In the hope that some may find it useful, I am sharing a new tool set
which creates a VS build environment to build GSL native on Windows.
There's no Cygwin or mingw -- this is a fully native build.
The package does not include a GSL source distribution. Instead it
analyzes and patches the source distribution you provide to create the
VS solution.
I've tested it with off-the-shelf GSL sources from 1.8 to 2.3.
All of the test programs are passing in all versions except for a couple
in version 2.3. I've checked into the 2.3 test failures (on the GSL bugs
mailing list), and have been told they are not really failures -- and
will be fixed in next version.
To match GSL, this tool set is licensed under GPLv2.
Here is the URL for the repository:
https://github.com/aweatherguy/GSL-on-Windows
I'm new to GitHub...but I assume that anyone can log an issue against
the repo...? If so and you find a problem, log an issue and I'll try to
respond.
Cheers,
