Re: GTK+, CYGWIN & MSW

2005-04-10 Thread Stefan Kost
Hi Jamiil, that is normal when using Cygwin. If you want a native version use MingW together with the gtk+ builds e.g. Tor offers. Stefan I have finally got an application to compile under cygwin, but to run it I have to launch the X server, 'startx' to be able to run the program under cygwin.

Hi Paul. Why it's not there? The most probable answer is that the indexes, if they were complete, would take up much more space that the original docs. But there are solution to generate indices in your machine. (See below) On Sun, 10 Apr 2005 13:48:57 -0700 (PDT) Paul Santa Maria <[EMAIL PROTECT

Browseable On-line developer documentation?
