feedback on 'dia win32 compilation' instructions

[Mike Garnsey <mike_garnsey yahoo com>]

Steffen,

I was finally able to test out your 'dia win32
compilation' 
instructions, and have attached my step-by-step notes
on the 
experience.  By and large, everything went fairly
smoothly.  Thanks again for your efforts!
  
biggest thing I tripped over was figuring out the need
to add 
'art_config.h' into the .\glib\build\win32\make.msc 

On the run-time side, I had to rename the libintl.dll
file 'libintl-1.dll', and had to copy iconv.dll as
libiconv.dll (somehow, both are needed!)

Only problem with the executable is the lack of any
sheets.
(FWIW, File->Plugins shows that all plug-ins are
loaded)
Any ideas how to fix this?

thx, Mike

==========================
1.  unpack build files
==========================

uncompress the following files to $(TOP)

	atk-1.0.3-20020821.zip
	atk-dev-1.0.3-20020821.zip
	dia-CVS-20030105-0823.tar.gz

	pango-dev-1.0.5-20021201.zip
	zlib-1.1.4-bin.zip
	zlib-1.1.4-lib.zip

==========================
2.  setup build environment:
==========================

2.1 in the $(TOP) directory, create/run the 'configure_dia_msvc.bat' script....

	copy dia\config.h.win32 dia\config.h
	move glib-2.0.7 glib
	copy glib\glibconfig.h.win32 glib\glibconfig.h
	copy lib\gtk-2.0\include\gdkconfig.h include\gtk-2.0\
	copy libiconv-1.8-w32-1.bin\*.h include

2.2 edit .\glib\build\win32\make.msc

	update the following elements as follows:
	-----------------------------------------

	ATK_CFLAGS = -I$(TOP)\include\$(ATK)
	ATK_LIBS = $(TOP)\lib\atk-$(ATK_VER).lib
	
	GDK_PIXBUF_LIBS = $(TOP)\lib\gdk_pixbuf-$(GDK_PIXBUF_VER).lib
	
	GLIB_CFLAGS = -I $(GLIB) -I $(GLIB)\glib -I $(GLIB)\gmodule $(INTL_CFLAGS)
	GLIB_LIBS = $(TOP)\lib\glib-$(GLIB_VER).lib $(TOP)\lib\gmodule-$(GLIB_VER).lib $(TOP)\lib\gobject-$(GLIB_VER).lib
	
	GTK2_CFLAGS = $(GLIB_CFLAGS) $(ATK_CFLAGS) -I$(GTK2)\gdk -I$(GTK2)\gdk -I$(TOP)\include\gtk-2.0 -I$(TOP)\include\$(PANGO)
	GTK2_LIBS = $(TOP)\lib\gtk-win32-$(GTK2_VER).lib $(TOP)\lib\gdk-win32-$(GTK2_VER).lib $(GDK_PIXBUF_LIBS) $(PANGO_LIBS)
	
	INTL_CFLAGS = -I $(TOP)\include
	INTL_LIBS = $(TOP)\lib\libintl.lib 

	LIBART_CFLAGS = -FI$(TOP)\include\libart_lgpl\art_config.h
	LIBART_LIBS = $(TOP)\lib\libart_lgpl.lib

	LIBICONV_CFLAGS = -I $(TOP)\include
	LIBICONV_LIBS = $(LIBICONV)\lib\iconv.lib

	LIBXML2_CFLAGS = -I $(TOP)\include\$(LIBXML2)
	LIBXML2_LIBS = $(TOP)\lib\libxml$(LIBXML_VER).lib

	PANGO_CFLAGS = -I $(TOP)\include\$(PANGO)
	PANGO_LIBS = $(TOP)\lib\pango-$(PANGO_VER).lib
	PANGOWIN32_LIBS = $(PANGO_LIBS) $(TOP)\lib\pangowin32-$(PANGO_VER).lib
	
	PNG_CFLAGS = -I $(TOP)\include\$(PNG) $(ZLIB_CFLAGS)
	PNG_LIBS = $(TOP)\lib\libpng.lib $(ZLIB_LIBS)
	
	ZLIB_CFLAGS = -I $(TOP)\include\$(ZLIB)
	ZLIB_LIBS = $(TOP)\lib\libz.lib


2.3 edit .\glib\build\win32\module.defs

	update:
	
	LIBXML_VER = 2


2.4  setup environment variables:

	add '{$TOP}\lib\' to LIB environment variable  
	
	add '{$TOP}\include\' to INCLUDE environment variable 
	
	add '{$TOP}\bin' to PATH environment variable 

	note: replace {$TOP} with the full path location of $(TOP)

		  also, these were the only environment variable changes
		  I needed to make, since I had installed MSVC 6.0 with 
		  it automatically setting its critical environment variables.
		  
		  here is how my 'include' and 'lib' environment variables are set:
		  		   
		  include=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\atl\include;
		          C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\mfc\include;
		          C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\include;
		          f:\dia-build-area\include\
		  
		  lib=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\mfc\lib;
		  	  C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\lib;
		  	  f:\dia-build-area\lib\
