Thanks Georg for the fast reply! This info helps a lot... I'll be sure to post any progress - and using the right gephex-dev email list! :) .. hopefully by this weekend .... my windows system is not with me to test right now..
<br><br>here is a link to where I'll be posting my work for in the future - <a href="http://code.google.com/p/youstudio/">http://code.google.com/p/youstudio/</a><br><br>gracias!<br>sergio <br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">

> but<br>> still have had errors<br><br>As the cited section of the gephex book says, that section only applies<br>to gephex versions up to 0.4.3. For 0.4.4, there is this wiki page [1].<br><br>> I think I read somewhere that George said the build system for Win32 was
<br>> broken...<br>><br>> ... can anyone provide a .rar or .zip with all the libraries and dlls<br>> needed... (or where do we download the right QT 4.x file and other<br>> requirements).... to build the new
4.4 ? (mucho please ?)<br>><br>><br>> <a href="http://code.google.com/p/binarymillenium/downloads/list">http://code.google.com/p/binarymillenium/downloads/list</a> - This has<br>> helped but I can't succesfully build the all of gephex ... gui engine
<br>> ect...<br>><br>> It would be awesome to have a wiki/page step by step instruction for<br>> using the new build system... for the 4.4 release.... Maybe a list of<br>> steps for building using MinGW (thats just for ffmpeg right?) ... is
<br>> there a link to download a free ms visual studio 6 command line<br>> interpreter anywhere) ...?<br><br>Some remarks.<br><br>1) The gepehx build system on windows is a mess.<br> See this thread [2] for details.
<br><br>2) AFAIK there is no free vs6 compiler. There is only a free vs7 and<br> maybe a free vs8 compiler.<br><br>3) Because we are using Qt 4.x, the gephex GUI _has_ to be built using<br> mingw, unless you have a professional license for Qt. Reason: the
<br> free Qt license ships with mingw support only.<br><br>4) As described in [2], not all modules can currently be built using<br> mingw<br><br><br>If you still want to build gephex on windows,<br>I would suggest you try the following approach:
<br><br> A) build gephex-engine and gephex-gui using mingw<br> (you need to install qt 4.x from trolltech and set the<br> QTDIR variable before calling configure)<br><br> B) either use vs6/vs7 to build the types and modules or
<br> use the pre-built dlls from the gephex-0.4.4 windows binary [3]<br><br> C) create a gephex folder containing the directories and<br> files just like the binary release [3]<br><br>If you have problems with anything (quite likely!), don't hesitate
<br>to ask (please don't ask on the frei0r mailinglist, though).<br><br>> You can probably tell I'm not a very skilled programmer but I been<br>> trying to catch up and learn cause I really love Gephex and I think it
<br>> has a great potential for the future.. I really like the new 4.4 GUI<br>> ... being able to customize and control every window is very usefull +<br>> the new midi modules are a great help.)<br>><br>> sorry for all the questions ... But I really hope I figure this
<br>> programing thing all out cause I really want to use gephex for a school<br>> project for my programing class this semester... I have setup a<br>> google.code page to share any additions I come up with... (I such a
<br>> newbie i don't know hot to use arch yet) and am planning on using<br>> youtube to setup videos of my progress as well as hoping to have<br>> documented tuturiols of new ideas/code and cool gephex stuff for all
<br>> users to benefit from...<br>><br>> well any help<br>> would be awesome... There will be a link to theYoutube group @<br>> <a href="http://www.YouStudiO.org">www.YouStudiO.org</a> <<a href="http://www.YouStudiO.org">
http://www.YouStudiO.org</a>> eventually...<br>><br>> Alright well Gracias to all of you all (Goerge, Martin , Philip, Binary<br>> Millenium, Paris, Pierre, Marc, Sven, Andreas, Michael, Axel + all the<br>> others) for the creation of this very fun cool product
<br><br>Thanks :)<br>Glad to hear you like gephex. I think it's great that you want to<br>contribute. And I must apologize that the learning curve for the<br>gephex build system on windows is so unnecessarily steep :/
