Building without Visual Studio #56

Closed tsudoko closed 5 years ago

tsudoko commented 5 years ago

It would be nice if Textractor was buildable with, say, mingw+gcc instead of Visual Studio, so that you wouldn't need Windows to build it. I remember ITHVNR had a lot of msvc-specific code, so I'm not really expecting this to be done anytime soon, just something to keep in mind if you ever wanted to do some large-scale refactoring of the whole codebase.

You have to do some horrific things to get Structured Exception Handling to work with gcc. So yeah, this isn't happening.
