hi hans, hi johannes,
oh i would love that! (but i am booting into w32 so seldomly that i don't think i will get it running on my own). so thoralf ?
It's on my to-do-list, but with a rather low priority. It's something I'm working on on-and-off. Unfortunately, it's a bit more than just fixing up paths to headers and libs. The main things are:
- get gems dependencies to build with mingw. I'm
through with this.
- get the base libs of the m$ platform sdk to compile
with mingw. gem (on win) depends on these when it comes to directshow-stuff (namely, opening movies and getting pictures from frameservers). I did this once when I built gem with dev-c++, so this _should_ be relatively easy to accomplish.
- incorporate mingw as an additional target to the
makefile (or/and) scons configuration. I could definitely need some help here, since I'm not very familiar with this stuff (and don't want to dive too deep into it :-) ).
Unfortunately, I won't be able to work on this during the next - well, two weeks at least (gotta work on my thesis, pay my rent, tvjt, there is a performance, etc). But it's on my agenda.
with kind regards, thoralf.
Well, I am currently working on a Windows port of [hid], so I am
working with DirectX and MinGW. I haven't gotten it going yet, any
tips or docs?
Whenever you are ready to do the Gem thing, you can always post
questions to the list. There are a few of us who have messed with
MinGW: Carmen Rocco, Thomas Grill, Tim Blechmann, and me (any others?)

If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem.
