[Spice-devel] How to build virt-viewer for windows from a fedora mingw64 cross-compiler environment

[me,apporc]

Dear all,

I have made one working mingw64 cross-compiler environment on my fedora 17.
After download virt-viewer-0.5.4.tar.gz and extract, i run

*mingw64-configure*
*mingw64-make*
*mingw64-make install *
*
*
in the src directory. And  then i made the windows installer with

*makensis data/virt-viewer.nsis*

Everything seemed ok except that mingw64-make reported this warning:

/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/include/glib-2.0/glib/gutils.h:123:1:
warning: inlining failed in call to '_g_win32_get_system_data_dirs': call
is unlikely and code size would grow [-Winline]

and makensis reported this error:

File:
"${DESTDIR}/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/bin/windows-cmdline-wrapper.exe"
-> no files found.

I don't know whether it matters for the first, for the second, i substitute
${DESTDIR} to an empty string, then the compilation passed .


The problem is here:
When i installed the virt-viewer installer on one windows pc and ran the
remote viewer, it reported errors as a lack
of libexpat-1.dll and many other dlls. For this i thought may be the
virt-viewer.nsis file was wrong, so i added all the dll files
from /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/bin. And yeah, this time the
remote-viewer.exe fired up, but it refused to connect to URLs like
"spice://x.x.x.x:xx" , it reported "Unknown graphic type for the guest
spice://x.x.x.x:xx".

I don't know whether i did something wrong, and can not find any howtos or
instructions.
Could anyone give me a hand? Thanks. And if you have succeeded to build one
windows client for spice with usb support, I will be glad that you can send
it to me:) i need it now.



Regards

apporc
