Guile under win32

Guile under win32

[Chris Frost]

I'd like to use guile for in a win32 program: I found a distribution
of guile 1.4, but upon entering gh_enter() I get an error message saying
it was unable to find the file "ice-9/boot-9.scm"; however, the ice-9 directory
is in the directory of the program being ran so it should find this file.
I realize this seems more like a msvc++ question, but does anyone have
any suggestions that might stem from possible-guile-issues?

I obtained guile (and libregex.dll) for win32 from here fwiw:
http://www.textsure.net/~ela/download/

tia!

Fwiw I also looked in the guile list archive. I did find the same question
(posted in 1997), but no answers at the time.

thanks again,

Do you have your GUILE_LOAD_PATH environment variable set?

It was not, thanks!

Now that I have guile going under win32, I'd like to use it with Microsoft's
MFCs. I found the thread on this list from 1998 which seemed to basically
say it wasn't doable, is this still the case?

thanks again,

Not sure why it would not be doable.  Maybe because, in the past, libguile
had to be initialized right at program startup, (scm_boot_guile).  That's
not the case as of 1.5.??.  Look at scm_init_guile.  Also, read the section
on Guile Initialization Functions at http://www.lilypond.org/wiki/?Guile.
