no, gtk on windows doesn't suck, but at the same time, isn't issued by microsoft either, thus different (wrt IDE's), requiring some "by-hand" work.
i have a rather large project, designed under linux, also cross-compiled into windows binaries. i've gone down both roads of compiling directly under windows (cygwin), and now simply cross-compiling on LINUX, even going so far as to create the install .exe on LINUX. both solutions work, and, as far as i'm concerned, it works great (when the "by-hand" setup is not regarded as a hindrance). maybe it doesn't work for you, or the way you'd like, but then almost the entirety of MS output falls into that category for me. *de gustibus non est disputandum* ciao, richard On Mon, May 30, 2011 at 11:52 AM, Lothar Scholz <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello Robert, > > RP> There really isn't any point trying to make people like Lothar see the > RP> light.
