Tortoisesvn is getting all the files from svn.
Is there somewhere special I should download them to? I used a folder on
a secondary partition to keep the main partition being overflowed with
compilation files.
F:\pd-ext-compilation\svn\sources\...
I couldn't find any hints on WindowsMinGW wiki as what functions I
needed. I'll give it a first try wit the old version. And I'll look into
the newer files a bit later.
With MinGW, MSYS, should I get Cygwin too?

I didn't catch all I should do with the newer ones.
There are several "base system"/"CORE" files and for the functions
too. Which one(s) is/are the one(s) I need to download. (bin ext doc
dbg dev src lic) ? All of them? Is there a way in Sourceforge to get
all files in one go instead of one by one.
You probably don't need everything. I'd follow the WindowsMinGW page
on that.
Can I just overwrite the old versions with the newer ones so as to
keep the general structure of MSYS? Or is this bad practice?
I've generally deleted the old copies before installing new ones.
Do I need to install tortoisesvn to get the pd-extended 0.42.5 svn?
You need either SVN or rsync. The command line versions of both are
in Cygwin and easy to install there. You could also use tortoisesvn
Sorry again for the beginner's questions. :)
Keep them coming, getting 64-bit builds on Windows will be a valuable
contribution!

Its not as complicated as it looks, its mostly a matter of getting
the files in the right places. You should also install MSYS, check
the WindowsMinGW page for how. But perhaps you should use a newer
version of MSYS. Then try a build, download the Pd-extended source,
and do this from the MSYS shell:
cd pd/src
make -f makefile.mingw
My guess is that the 64-bit instructions are going to end up looking
quite similar to the WindowsMinGW page.

Hello Hans and everyone,
Thank you for the encouragment. It might take time, indeed. :)
OK, I installed the tdm-gcc.tdragon.net x32 and x64 MinGW.

I would avoid trying to build anything and instead install from
binaries. Building compilers can be a real pain. Cygwin is quite
easy to install, so I see no harm in installing it.
I created a wiki page to document our progress, everyone should
write notes there:
https://puredata.info/docs/developer/Windows64BitMinGWX64
Upon looking at it, I think a good place to start is by
downloading the most recent of mingw-w64-bin-x86_64:
http://www.drangon.org/mingw/
This looks even more promising though:

Hello everyone,
I'm new here. I've offered to help with the Windows 64bit build.
I'm really new to compiling software, so I'll probalby need some
help to get started. If you think this is unmanageable for a
beginner don't be afraid to tell me so. I have some good will and
patience, but I don't want to waste anyone's time. :)
I'm reading the MinGW-w64 pages on Sourceforge.
I should be looking for a native compiler for w64, but I can't
seem to find any. I suppose since it's a native compiler I can
build it myself. Is this correct. Then, should I download a
tarball and compile from the source?
Otherwise I found what seems to be a native version here:
http://www.drangon.org/mingw/
I cannont find either the MinGW-get installer mentioned on the
32bit version of the instructions. I suppose there is nothing
similar for the 64bit version for the time being.
I suppose I have to get Cygwin for compilation too. Anything I
should pay special attention to concerning this?
Thanks for your help

A Windows 7 build sounds like a good idea. The first place to
start is getting a MinGW-w64 build environment setup. If you
get that installed, then first try just building the core of
pd-extended without all the libraries. That shouldn't be too
hard to get going.
http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/
Here is the whole instructions for the 32-bit environment:
http://puredata.info/docs/developer/WindowsMinGW
Perhaps it makes sense to continue this discussion on pd-dev?

Hello,
I've been using Puredata for a year now and I'd be glad to help
with the new release.
I'll be getting a new computer for performances in the coming
up week.
It will be an Asus N82 (it's not on their website at the moment).
Intel Core i7 - 720QM (quad core) with 4GB of RAM an Nvidia
Geforce GT335M
The OS is a Windows 7 64bit. I might install some linux distro
too alongside the original OS.
I can leave the computer on as much as needed for the autobuild
process. I will use the computer for my own too. But I can
leave it on at night.
I don't know if you want specifically Windows XP or if Windows
7 which is more and more widespread now can do too.
You can contact me with this email or with skype (same email
address).
Cheers
Pierre-Olivier
