Try swapping the order of the include files, that sometimes helps for this issue. -Johan ----- Reply message ----- From: "john Culleton" <John@...1202...> To: <inkscape-devel@...6...> Subject: [Inkscape-devel] Compiling 0.91pre1 Date: Mon, Aug 4, 2014 23:12 I get this error: -------------------------- CXX libdepixelize/kopftracer2011.o In file included from /usr/include/glibmm-2.4/glibmm.h:89:0, from libdepixelize/kopftracer2011.cpp:29: /usr/include/glibmm-2.4/glibmm/threads.h:142:11: error: field 'gobject_' has incomplete type GThread gobject_; ^ /usr/include/glibmm-2.4/glibmm/threads.h: In member function 'GThread* Glib::Threads::Thread::gobj()': /usr/include/glibmm-2.4/glibmm/threads.h:138:41: error: 'gobject_' was not declared in this scope GThread* gobj() { return &gobject_; } ^ /usr/include/glibmm-2.4/glibmm/threads.h: In member function 'const GThread* Glib::Threads::Thread::gobj() const': /usr/include/glibmm-2.4/glibmm/threads.h:139:41: error: 'gobject_' was not declared in this scope const GThread* gobj() const { return &gobject_; } ^ make[3]: *** [libdepixelize/kopftracer2011.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/inkscape-0.91pre1/src' make[2]: *** [all] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/inkscape-0.91pre1/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/inkscape-0.91pre1' make: *** [all] Error 2 ---------------------------------------- I get another kind of error on gobj_ when attempting to compile pre0.

Fix for #601336 (Pattern rotation crash)
by Liam White 04 Aug '14

04 Aug '14

Hi all, I came up with a fix for this week's bug of the week ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/601336 ). However, I'm bringing it up here for two reasons: 1. It's a fairly large patch (and it modifies sp-item.h) 2. It introduces new, little-tested functionality I'm more concerned about the second item on the list. The fix was to introduce separate knots for stroke and fill patterns, and to make stroke pattern transformations independent of fill transformations. If anyone has time, I'd appreciate any feedback. The diff is attached. If for some reason you can't download it, I've also pastebinned it here: http://paste.debian.net/113020/ Thanks, Liam

Windows x64 and gtk3
by Liam White 02 Aug '14

02 Aug '14

Hi all, I've added a gtk3 build rule to the 64-bit Windows devlibs[0]. I'd like people to start testing out the gtk3 look on Windows. As the gtk3 for x86 developers probably figured out, the MS-Windows default theme looks awful with the new gtk3 version[1]. So I've again decided to stick with the Adwaita theme for compilation, which is much nicer[2]. I don't plan on returning to Windows anytime soon, so I would advise all who build on Windows to please fix any problems I might have overlooked in the build rule. Thanks, Liam [0]. See this <http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape-devlibs64/trunk/revision…> [1]. See https://db.tt/js7hR38Y [2]. See https://db.tt/EGwiP0ft

Inkscape Windows compile instructions and MinGW-w64/MSYS2
by Ruben Van Boxem 01 Aug '14

01 Aug '14

Hi everyone, I wanted to explore the possibility of a 64-bit Windows build of Inkscape (for obvious reasons of increased memory availability), and discovered the "effort" had already been done by the great people of MSYS2 and MinGW-w64. I would strongly suggest the Windows developers look into switching to this development platform instead of the current, manually maintained "devlibs" setup. Perhaps this suggestion can be made more plausible if I attempt to explain what MSYS2 and MinGW-w64 provide. MinGW-w64 is an active project that provides Win32 headers and libraries so that GCC can be used on Windows, both 32- and 64-bit. It has replaced "ye olde" MinGW.org on numerous Linux distros (most notably Debian, Fedora, OpenSUSE, Ubuntu, and Arch). It is also the toolchain distributed alongside the Qt SDK releases. MSYS2 is an updated version of the old MSYS (it takes a newer version of Cygwin, applies the MSYS patches, and presto: a Unix shell environment for building Unix/cross-platform software on Windows). Additionally, MSYS2 provides a complete repository of binary packages, linux-distro style. What the developers did was port Arch Linux' package manager, pacman, and create a whole ecosystem around it of ready-made MinGW-w64 packages. The full list can be found here. You'll notice that the list contains a mingw-w64-inkscape package. What this means is that there is an easy way of obtaining/building/... inkscape on Windows, without the need to jump through too many hoops. I'm not saying you guys should drop everything and come hide in the shade of MSYS2, but instead evaluate the current build process on Windows, and perhaps provide a simplified way of developing Inkscape on this platform. A free bonus would be the possibility of providing a 64-bit Inkscape build, which is already possible without any 64-bit Windows patches thanks to good code by you guys ;-). Also note that cross-compilation from Linux shouldn't be much harder either, all the aforementioned distros have an extensive list of MinGW-w64 libraries at their disposal, and using CMake should make it all "just work". The current wiki's instructions look abysmally complicated compared to the simplicity made possible by the MinGW-w64/MSYS2 combo. I strongly hope you take this into consideration, as it will lead to a lower entry for developing Inkscape on windows, which in turn will lead to quicker bug-fixing (I hope ;-)). Thanks and keep up the fine work! Ruben (known as rubenvb in the MinGW-w64 mailing community)
