How to compile & use GLib with MinGW
Question
I want to use the Gnome GLib in a Windows environment using the free MinGW compiler to develop in C. The problem is, I have absolutely no idea how to compile this library. Would any of you please explain what tools are needed to accomplish this and what instructions need to be followed?
Solution
You need to use MSys, it is downloadable from MinGW site. Using MSys you will be able to build GLib: http://www.mingw.org/wiki/Bootstrapping_GLIB_with_MinGW
OTHER TIPS
GLib is available pre-compiled for Windows and has been for ages: http://www.gtk.org/download/windows.php.
