Hi Laurence,
I investigated your issues a bit more. Here is what I found:
(1) osgPlugin: jpeg
Problem: boolean is not defined
This comes from the fact that the version of the jpeg headers included
in MinGW defines JPEG_boolean (and JPEG_FALSE/JPEG_TRUE) instead of
boolean (and FALSE/TRUE). I think this is a good idea as it avoids
possible name clashes, but in this case it causes problems.
What I find weird is that I looked at both the headers in the Win32 VC8
dependencies package (which is fairly old) and the headers on an
up-to-date Ubuntu install, and both define straight boolean (not
JPEG_boolean as the MinGW header defines). In both cases, the jmorecfg.h
header states:
Copyright (C) 1991-1997, Thomas G. Lane.
The MinGW header states:
Copyright (C) 1991-1997, Thomas G. Lane.
Modified 1997-2009 by Guido Vollbeding.
So it would seem the MinGW header is more recent, or just that it
includes changes that were not integrated into the baseline? That seems
a bit weird to me, that the MinGW header would be more recent than
what's on an up-to-date Ubuntu install...
Anyways, I'll see if I can code up a solution that will allow us to
compile in both cases.
(2) osgPlugin: freetype
Problem: It can't find the freetype header files
Actually, you could fix this without any code changes:
1. open an msys prompt
2. cd /mingw/include
3. ln -s freetype2 freetype
That way the include files will be found.
(3) osgPlugin: curl
As I said, the required libraries are added at
src/osgPlugins/curl/CMakeLists.txt inside an IF(WIN32) which works for
VC++ builds. Seems the Msys build doesn't go into that IF, so I'll look
into adding the proper check (probably "|| MINGW" or something like
that. That should take care of it.
Stay tuned...
J-S
