Subject: Win32/strawberry - updated pack with external libs
Hi, I have prepared a completely new build of SDL related libraries. You can find it here: http://svn.ali.as/cpan/users/kmx/strawberry_packs/lib-SDL-bin_20090831+depend-DLLs.zip It is prepared to be released with October Strawberry release (I cannot guarantee that it will be included, I have just built it, I am not a decision maker). I have used: SDL-1.2.13 SDL_ttf-2.0.9 SDL_net-1.2.7 SDL_mixer-1.2.8 (mp3-via-smpeg, ogg-via-libvorbis+libogg/static_linking) SDL_image-1.2.7 SDL_gfx-2.0.19 libsmpeg-SVN20090831 (latest SVN version) Do not be scary about strange DLL names - we have decided in strawberry that our custom builds will have different DLL names as the official Win32/mingw binaries to avoid collisions if you have both on your computer (we use e.g. SDL_.dll instead of SDL.dll). Unfortunately the build was partly "manual-work" and I have not made it fully automated yet. However I will try to prepare some scripts / patches / makefiles that can be used for easy building on Win32/mingw (=strawberry perl). I would appreciate any feedback from you or other SDL_Perl@Win32 users. The only limit of Win32 is "OpenGL 1.1 only" and "OpenGL Utility Library 1.2 only" - the rest of SDL_Perl should be fully implemented. -- kmx

Do you mind hosting this pack for now? Can you give this patch a try and let me know? http://github.com/kthakore/Alien_SDL/commit/24874b0f73ad606f689f7acfd0264ac619363de1 On Mon Aug 31 06:59:58 2009, KMX wrote: Show quoted text

Well, it is more question on Alias as it is his SVN server :) I can keep the file at its current location for some time, but keep in mind that it is a SVN server not hosting. -- kmx

Ok I will keep it on sdl.perl.org then. Hopefully MST won't shout at me! Also if you are on github would you like to fork Alien::SDL so you can add you windows build scripts? Show quoted text

I am on github; however I am from the "old-school" so SVN is more convenient for me :) Before I try sort out the windows build script I have a question about other SVG_* libraries that are currently missing in Win32 pack - I have noticed some post at sdl-devel asking for: - SDL_sound - SDL_svg - SDL_vnc Should I try to build those for Win32? or any other? I am not using SDL_* so I do not know what parts are crucial. So it would be better if you tell me what is important to have in order to fully support SDL_Perl on Win32. -- kmx

As of right now svg and vnc have no bindings in SDL perl. So they are not critical or high priority. However sound maybe used but not critical. Show quoted text

OK, I will try to do a little bit research around SDL_sound. It would be nice if somebody check whether the functionality compiled into currently available pack really works. -- kmx

I tried it for some reason freetype-6.dll needs to be in c/bin and c/lib ? Don't know why. Show quoted text
