Re: [platform-swt-dev] Problem with Building SWT using MSVC 6 on XP
|
I have figured the problem out! Its been sometime I have been out of
MSVC world.
Since then quite a lot of sinister stuff seems to have happened to
Microsoft's tool
chain. However, there is no proper documentation for a beginer to build the
source and get ready. Anyways, for any one wanting to build ONLY SWT and
has
Microsoft Visual Studio 6, Windows XP /2000 download Microsoft Platform
SDK for Windows 2003 SP1 into a directory that does't contain spaces ( Ugh!,
morons still did't fix this space problem ) and simply add the include
path and
library path of this SDK at appropriate place in make_win32.mak file.
And you
are ready.
Thanks,
Kiran Kumar

Hello All,
I am just trying to make a foray into the beautiful world of SWT and I am in need of help.
Have just downloaded the source and trying to make the JNI build ( the dll ).
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.1-200506271435/download.php?dropFile=swt-3.1-win32-win32-x86.zip
I am using the batch file provided with the source distribution to build. The compiler complains
that it cannot find the following header files :
usp10.h
uxtheme.h
Indeed, I dont see them provided along with my MSVC 6 distribution. Where do I find these files.
On googling for sometime , I understood that these files are used in the context of Windows XP
UI and downloaded Visual Studio service pack 6 in expectation MS might have distirubuted!
However , they are not to be found.
I did my bit of trying unsuccessfully even with MingW.
How do you guys actually get to build SWT?
Thanks,
Kiran Kumar
