This relates to my previous commit titled "add a script to generator
files for building" on behalf of Shixin Zeng.
Tell people about the availability of a python script to create the
necessary files for a Visual C++ build from a GIT checkout.
This is done with the courtesy of Shixin Zeng's python script which does
the job and eliminates the troubles of getting a suitable shell environment
to do the "make dist" job (which is especially not easy on Windows itself!)

svn path=/trunk/; revision=5294
2005-01-01 J. Ali Harlow <ali@juiblex.co.uk>
* configure.in: Don't use AC_TRY_RUN to test for long long format
when using the MSVCRT.DLL runtime since we know the answer anyway
and it causes some mild inconvience when cross compiling.
* README.win32: Add a reference to the cross compiling section
of the reference manual.
* docs/reference/glib/cross.sgml: MinGW uses MSVCRT.DLL which
requires %I64i instead of %lli. (#161306)
2004-03-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* README.win32: Update.
* configure.in
* Makefile.am
* */Makefile.am: Drop the hand-written makefile.mingw(.in)
files. They haven't been maintained in a long time. As several
people have managed to build GLib for Win32 using the
autoconfiscation mechanism, there is no real reason to even try to
maintain the hand-written mingw makefiles.
2003-06-15 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* glib-zip.in (DLLDIR): Test where the DLLs actually are.
* README.win32: Point to FSF's binary Win32 distributions of
libiconv and gettext-runtime.
2003-01-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* README.win32: Updates.
* configure.in: Don't use -lm in TRIO_LIBS on Windows, with no
libm. (Mingw has a dummy libm.a, but the .pc file should be
useable by MSVC users, too.)
2002-02-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* README.win32: Edits.
* config.h.win32.in: Add (as undefined) HAVE_UNSETENV,
_FILE_OFFSET_BITS and _LARGE_FILES, just for completeness.
* glibconfig.h.win32.in: Add the gcc-2.95.x undef of
G_HAVE_ISO_VARARGS.
2001-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* README.win32: Minor edits.
* glib-zip.in: Build separate runtime and developer packages.
* glib/libcharset/config.charset (os): Don't need to match mingw
after all, the charset.alias file isn't even used on Win32... (see
localcharset.c).
* glib/makefile.mingw.in: Add gdir.
* glib/glib.def: Add g_dir_* entry points.
2001-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* gobject.rc.in: Correct InternalName and OriginalFilename to
match what we actually produce.
* gmodule.rc.in: Correct InternalName and OriginalFilename to
match what we actually produce.
* gthread.rc.in: Correct InternalName and OriginalFilename to
match what we actually produce.
2001-09-17 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* configure.in: Add variable for LT_CURRENT minus LT_AGE (the
suffix used by libtool on Win32 for DLLs). Set variables for the
compiled resource files on Windows. Handle the native Win32
gthread stuff.
* glib/Makefile.am
* gmodule/Makefile.am
* gobject/Makefile.am: (Win32) Add minor hacks to link in the object
file produced from the resource file. Use the lt-compile-resource
script from the build module. The non-hack way would be to teach
libtool, autoconf and automake about .rc files (which are a kind
of source code, after all, that gets compiled to object
files). But then there would be problems for those who wouldn't have
bleeding edge auto* and libtool.
* glib/glib.def
* gobject/gobject.def: Updates.
* glib/glib.rc.in
* gmodule/gmodule.rc.in
* gobject/gobject.rc.in
* gthread/gthread.rc.in: Update InternalName and OriginalFilename to
match libtool's naming convention for DLLs.
* glib/gutils.c: Ditto when constructing the DLL name in the
definition for GLIB_LOCALE_DIR.
* glib/makefile.mingw.in
* gmodule/makefile.mingw.in
* gobject/makefile.mingw.in
* gthread/makefile.mingw.in: Update import library names.
2001-09-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* README.win32: Update. Don't mention pthreads.
* build-dll: Remove, moved to the build module.
* glibconfig.h.win32.in: Don't mention pthreds here, either.
* glib/gstrfuncs.c: Mark the correct variable for export from DLL.
* glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_msg_create_watch): Owen forgot to
rename the win32_watch_funcs variable here, too.
* */makefile.mingw.in: Don't use version number in import library
name. Use whole version number in DLL name. Use build-dll from the
build module.
2001-03-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* gutils.c (g_path_is_absolute): (Win32) Remove test for initial
double backslash (UNC path), this will of course be matched by the
test for an initial G_DIR_SEPARATOR right up front. Silly me.
