You can follow the instructions "2.4.3 Windows using MinGW" in the CS manual (http://www.crystalspace3d.org/docs/online/manual/MinGW.html) for setting up a Jam-based build environment on Windows. The instructions tell you how to install MinGW, MSYS, and cswin32libs. Furthermore, if you want to generate VC project files, you will need to have Perl and Template Toolkit2 installed (http://template-toolkit.org/download/index.html#win32). Assuming everything is set up and CS configured properly, you build project files via 'jam msvcgen', which will deposit the generated files into subdirectories of the 'CS/out' folder. You copy the generated files to the CS/mk/msvc* folders. The generated VC project files are perfectly usable when created on Linux. In fact, they are re-generated daily in SVN for Windows by a Linux scheduled job. -- ES ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Crystal-main mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/crystal-main Unsubscribe: mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe
