Hallo,
is there a possibility to compile GTK Applications in CYGWIN in such a way,
that you can start them from the Windows Desktop, instead just from the CYGWIN
Bash ?
Any program compiled with Cygwin can be invoked directly outside of bash.
Some may give better results than others, depending on how you set up your
Windows path, whether it's a console app or not, etc. I'm not a Cygwin GTK
expert but I believe if you compile a GTK app using the GTK package
distributed with Cygwin, you will require X, which means you'll need to be
running the X server before you can successfully start the program.
How could such a program automatically find all required dll's ?
By looking in the PATH.
--------------------
Is there a DEFINE Available for compilations by cygwin, that is actually beeing
compiled with CYGWIN, instead of normal Unix eg a
WINDOWS=1 variable ?
Look for telltale defines returned by typing "gcc -v".