(g_find_program_in_path): Implement on Win32.
(g_get_any_init): (Win32) Also look for the USERPROFILE env var
indicating the home directory equivalent.
* testglib.c (main): Test g_find_program_in_path() on Win32 by
looking for more.com and regedit.exe.
* glib.def: Add g_find_program_in_path.
2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* makefile.mingw.in
* tests/makefile.mingw.in
* build-dll: Rename makefile.cygwin(.in) to
makefile.mingw(.in), which better describes what it is. Move the
build of gmodule, gthread and gobject DLLs to makefiles in those
directories. Move resource file handling and build number bump to
build-dll, where it sits much cleaner.
* README.win32
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Update accordingly.
* glib.h: Add G_PI, G_PI_2, G_PI_4, G_E, G_LN2, G_LN10 and
G_SQRT2. M_PI etc aren't necessarily in <math.h> in strict ISO C
implementations.
* glib.def: Add g_strcanon.
* gtree.c (g_tree_node_rotate_left): Remove unused variables.
* gwin32.c (g_win32_opendir): Remove unneeded statement.
gmodule:
* makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gmodule stuff
moved from ../makefile.mingw.in.
* Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, and add rule to make makefile.mingw.
gobject:
* makefile.mingw.in
* gobject.def
* gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build.
* Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the
corresponding non-*.in files.
* gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for
export/import from DLL.
gthread:
* makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gthread stuff moved from
../makefile.mingw.in.
* Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, add rule to build makefile.mingw.
2000-03-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* README.win32: Tell about using the mingw-based gcc, which is
much easier than modifying the cygwin gcc to product mingw code
for the msvcrt runtime.
* makefile.cygwin.in (WIN32APIHEADERS): Kludge to make it work
with a "pure" mingw gcc, too.
2000-02-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* README.win32: Add a missing step to the setup instructions for
gcc-2.95.2. Thanks to Arnaud Charlet.
* glib.def: Add missing entry point.
2000-02-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* glib.h
* gstrfuncs.c (g_filename_to_utf8, g_filename_from_utf8): New
functions for conversion between UTF-8 and the encoding expected
by C runtime functions like open() and stat(), and returned by
readdir().
Implement them on Win32 where we use the system "ANSI" codepage,
which might be single-byte or double-byte. On Unix, just skip the
issue for now and provide dummy implementations that return a copy
of the argument.
* README.win32
* build-dll
* glib.def: Minor updates.
* gstrfuncs.c (g_strccpy, g_strecpy): New functions.
* glib.h: Declare and document them. Define the deprecated
g_strescape as a macro that calls g_strecpy.
* tests/strfunc-test.c (main): Test them.
* makefile.{cygwin,msc}.in
* tests/makefile.{cygwin,msc}.in: Remove gstack and its test
program.
* glib.def: Additions and removals.
* README.win32: Improve gcc build instructions.
* build-dll: Also build import library for MSVC.
compatibility with MSVC by using the switch -fnative-struct. No
longer build DLLs with .gcc in the name when using gcc.
* README.win32: Renew gcc build instructions.
* build-dll: Comments change, handle also .a files.
* makefile.cygwin.in
* tests/makefile.cygwin.in: Remove .gcc from DLL name.

* build-dll: Combine commands with &&.
* glib.h: Map also rmdir() and hypot() for MSVCRT library.
* makefile.cygwin.in
* tests/makefile.cygwin.in: New DLL naming style. GCC-compiled DLLs are
now called *.gcc.dll, to avoid binary incompatibilities with
MSVC-compiled versions.
* makefile.msc.in: Cosmetics.
* README.win32: Update the pthreads snapshot version we want.
Advice how to hand-expand the makefile.*.in files.
* config.h.win32.in: Define values needed by Sebastian Wilhelmi's
new thread stuff.
* glib.def: Add new functions.
* glibconfig.h.win32.in: Update the pthreads snapshot version.
Fix typo.
* gthread.c: Include config.h, guard inclusion of unistd.h. When
using gcc on Win32, g_thread_functions_for_glib_use must be marked
for export here, too.
* gtimer.c: Implement g_usleep on native Win32 using Sleep (which
only has millisecond granularity, though).
* makefile.cygwin.in
* makefile.msc.in: Update pthreads snapshot version. File
name changes. Remove testgthread.
* tests/makefile.cygwin.in
* tests/makefile.msc.in: Add thread-test. Link with gthread lib.
* gthread-posix.c: Guard pthread_attr_setscope call with test
for _POSIX_THREAD_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING, which should be defined
in a <pthread.h> that supports that feature.
