No. They are built with mingw (i.e., gcc). They work fine also with code built with MSVC6. (The binaries use msvcrt.dll. They presumably should also be compatible with code built with current versions of MSVC as long as you don't use API that pass or return file descriptors (the small numbers returned by open() and passed to read() etc) or FILE pointers. Note that file descriptors are specific to the C runtime used, so the file descriptor g_mkstemp() for instance returns wont have the same meaning in a caller that doesn't use the same C runtime.) > or even Open Watcom? No idea about Open Watcom, sorry. Does it use its own C runtime, or what? Are its calling conventions and struct packing the same as MSVC's? --tml _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
