[scribus-dev] Windows 7 Build - SVN 20937 on DropBox

[John L. Poole]

Here are my builds of Scribus for Windows 7 (MS v120) 32 and 64 bit 
using MS Visual Studio Express 2013, Subversion Revision 20937:

My Windows workstation is an i7 980 @ 3.33GHz with 24 GB of RAM running 
on a 64 bit version of Windows 7.  It takes 3-5 minutes to build a 
version, I'll have to accurately time it next time.

I'll be documenting, in detail, on the wiki how building on Windows for 
Windows 7 is done as soon as I can set up a virgin build of Windows 7 so 
I can document everything that is added to accomplish this task.  I 
integrated Perl into my workbench and tool chain, it can elegantly 
accomplish the complex file shuffling and variable substitution that 
plagues the Windows build using Microsoft Visual Studio.

Eventually, I'd like to use CMAKE in Linux with a cross-compiler 
(win-builds project) to build Windows versions thereby jettisoning the 
MS Tools and keeping life simple in one build environment -- if only I 
had more time.
