FLTK 1.3 and later is officially supported on Windows

Further notes about Microsoft IDE project files (July 2010):
|
||||
------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
Starting with Visual C++ 2008 Express, Microsoft offer a free IDE and
|
||||
compiler that can be used to build FLTK. The newest version is
|
||||
Visual C++ 2010 Express. Both versions can be used, but see below for
|
||||
instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
The preferred and best maintained project files are those in the
|
||||
directory ide/VisualC6. Although the FLTK team currently doesn't
|
||||
have these old MS IDE versions available, this project (generated by
|
||||
FLTK's fluid software) ought to be up-to-date. This is not always
|
||||
true, however, if there are changes that affect the project, but we
|
||||
try to keep it always up-to-date.
|
||||
|
||||
The ide/VisualC6 project files can be used with Visual C++ 2008 Express
|
||||
by opening the fltk.dsw file and confirming to convert the project to
|
||||
the new format.
|
||||
|
||||
Unfortunately the ide/VisualC6 project files can't be converted with
|
||||
Visual C++ 2010 Express (at least not as easily - maybe there's a tool).
|
||||
We will update this if we find a way...
|
||||
|
||||
The ide/vc2005 project files can be used with Visual C++ 2010 Express
|
||||
by opening the fltk.sln file and confirming to convert the project to
|
||||
the new format. This project is currently maintained manually and may
|
||||
be less up-to-date and fail to build.
|
||||
It is known to work with subversion release 7667 (July 04, 2010).
|
||||
|
||||
Please note that FLTK 1.3 is work in progress. The subversion and
|
||||
snapshot files are not always guaranteed to work flawlessly.
|
||||
|
||||
You may also have success by generating your own project files with
|
||||
CMake (see files README.CMake* in the top level directory), but
|
||||
that's currently not actively maintained.
