does anyone have any pointer on what i need to do to get this to build on windows? i've never really been able to get pd externals to compile on windows, so i must doing sometihng obviouisly wrong ;)
it's probably that youre using nmake rather than GCC, but i cant be certain as nmake wont install here and the installer service keeps failing with some error about the .NET framework... with GCC:
99% of externals (including vbitmap): s/pd_linux/dll in makefile & add /path/to/pd.dll on the line w/ 'gcc -shared'
1% of externals: a few #defines and/or changes to dlopen() to load other libs like SDL, ruby etc...
Creating library vbitmap.lib and object vbitmap.exp vbitmap.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __ftol2 referenced in function _vbitmap_draw_update vbitmap.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _sys_noloadbang
looks like MSVC is broken (first error) and your pd.lib is old (second error)
referenced in function _vbitmap_loadbang vbitmap.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 2 unresolved externals NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'link' : return code '0x460' Stop.
