COMPILING NEWTREE WITH MINGW (http://www.mingw.org)
These are MINGW compile instructions for users without cygwin or self-hosting
mingw. If you've cygwin or self-hosting mingw, you can soon use standard
./configure process. You can also build WIN32 binaries under Linux using
cross-compiling mingw.
1) Get and install fully working MINGW system. See mingw home page
for closer details. Make sure your MINGW\BIN directory is in your PATH.
(if you want easy way in, get http://www.libsdl.org/Xmingw32/mingw32.zip and extract it)
2) Get and install LATEST WIN32API for mingw
(http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435)
Latest one at the time of the writing is
http://download.sourceforge.net/mingw/w32api-0.4-20001122.tar.gz
3) Get and install ZLIB
You can either download ZLIB source code from http://www.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/zlib/
and compile it or
4) If you want to compile SDL/SGL targets, you also need to get SDL
Source Code and Win32 Binary Runtime (http://www.libsdl.org.)
Extract the runtime (sdl.dll) into the lib subdirectory of the SDL
Source Code. If you don't know what SDL means, you don't need this.
Look libsdl page for closer details how to get mingw working with sdl.
5) Go to source directory and check paths in makefile.mgw and change them to suit your system.
Then just type:
make -fmakefile.mgw
And hope for best. You will see lot of "warnings" but they're ok as long
as you manage to get working .EXE files.
