Added support for building on Windows with Clang MSVC target and libobjc2. This requires using a standard (non-MinGW) Clang build that e.g. comes with Visual Studio or is available as pre-built binary from the LLVM website, and requires passing a host to configure like
--host=x86_64-pc-windows
.The build is best done in an MSYS2 shell that does not have any additional *-devel packages installed that might get picked up by configure. Alternatively
--disable-xxx
flags can be used to prevent these dependencies to be picked up.Annotates all ObjC class interfaces with
GS_EXPORT_CLASS
for DLL export/import declarations, and adds missingGS_DECLARE
annotations in externs.m, in order for these symbols to be correctly exported in the DLL.I’ll send more info on the mailing list.
Requires gnustep/tools-make#14.
