Hello, first time post... I write win32 C++ code would like to learn the feel of objective-C and the NextStep Framework. After a day of surfing, downloading, compiling and installing GNUstep-base-1.10.1-gui-0.9.4.exe, I understand the basics of building GNUstep based applications on the win32+mingw platform and can compile and link many of the example GUI programs found in gnustep-examples-1.0.0. I cannot, however, get either Gorm 0.9.2 or ProjectCenter 0.4.2 to link due to dllwrap.exe and/or dlltool.exe (I think). Please see compiler output at the end of this post for details related to my attempt to compile and link Gorm.
Question 1: Has has anyone gotten either Gorm or ProjectCenter to compile and run in the new win32 base-1.10.1+gui-0.9.4 environment? Question 2: I notice there is recent win32 development activity. Should potential win32 users and wanna-be developers just hold tight? Thanks, GNUstep on win32 looks very promising.
