: 1. Build jpeg, png and lcms libraries, put them into Harmony (or other) site and download it from build script. 2. Integrate jpeg, png and lcms sources into Harmony 3. Download jpeg, png and lcms source from their sites and build them from Harmony build script. SY, Alexey -- Alexey A.
