I would like to bring this up again. I can absolutely comprehend the arguing of windows or mac users to get rid of glib. I would accept a patch that makes fluidsynth get rid of glib and support Posix OSs and Windows. However my personal preferred solution would be to go with C11. Stroustrup has fortunately given us such a modern tool and the only reason not to use it is because stupid VisualStudio doesnt support it. However VS supports LLVM, so it should still be possible to build C11 programs via clang, not sure how expensive it is to get that working though.
Any thoughts on C11? Tom 2016-06-30 22:02 GMT+02:00 Ryan Gonzalez <rym...@gmail.com>: > Great news! I finally got VirtualBox and Windows working again!
