GTK+ for Windows Runtime Environment Installer: 64-bit
|
|
======================================================
|
|
|
|
This repository is a fork of the [GTK+ for Windows Runtime Environment Installer](http://gtk-win.sourceforge.net) that was originally created
|
|
by Alexander Shaduri.
|
|
My efforts here will focus on creating a **64-bit version** of the runtime that he has been providing so far, using up to date versions of GTK+ and its dependencies.
|
|
|
|
The installers can be found [here](http://lvserver.ugent.be/gtk-win64/).
|
|
|
|
**[Keep in mind though that these packages are experimental. Binary compatibility between versions is not guaranteed!!!.](http://www.gtk.org/download/win64.php)**
|
|
|
|
Both for convencience as well as for increased reliability across installations, it is recommended for developers to compile and link against the GTK+ SDK that I used to create the installers. This SDK can also be obtained at the aforementioned url.
|
|
|
|
The current release (gtk2-runtime-2.24.24-2014-09-28-ts-win64.exe) has been compiled using GCC 4.8.1 (MinGW-w64 installed from TDM-GCC).
|
|
The included GTK+ dependencies were selected according to the flowchart used by [Hexchat](http://hexchat.github.io/gtk-win32/). The source tarballs can be obtained by clicking on the names of the dependencies in the following list:

For all other information regarding how to use the installer, the reader is kindly referred to the [Alexander Shaduri's website](http://gtk-win.sourceforge.net) of the GTK for Windows runtime environment installer. The only difference with the installers found at this website is that mine DO NOT have the `compatdlls` option, but this should present no problems to any user.

Personally I use this installer in my [XMI-MSIM project](http://github.com/xmimsim). You may want to have a look at my Inno Setup ([new](https://github.com/tschoonj/xmimsim/blob/master/nsis/xmimsim.iss)) and NSIS ([old](https://github.com/tschoonj/xmimsim/blob/XMI-MSIM-4.0/nsis/xmimsim-win64.nsi.in)) based installers.
