Re: [Inkscape-devel] GTK+ 3 in devlibs?

Hi All,

Is there a way of adding GTK+ 3 (and compatible libs) in Devlibs without breaking GTK+ 2 compatibility? As far as I know, there isn't a way of testing GTK+ 3 experimental builds in Windows. Presumably, DLLs have some sort of equivalent to SO-naming to allow multiple ABI-incompatible versions of a library to be provided?

The GTK+ 2 DLL is called libgtk-win32-2.0-0.dll. The GTK+ 3 DLL would then be called libgtk-win32-3.0-0.dll, so there should be no conflict. There could be some problems with the build process though (copying the correct libraries to the 'inkscape' directory).
