Hi Michael,
This looks amazing! Last time I built for Windows was ~16 months
ago ...
It was a horrible mess of dependencies installations in Cygwin & really
really
slow process.
Does this change anything ? Or do I still need Cygwin + all the
dependencies
in order to build it on Windows?
i'm afraid for installing things it won't change anything, your build
will just be faster once you're done installing things :)
probably the main roadblock here is legal, since we can't just make a
Windows VM image with everything pre-installed available for download,
for obvious reasons.
we could bundle together the requirements that we are allowed to
re-distribute in a zip file for downloading, but bundling Cygwin in this
way is likely not a good idea, and other than that there are just make,
ant and junit, so not much benefit...
I saw an awesome project to help create a Visual-Studio 2013
project, but I
am guessing that's just for editing & symbols, not for building nativly
on Windows,
right ?
i haven't used the IDE generation stuff myself, i think you can also
build with that but guess it will just be a button that invokes make to
do the actual build.
