Re: [Vala] any latest vala binary for windows?
Hi Daniel, Im compiling Vala on Windows since years without any problems. Maybe the following "receipe" will help: Note: Use Win7 and above Note: I'm using the 32 Bit MSYS2 version for some reason Note: I'm using the same versions of Vala and Gee as on my Ubuntu 16.04 * Get MSYS2: http://repo.msys2.org/distrib/i686/msys2-i686-20180531.exe * Start the MSYS2 exe and install to C:\msys * Start c:\msys\msys2.exe * pacman -Syu * Close MSYS window * Start c:\msys\msys2.exe again * pacman -Syu * pacman -S gcc make tar glib2-devel base-devel * wget --no-check-certificate https://download.gnome.org/sources/vala/0.30/vala-0.30.1.tar.xz * tar xJf vala-0.30.1.tar.xz * cd vala-0.30.1 * ./configure * make * make install * valac --version * wget --no-check-certificate https://download.gnome.org/sources/libgee/0.18/libgee-0.18.0.tar.xz * tar xJf libgee-0.18.0.tar.xz * cd libgee-0.18.0 * ./configure * make * make install Regards, Bernhard ___ vala-list mailing list vala-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/vala-list

You will want to run in mingw64.exe for native Windows development. More options are give in the Vala wiki: https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Vala/ValaOnWindows Your undefined references, e.g. c:(.text+0xd2f): undefined reference to `g_type_check_instance_cast', are GLib symbols. I think it means the build is not finding the GLib C headers. The C headers should be in the include directory given by pkg-config --cflags glib-2.0 Good luck, Al ___ vala-list mailing list vala-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/vala-list

Re: [Vala] any latest vala binary for windows?
thanks, but this github's build uses installed vala to compile latest source, in other words, there is no pre-built binary. It installs mingw-w64-x86_64-vala-0.38.4-1 first, which happens do not work on my MSYS2(no matter I input `valac`, `valac --help`, `valac test.vala`, there is no message displays; `valac test.vala` does not produce any C file) Years ago, vala did not work on my MSYS2. Years later, it fails too. Maybe vala loves Linux better. Perhaps this is my last time to try vala before I totally switch to nim for which I can build the latest version without any problem. bye. good luck to vala and me Al Thomas 于2018年9月20日周四 上午8:01写道： > > > On Thursday, 20 September 2018, 00:45:51 BST, oyster via vala-list > > wrote: > > I give up building from source.
