hello,
i would love to use pdp, pidip and gridfllow but i am running pd on win xp. are there any plans to make them work on win? (please,please,please) if not, will editing the header files be enough to compile for win? or is there more stuff i have to watch out? since i cannot really write c, i got kind of lost with it. any help is highly appreciated. thank you all.

hi flo,
if i't going to happen, it won't be for tomorrow. but i'm not opposed to the idea. porting the processing core shouldn't be too difficult, just like it is done on mac, but it's going to be more work because win is not so unixy as osx..
but, since thomas is showing some interest. who knows :) for one, i can't do it alone. i know jack about win programming..
cheers

I've started tinkering with getting things compiling with MinGW, which is kind of like halfway between Windows and UNIX. Cygwin is another option on Windows, it aims to be a complete UNIX running on top of Windwos, but it can make the app a little strange for the Windows user.
The advantage that MinGW has over Cygwin is that externals compiled with MinGW will work with Pd/etc compiled with VC++ or whatever. I think that if some externals were ported to Cygwin, then they would need Pd running in Cygwin as well in order to work.
I think it would be worth giving MinGW a shot. I'll post to the list when I get something working with MinGW.

FYI, GAIM is compiled for windows using MinGW, so you could look into its makefiles and such if you need pointers:

For GridFlow: it still hasn't been done yet, but last time someone got stuck there was trying to compile GridFlow with only 64M of RAM, which is not enough. So there is still hope that it would work, if you have more RAM than that.
If you are willing to try, you will need Cygwin and Ruby (which is included with Cygwin) and you will need either X11 or SDL for display.
And you won't have any support for cameras. That only works with Linux yet, and I'm about to add it to the Mac port; but anything on Windows is not in the plans, unless someone else contributes that to the project.

hi,
i"m sorry, this is more effort for us to port PDP/PiDiP to that clumsy system that for you to install a small linux partition.
all we are saying is 'give linux a chance'...
cheers, sevy
ps : seriously, PDP/PiDiP is based on unix concepts and libs and it would need a serious rewrite to work on windows. not in my plans, furthermore, by choice, i just don't want to boot on windows.

Hi Yves, c'est dommage, since i'd like to base future versions of VASP (with Python scripting) on PDP. I think we (or i) really _should_ port it to Windows.
best greetings, Thomas

As much as i know of PDP is that there is a generic part (a data processing kernel), matrix transformation stuff and more system-specific io and library depending parts. The first two parts should be quite easily portable, shouldn't they? Maybe Tom can comment on it. For my part (for VASP) i'm only interested in these... the more platform-specific things could follow later. By reading the developer docs i see that there are plans for a PD independent library and a PD interface... that would be exactly what i need and what would be required for a good Windows port.
best greetings, Thomas

true. image processing stuff should be portable. matrix processing is libgsl. opengl is separate, but should be portable too.

it could be done step wize indeed. pdp core is simple and portable, there's just a lot of nonportable legs sticking out at the side, but these could be skipped at first.. and there's always the hard work that has gone into gem that could be used as a cheat sheet.
By reading the developer docs i see that there are plans for a PD independent library and a PD interface... that would be exactly what i need and what would be required for a good Windows port.
this separation is almost finished design-wize. i just need to port a lot of code to the other side of the fence.
