Hey Pierre Olivier,
Glad to hear you are back on the project! mescalinum has made some progress on this in the meantime, and added to the documentation on the wiki:

I couldn't find any hints on WindowsMinGW wiki as what functions I needed. I'll give it a first try wit the old version. And I'll look into the newer files a bit later.
With MinGW, MSYS, should I get Cygwin too?

You probably don't need everything. I'd follow the WindowsMinGW page on that.
Can I just overwrite the old versions with the newer ones so as to keep the general structure of MSYS? Or is this bad practice?
I've generally deleted the old copies before installing new ones.
Do I need to install tortoisesvn to get the pd-extended 0.42.5 svn?
You need either SVN or rsync. The command line versions of both are in Cygwin and easy to install there. You could also use tortoisesvn
Sorry again for the beginner's questions. :)
Keep them coming, getting 64-bit builds on Windows will be a valuable contribution!

Its not as complicated as it looks, its mostly a matter of getting the files in the right places. You should also install MSYS, check the WindowsMinGW page for how. But perhaps you should use a newer version of MSYS. Then try a build, download the Pd-extended source, and do this from the MSYS shell:
cd pd/src make -f makefile.mingw
My guess is that the 64-bit instructions are going to end up looking quite similar to the WindowsMinGW page.

Hi,
I got some help from a hackerlab here in Toulouse, tetalab.org. A lot of cursing and swearing after Windows as you can imagine! :)
I think we have managed to install most of the tool chain last night. We followed the instructions for the 32bit tool chain. Most of the tool chain is 32bit programs but MingW, which is 64bit. We got to the stage of the ASIO SDK (included). It was late when we finished and didn't have the time to try and run a compilation.
Should I get the source from the git or the svn? I've seen you switched over the last weeks.
If I can recollect all he did, I'll try to add that to the wiki page.
See you on IRC. My alias is 'pob'.

If you are still game, I would start with the code from git, and once you get that working, then you can try to take on Pd-extended! That means compiling lots of libraries.

Hi,
I haven't given up. I've seen Mescalinum has succeeded in a first compilation. That's great news and also the release of pd-ext 0.42.5. I have a lot of work until the end of the month as I told you, I won't have much time to look into this. I'll get back to you as soon as I get this exhibition up.
I'm making fake archives for he first man on the Moon who wasn't American as we all think, but from some forlorn part of the countryside where they ran out of pastures for their cows and had to terraform the Moon to have more fields for grazing. The basic question out of all this might be why aren't rural cultures very conquering powers?

I was just taking a look at how many different nightly builds we have vs. the PdLab page vs. the current buildbot setup. Please update me with these: Debian squeeze, Debian etch : chroot on 128.238.56.50, right? Ubuntu Hardy LPIA : chroot on 128.238.56.55 Ubuntu Karmic i386, Ubuntu Karmic LPIA : chroot on 128.238.56.55 ? there is just one other chroot directory there which is called hardy...

Yes I retired the etch chroot since etch is no longer supported at all.
Ubuntu Hardy LPIA : chroot on 128.238.56.55
yup.
Ubuntu Karmic i386,
its own box 128.238.56.53, now being upgraded to maverick.
Ubuntu Karmic LPIA : chroot on 128.238.56.55 ? there is just one other chroot directory there which is called hardy...
My netbook, soon to be upgraded to Maverick and taken out of regular build service.
