Building gtkmathview on Windows

What You Need

•

MinGW/MSYS (See Setting Up a Build Environment - you need pkg-config too)

•

Building libxml2 on Windows - install this

•

glib and glib-dev (I used 2.14.4 from ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/)

•

gettext and gettext-dev (I used 0.14.5 from ftp.gnome.org - see the "dependencies" directory there inside win32.)

How To Build

Start MSYS

Unzip the latest gtkmathview tarball (preferred), or download the gtkmathview SVN module from GNOME SVN with svn co http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gtkmathview/trunk gtkmathview

In MSYS, cd into that directory

Execute the following commands in that directory in MSYS

./autogen.sh (for SVN gtkmathview builds only)

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/mingw/lib/pkgconfig CC=g++ ./configure --prefix=/mingw --disable-boxml --disable-gmetadom --disable-libxml2-reader --disable-debug --disable-custom-reader --enable-pipe --disable-tfm --disable-svg --disable-gtk --with-t1lib=no --disable-ps --enable-libxml2 --enable-shared

make && DESTDIR=/c/binaries/libmathview-0.7.8 make install

Backup the /c/binaries/libmathview-0.7.8/bin/* files, then execute strip on each.

To create packages to redistribute of mathview, separate the files into regular (bin, etc, share, man) and -dev (lib, include). These files can be then unzipped and overlayed onto MinGW
