Hello, I'm trying to compile dui on windows with dmd. The library is created correctly, but when I try to make the tests I get a load of symbol undefined errors. Both release 3 and svn code gave the same results. Here is a sample of my output:

I have gtk+ runtime installed as well.
Any help would be apreciated

Sounds like it's not finding the libs. Does dmd know where to look? did you try using the -I flag on the paths? Let us know!

[scooterman]

Well, I was using the makeall.bat file. On my unix box everthing worked fine. I have to set any configuration to make it work in windows??

Thanks

[okibi]

It should just work. Can we see your link command line? Also, did you try using the -I flag to import like I suggested?

[Nox / Lux]

I have the same problem as the author of this thread. The output looks like this:

[okibi]

Like with the author, it sounds like it's not finding the libs. Try using the -I flag on the paths. What command are you using to compile/link?

[Carlos]

Don't you need to link with a gtk+ lib? Passing -I won't help, as it's the linker which is failing.

[okibi]

*looks again*

You're right! I didn't notice that it was failing with actually linking to the gtk+ libs. I just assumed he meant that he had the same problem as the author, like he said, which is that it couldn't find the gtkd lib.

Sorry, Carlos is correct.

[Nox / Lux]

Oh, sorry about that. I have not really understood the nature of the problem. I thought I'd follow the old tenet "better to post in an existing thread than start a new one". Bugger.

Does the linker need to find gtkd.lib only, or is it also required to find some of the actual gtk libs/dlls? Are the functions it complains about things that should be present in gtkd.lib, but are not?

By the way, I am using DMD 1.014, although I tried with 1.010 as well, with the same result.

[Nox / Lux]

Addendum: I get the same errors as the author when running makeAll. If at all interesting, I have uploaded a log of makeAll.bat output here.


Hmm... Any ideas why it complains about missing symbols INSIDE the lib?

[okibi]

So it's creating your gtkd.lib file, but crashes when it tries to compile GtkDTests because the lib can't wrap the gtk dlls.

Where do you have the dlls installed? Do they have their entries in the registry? Currently, gtkD tries to find the location of the dlls in the registry, and if it can't, it defaults to C:\Program Files\Common Files\GTK\2.0\bin.

Let me know if that helps!

[Nox / Lux]

Thanks for the feedback! Now, I have GTK here:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\GTK\2.0\bin\libgtk-win32-2.0-0.dll

So it should be alright I guess. I do not exactly know how the registry entries are supposed to be set up, but they ARE there. I uploaded the registry entry for GTK here.

[okibi]

Ok, so your dlls are fine. It must be a problem in the compd script.

Do you have bud? If not, get it.

Save the following code as budGtkDTests.bat in your gtkD folder with the other scripts:

[Carlos]

You have the dll, but the linker needs a lib. Use lib (it should be in your dmc bin directory) to create an import library from the dll. Then, pass that to dmd.
