Windows/VC++ port

[Andrew]

I am trying to assemble all this by Microsoft VC++ 2005. So far I have
ported /core library as it will not compile out of box by MSVC. (In
some places it is more restrictive than GCC).

I have added also Windows specific port of SkMMapStream class.

Yet I think it make sense to add SkCompilerConfig.h file and move
there things like:

#if !defined(SK_RESTRICT)
#if defined(__GNUG__)
#define SK_RESTRICT __restrict__
#else
#define SK_RESTRICT
#endif
#endif

from SkPreConfig.h

How and where to post patch file(s)?

Thanks for working on a windows port.

I am planning to use
http://code.google.com/p/rietveld/wiki/CodeReviewHelp to handle
code-reviews and patches. Are you familiar with this system?

Mike, are you still planning or is it already available for
publishing?

In any case here is the patch:
http://terrainformatica.com/temp/skia-vc2005.patch
It adds also /vc/ folder to tree. It will contain /vc/sampleapp (but
not yet).
So far /vc/ contins core, images, utils and views .vcproj files.

Cheers,

Andrew Fedoniouk.

Up and running. If you could submit your patch via that link, I'll
take a look right away.

thanks,

Does anyone in the group have any insight into building for windows?

I have gotten Skia building and running under Windows. I found that I
had to make a few changes to the source code, mainly (it appears) to
enable building of certain objects that are not needed in Chromium, so
perhaps these are unnecessary.

I created a Visual Studio solution to drive the build based on the
'gyp' commands used in the Chromium project.

I found that I had to use several Chromium-specific files
(platform_canvas.cc, platform_canvas_win.cc, etc.) to get a fully
functional implementation.

What is the intended mechanism for building Skia under Windows? Will
you be using gyp or perhaps CMake? Or do you intend to just drop a
Visual Studio solution into the project and be done with it?

Thanks,

-Brent

I put together a CMake build system for the major components (core,
images, opts, ports) of skia earlier today, and it compiles fine under
MSVC10 (with some minor exceptions). However, there are quite a number
of unexplained crashes, presumably because my build is missing
something essential. In particular, the entire text rendering facility
is not operable.

Would it be possible to acquire a copy of your visual studio solution
as a baseline to check against to get my CMake project files working?
