Hello everyone,
i recently had some time to improve the work I have done on getting Inkscape to build on Windows using CMake. My changes are in a branch located here:
lp:~faubulous/inkscape/cmake-win32 https://launchpad.net/~faubulous/inkscape/cmake-win32
CHANGES:
- Improved setting of the environment variables in ConfigPaths.txt along with sanity checks and error messages. - Full support for compiling with 32-bit or 64-bit devlibs/mingw. Simply put the paths in configure.bat and CMake should detect MinGW architecture automatically. - Fixed a bug in config.h.cmake which lead to Inkscape generating messed up APPDIR paths on Windows, which means: there are icons now. :) - Successfully tested C++ plugins.
KNOWN ISSUES
- Putting the locale folder in the generated build output crashes Inkscape on startup. So there are no translations yet. Does anyone have an idea?
I invite everyone interested to checkout the branch and test it. In my point of view it is a substantial improvement over the current state in trunk, that's why I suggest merging it back. Unfortunatly I don't have commit access yet.
Best regards,
Sebastian
