Thus you can always install full MinGW distribution including gettext tools. However, if you a want minimalistic runtime version that allows you to extract messages and create catalogs you need to download several packages manually.</p> <p>In order to install Gettext via MinGW distributing you need to download, a GCC's runtime, iconv library and gettext itself.</p> <p>So visit a <a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/">downloads page</a> of MinGW project and download following files (chose the latest versions of each package):</p> <ul> <li>From: <code>MinGW/BaseSystem/GCC/Version4/gcc-xxx/</code> <br/> File: <code>libgcc-xxx-mingw32-dll-1.tar.lzma</code> </li> <li>From <code>MinGW/Gettext/gettext-yyy/</code> <br/> Files: <code>gettext-yyy-mingw32-dev.tar.lzma</code>, <code>libgettextpo-yyy-mingw32-dll-0.tar.lzma</code>, <code>libintl-yyy-mingw32-dll-8.tar.lzma</code> </li> <li>From <code>MinGW/libiconv/libiconv-zzz/</code> <br/> Files: <code>libiconv-zzz-mingw32-dll-2.tar.lzma</code>, <code>libcharset-zzz-mingw32-dll-1.tar.lzma</code> </li> </ul> <p>For example, at June 23, 2011 it was:</p> <ul> <li>GNU Runtime: <code>libgcc-4.5.2-1-mingw32-dll-1.tar.lzma</code> </li> <li><code>iconv:</code> <code>libiconv-1.13.1-1-mingw32-dll-2.tar.lzma</code> and <code>libcharset-1.13.1-1-mingw32-dll-1.tar.lzma</code> </li> <li><code>gettext:</code> <code>libintl-0.17-1-mingw32-dll-8.tar.lzma</code>, <code>libgettextpo-0.17-1-mingw32-dll-0.tar.lzma</code> and <code>gettext-0.17-1-mingw32-dev.tar.lzma</code>.</li> </ul> <p>After you download the packages, extract all the files to the same directory using tools like <code>7zip</code> and you'll get all the executables and <code>dll's</code> you need under <code>bin</code> subdirectory.</p> <dl class="note"><dt><b>Note:</b></dt><dd>the version on MinGW site is slightly outdated (0.17.1) while gettext provides currently 0.18.1.</dd></dl> <h2><a class="anchor" id="gettext_for_windows_build"></a> Building latest version on your own.</h2> <p>You can build your own version of GNU Gettext using MinGW environment, you'll need to have up-to-date gcc compiler and the shell, you'll need to install iconv first and then build a gettext with it.</p> <p>Basic and simplest way would be to open a MinGW shell</p> <p>Build <code>iconv:</code> </p> <div class="fragment"><pre class="fragment">cd libiconv-SOMEVERSION ./configure --prefix=c:/mygettext --disable-shared make make install cd .. cd <a class="code" href="group__message.html#ga1121f0001ff0f3b9455390b6412c6a2c">gettext</a>-SOMEVERSION ./configure --prefix=c:/mygettext --disable-shared --with-libiconv-prefix=c:/mygettext make make install </pre></div><p>And now you have in <code>c:\mygettext\bin</code> all appropriate executable files to use.</p> <h2><a class="anchor" id="gettext_for_windows_cygwin"></a> Using Cygwin</h2> <p>If you already have Cygwin - just use gettext tools provided with it. </p> </div></div><!-- contents --> </div> <div id="nav-path" class="navpath"> <ul> <li class="navelem"><a class="el" href="index.html">Boost.Locale</a> </li> <li class="navelem"><a class="el" href="appendix.html">Appendix</a> </li> <li class="footer"> &copy; Copyright 2009-2012 Artyom Beilis, Distributed under the <a href="http://www.boost.org/LICENSE_1_0.txt">Boost Software License</a>, Version 1.0. </li> </ul> </div> </body> </html>