* glib.h (Win32): Map fileno to _fileno for mingw32. Map fstat to
_fstat.
* README.win32: Advice also to remove -lmoldname from the
patch to the egcs-1.1.2 spec file patch.
* makefile.msc.in makefile.cygwin.in glibconfig.h.win32.in
config.h.win32.in tests/makefile.msc.in tests/makefile.cygwin.in:
New files, used to generate corresponding non-.in files when
making a dist. This is just so the version numbers will be kept in
synch automatically.
* configure.in: Also substitute @GLIB_MAJOR_VERSION@,
@GLIB_MINOR_VERSION@, and @GLIB_INTERFACE_AGE@.
* Makefile.am tests/Makefile.am: Also distribute makefile.cygwin.
* gerror.c (g_on_error_query): On Win32, put up a MessageBox and
then exit.
* glib.def: Add a couple of functions.
* README.win32: More editing.
* build-dll: Use gcc, not ld to link.
* glib.h: On native Win32 use _unlink().
* gscanner.c: Use corrent NATIVE_WIN32 feature test macro,
not _MSC_VER.
* gstring.c: Include <io.h> on Win32 for _read prototype.
* gutils.c: Remove old IO channel code (was in #if 0).
* makefile.cygwin: Don't need to link with kernel32 and msvcrt
explicitly, they are included anyway.
i.e. gcc -mno-cygwin on cygwin (a.k.a. mingw32, using egcs-1.1.2).
* README.win32: Updated.
* build-dll makefile.cygwin tests/makefile.cygwin: New files.
* glib.h glib.def glibconfig.h.win32 makefile.msc: Slight updates.
* gmain.c: No need to include <fcntl.h> and <io.h> on Win32.
* gmain.c gutils.c testglib.c tests/string-test.c: Test for
NATIVE_WIN32, not _MSC_VER.
* gmutex.c: Must declare g_thread_functions_for_glib_use as
exported (using the GUTILS_C_VAR macro).
* gutils.c gmodule/libgplugin_[ab].c: LibMain not needed.
* gmodule/gmoduleconf.h.win32: Need underscore with gcc.
* gthread/gthread.c: With gcc on Win32, must use memcpy to assign
value of g_thread_functions_for_glib_use (?).
* makefile.msc tests/makefile.msc: Cosmetics.
* README.win32: Mention the tests directory.
* glib.def: Add the functions from grand.c.
* glibconfig.h.win32: Add unsigned max values, and the format
strings.
* makefile.msc: Add grand.
* tests/{date-test,node-test}.c: Include <stdlib.h> for exit().
* tests/makefile.msc: New file.
* config.h.win32: Update version numbers.
* glibconfig.h.win32: Update version numbers and pthreads-win32-
related magic values.
* README.win32: Some improvements.
* makefile.msc: Add gqueue and gstack. Correct version number.
* README.win32: More text.
* config.h.win32 glibconfig.h.win32: Update to match the
corresponding generated files on Unix.
* makefile.msc: Update with new source files, and gthread
library. Use the compiler flag -MD instead of using -D_DLL and
"/nodefaultlib:libc msvcrt.lib" in the link phase.
* glib.def: Include new functions, drop removed ones.
* glib.h: Add comments about main loop and polling on Win32. (In
general, it's only for the GIMP's use.) Add Win32 IO Channel
functions. Remove the obsoleted old IO Channel stuff (which was
in #if 0 already).
* giowin32.c: New file.
* gmain.c: Include config.h, conditionalize <sys/time.h>
inclusion. Add g_poll implementation for Win32 (only for the
GIMP's needs for now, it's hard or even impossible to be as clean
and generic as on Unix). Implement g_get_current_time on Win32. If
threads aren't supported, don't try to wake up main thread's
loop. On Win32, use a semaphore and not a pipe to wake up the main
loop.
* gmessages.c: On Win32, allocate a console window if the standard
output handle is invalid before writing to stdout, and reopen stdout
to that console window.
* giochannel.c: Conditionalize unistd.h inclusion. Some indentation
cleanup.
* gstrfuncs.c: Include <signal.h>.
* gutils.c: On Win32, also check the HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH
environment variables.
* gmodule-dl.c gmodule-dld.c: In
_g_module_build_path, don't add the "lib" prefix and
".so" or ".sl" suffix if already there.
* gmodule-win32.c: Likewise for the ".dll" suffix.
* gthread-posix.c: Conditionalize <sys/time.h> inclusion.
