Hi,
freetype is installed by cygwin itself, I downloaded the binary version also and putting that in to the path is not making any difference, is there any specific way to do that?
Freetype from cygwin will not work as is. It depends too much on other headers/libs from cygwin. You need to build own copy of freetype. Try following instruction: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2007-August/000187.html -igor
