Hopefully someone will correct me if wrong. To work with autotools under windows, you need MSYS. I have never had any luck building anything with MSYS, even after googling and reading the instructions. It seems the default plugins that ship with Geany are built when running ming32-make -f makefile.w32.

I'd like to thank you Nick for the information on building the plugins using waf. It may be time to add waf to my server's tools so that it can compile the plug ins.

Hoping I added something useful

Ok, it's working with waf. I had to deal with files copying from geany's build to some direcories in my PATH and other stuff but it works great.

Thanks a lot !

I think Enrico uses Waf - this is probably easiest but you will need to
install Python. The link below is for Geany but it's the same procedure:

http://www.geany.org/manual/index.html#waf-based-build-system

It might be possible to use the autotools build system but you will
probably have to install tons of autotools stuff and also I don't know
of anyone who's done this, so there could be issues.

Regards,
Nick
