Libsigc++ compiles and runs under win32 (windows 95 and NT)
|
||
|
|
with the cygwin package available from Cygnus Solutions.
|
||
|
|
(http://sourceware.cygnus.com), Borland Builder 6 or Visual C++ 5.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Notes for egcs:
|
||
|
|
- A simlink is required from /bin/sh to $(CGYWIN_HOME)/bin/sh
|
||
|
|
for configure to run.
|
||
|
|
- A bug in libtool results in compiling the dll stubs with the
|
||
|
|
wrong compiler which results in a minor error. To fix
|
||
|
|
this, a repaired version of ltdll.c is distributed.
|
||
|
|
- The dll fails to compile with libtool >1.2d as a result of
|
||
|
|
a bug in libtool. A bug report of this is outstanding.
|
||
|
|
(use static libraries til fixed)

Notes for Microsoft Visual C++:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Microsoft Visual C++ does not provide partial specialization of
|
||
|
|
classes at this time which is a requirement for the regular
|
||
|
|
version of the library. Also it requires the format of the
|
||
|
|
package to be different then that of the standard GNU package.
|
||
|
|
A special distribution is therefore required.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Two project files for building the library and its tests
|
||
|
|
are located under the win32 directory. libsigc.dsp builds the
|
||
|
|
shared dll for the library. wintest.dsp builds a simple
|
||
|
|
test that runs through all the libraries features.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Unlike other platforms, VC++ does not support default
|
||
|
|
template arguments properly. Thus the marshaller for
|
||
|
|
signals (normally hidden) must be explicitly specified.
|
||
|
|
The files distributed with .cc extension require modification.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(To compile from CVS which uses native Unix .cc extensions
|
||
|
|
you can use the instructions found on
|
||
|
|
http://depc14.gsi.de/hades/msdev-cc-ending.htm)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Exporting another library using libsigc++ can be
|
||
|
|
fun because VC++ requires every symbol to appear
|
||
|
|
in the DLL that it uses. This is a well known problem and
|
||
|
|
is documented in the Microsoft Knowledge Base. The
|
||
|
|
instructions for exporting libsigc++ are basically the
|
||
|
|
same as those of STL class in Article #Q168958.
