Ok, I can now build the gda-dev2 branch on my system. Thanks for the help on
that.
I then ran the dist.sh script to build the setup.exe, I had to add the
following to the prepare function:
_LIBGDA_UDIR=`unix_path $LIBGDA_DIR`
to get dist.sh to run.
I installed the setup.exe and gnucash runs but I'm not sure how to get it to
use a GDA connection. I don't even know how to configure a gda connection.
Is there documentation somewhere about setting this up? I'd like to run with
mySQL but I'd work with sqllite if that's easier to setup.
Thanks,
karim b

What is the appropriate place? I went into the
c:/soft/gnucash/repos
directory and did an svn switch to the gda-dev2 branch but a
checkout
then created a c:/soft/gnucash/repos/gda-dev2 directory were it
dropped
the gda-dev2 files. Is that where they should go?
The default is to check out
[5]http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/ to c:/soft/gnucash/repos
You will need to checkout (or switch) c:/soft/gnucash/repos to have a
checkout of [6]http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/branches/gda-dev2
This can be done manually or you can remove c:/soft/gnucash/* , add
REPOS_URL="[7]http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/branches/gda-dev2"; to
your custom.sh and re-run install.sh
Thanks,
Karim B
