Following the links from http://www.gtk.org leads me to http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/ which has a link to: http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/ which has standalone installer packages for just the GTK runtime and all its dependencies. In particular, you want: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/gimp-win/gtk%2B-2.8.9-setup-1.zip? download If you compile your program against the headers and development libraries as provided by Tor (the second link) then if the end user installs this runtime, he will be able to run your application. Just be aware, though, that your app must have the gtk runtime's bin directory in the execution path. Most people do this by creating a windows shortcut to the real exe that starts the real exe in the working directory of C:\Program Files\Common files\GTK\2.0\bin (or whatever the path is you installed the runtime to). Alternatively you can get the installer package I just mentioned, install it, and then copy the entire GTK runtime to be relative to your exe and build a big bundle out of the entire thing. It is preferred, I think, to look for GTK in the standard place (de facto standard), C:\Program Files\Common files\GTK\2.0\bin. This is what I personally do, as does the Gimp, and GAIM. This way all gtk apps can share a common runtime. > What I need: > An installation guide of how to install GTK+ on Windows. To recap. Get installer package. start->run "gtk+-2.8.9-setup.exe". For the development libraries I recommend taking all the tarballs that Tor has carefully prepared and uncompressing them into your build environment, whether that be c:\mingw (include/ lib/ share/ etc/) or something else. If you are using the Bloodshed Dev-C++ IDE, you can get packages that integrate with their IDE here (this is only needed by you the developer, not your end users): http://gtk.alkia.org/index.php (there are other people offering similar things) Michael > > Thanx. > > Rgds, > Hemendra Jain. > Software Engineer, TES Group, > Datamatics Limited, > Mumbai- -400096. > Tel: 28291974, Ext: 501 > > Disclaimer: The information contained in this e-mail and attachments if any are privileged and confidential and are intended for the individual(s) or entity(ies) named in this e-mail.
