Are you following https://github.com/conformal/gotk3/wiki/Installing-on-Windows?

[5k3105]

Yes. The last step at 'Test pkg-config' works correctly.

[5k3105]

Here's what I have:

[jrick]

This looks like it could be an error in mingw32 (or the amd64 port), but I have never run into it before. size_t should be defined by stddef.h but it appears that stddef.h is including crtdefs.h, which references the size_t type, but size_t doesn't exist yet.

Are you able to try with a more recent mingw-w64?

[5k3105]

Is there more recent? This is x64-4.8.1-posix-seh-rev5.

Attempting to use TDM-GCC-64 I get the same thing:

[jrick]

I thought there would be a GCC 4.9-based mingw-w64 but it appears to not be out yet. It does look like they released 4.8.2, however.

[jrick]

Also, what version of Go are you using?

[5k3105]

I don't see 4.8.2.

λ go version
go version go1.3 windows/386

[jrick]

You cannot use windows/386 Go with the amd64 mingw32 port and amd64 Fedora packages. Install the amd64 Go instead.

Also, you should update to Go 1.3.1. Go 1.3 shipped with a broken cgo and doesn't always successfully build gotk3. 1.3.2 was released which fixes a security issue in the tls package, but the release is also broken on Windows, so use 1.3.1 for now and update to 1.3.3 when it's out in a few more days.

[5k3105]

Aha! Thanks for catching that. I'll let you know how it goes.

[jrick]

The official Go binary expects its GOROOT to be C:\Go. You will need to set an alternative GOROOT if you put it in a different location (like C:\Go\64), or it won't be able to find the stdlib packages and other Go tools.

[5k3105]

[jrick]

Be sure to use the right build tag options (-tags gtk_3_10) or it will default to a 3.12 build. Alternatively, you could try newer Fedora packages if they include GTK 3.12.

[5k3105]

That worked. However, when I build an example, the executable complains that it can't find libgcc_s_seh-1.dll.

libgcc_s_seh-1.dll is in the mingw64 folder though and on the env var 'path'.

[5k3105]

Ok, it's working when I make a copy and rename libgcc_s_seh_64-1.dll to libgcc_s_seh-1.dll
