Hi, I think I've been the most recent person to work on the issues of getting glib to work on Cygwin. My patch for glib is here: http://www.whinlatter.uklinux.net/gtk/patches/rl-glib-2.2.3-cygwin.patch.bz2 You can find patches for other GTK+ components in the same directory. This patch was based on the cygnome2 patch, but works and passes the testsuite (IIRC the cygnome patch is against an earlier version). The current (2.4.1) version of glib has these patches integrated with the official release, thanks to the assistance of Tor Lillqvist. However, this does not pass the test for forking processes and spawning threads, meaning you can't build a working thread-aware version of glib. I've asked for assistance from the cygnome folks (as suggested here a week or so back), but not had any reply. I don't have the necessary Cygwin/Windows/threads knowledge to debug this, and so it won't be possible to get a fully functional glib on Cygwin without some assistance, for which I would be very grateful. This is the last testsuite failure to fix. Regards, Roger - -- Roger Leigh Printing on GNU/Linux? http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/ GPG Public Key: 0x25BFB848.
