Support for win32

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I understand that there is no support for win32 versions.

I want to know..
1) Is it impossible or
2) Does it need work to get it on win32.
   If so, where do I start. Any suggestions would help.

I've added the necessary files for 32-bit Windows and Linux support in revision 
15. It should work with the instructions on the BranchesAndBuilding wiki page 
but I haven't tried it myself. Let me know if you run into any problems.

I build the whole thing in win32 along jdk6 and it seems to work very well, 
except the cursor is missing on editable fields. But it's very likely 
unrelated, I'll investigate further.

I could run jcef on win32, by following instructions on the wiki, on a fresh 
win32 system.

thank you.

But, BranchesAndBuilding page says, "Building from source code is currently 
only supported on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X for 64-bit Oracle 7 Java targets."
So, how to build from the revision 15 source for 32-bit targets.

I started following instructions on BranchesAndBuilding page.

I successfully completed all instructions up to last point of Manual 
Downloading.
That is "7. Generate the build project files from the GYP configuration."

But after that, in the first step of "Manual Building".
When opening "jcef.sln" in Visual Studio 2010 Express and building it.
I am getting following error trace:

In starting:
1>------ Build started: Project: jcef_helper, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------
1>LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'atlthunk.lib'

In end:
2>LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'atlthunk.lib'
========== Build: 0 succeeded, 2 failed, 1 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

Also, I don't know, where to set the environment variable GYP_MSVS_VERSION.
I have installed Visual Studio 2010 Express.

Thanks.

I am also not able to figure out where and how to set variables for following 
while following instructions on BranchesAndBuilding page: 

"Set up the required gyp environment variables."

Also, is there some guide on this step:
1. Build the JCEF native code (dynamic library and helper executable).

Windows - Open the Visual Studio solution file (jcef.sln) and build. If 
building the "win64" target make sure to set the "Active solution platform" to 
"x64" under Configuration Manager.

Thanks

how to build this. I am using visual studio 2010 express

I found out how to fix this error. 

Right click on your project.
Go to properties.
Under Linker -> Input, tab on left, look at "Additional Dependencies"
Remove atlthunk.lib from the "Additional Dependencies" in all the projects for 
Release and Debug builds.
Then I can build.

So why is it there in the first place? That's the bug.
