[HELP] Gtk-rs + Windows 10

[zvladimir]

Hello!

I try to use gtk-rs on Windows 10 system but have some trouble.

First - I need to install gtk and follow instructions https://gtk-rs.org/gtk4-rs/stable/latest/book/installation_windows.html

1. install msys2
2. pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gtk4 mingw-w64-x86_64-pkgconf mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc
3. updated environment vars

C:\msys64\mingw64\include
C:\msys64\mingw64\bin
C:\msys64\mingw64\lib

rustup toolchain install stable-gnu
rustup default stable-gnu

Second - I try gtk example
cargo run --bin basics
and get access error

and I install pkg-config-lite-0.28-1 in dir C:\pkg-config-lite-0.28-1\bin
and the error is repeated.

What am I doing wrong?
What are the correct instructions for installing gtk-rs?

This says "Access denied".

You'll have to set up everything so that running pkg-config --libs glib-2.0 (for example) runs successfully. As part of that you have to actually install GLib and the other C libraries and make sure that pkg-config can find their .pc files.

I set up pkg-config and now pkg-config --libs glib-2.0 show -LC:/msys64/mingw64/lib -lglib-2.0 -lintl

But the cargo run --bin basics still does not work and the error is repeated
