Hi Eric, (I remeber answering this question a couple of times now, here is a sketch for the wiki. Could everyone with experience (Hendrik?) please have a look? See http://dev.zuckschwerdt.org/openobex/wiki/ObexWin32 )
The question wether/how OpenOBEX compiles/runs on win32 pops up now and then. Here is a general overview and a short checklist. Does OpenOBEX compile on win32? Yes. It has been tested with (at least) mingw32 as cross-compiler and native. For a quick guide see the steps below. Your options include: - cross-compiling (with MinGW32), tested - MinGW32, tested - Cygwin, should work - Visual C (and other commercial suites), unknown Does OpenOBEX run on win32? Is it useable? OpenOBEX requires backends for each transport. Your options include: - USB: libusb-win32, works - BT: some BT stack needed, maybe MS or Widcomm? No work done yet - IrDA: some IrDA stack needed, IrCOMM2k looks good. No work done yet - Tcp/Ip: native winsock2, works - Serial: native, custom transport code needed Quick guide to compile OpenOBEX native on win32 - Install MinGW32 - Install MSYS - Install libusb-win32 - Get OpenOBEX from SVN (release 1.3 will not work) - ./configure, make(1)(2) (1) make may fail trying to create a symlink, use "ln -s . include/openobex". (2) if you get a libopenobex.a but no libopenobex.dll: ensure the libusb-win32 are accessible. regards, Christian surfzoid surfzoid schrieb: > I'm just rewriting Jobexftp in C# [...] > does the obex library work under windows as it work great under linux ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
