Hi ,

I am trying to build openjk on my windows 7 machine and facing problem as
below :-

checking for X11/extensions/shape.h... no
configure: error: Could not find freetype! You need to build a 64-bit
version of
 freetype.
This is not readily available.
You can find source code and build instructions on
http://www.freetype.org/
If you put the resulting build in "C:\Program Files\GnuWin32", it will be
found
automatically.
configure exiting with result code 1

Even though I have build freetype using steps as below :-

Download FreeType from http://www.freetype.org/download.html, extract it to
c:\OpenJDK\freetype-2.4.7 and double click on
c:\OpenJDK\freetype-2.4.7\builds\win32\vc2010\freetype.vcxproj to open the
FreeType project in "VisualC++ Express 2010".

>From the projects properties do the following:

   - Configuration Manager -> Active Solution Manager -> Type or select the
   new Platform -> x64
   - Configuration -> Release Multithreaded
   - Platform -> x64
   - Output Directory -> rename ".\..\..\..\objs\win32\vc2010\" to
   ".\..\..\..\objs\win64\vc2010\"
   - Intermediate Directory -> rename ".\..\..\..\objs\release_mt\" to
   ".\..\..\..\objs\release_mt_64\"
   - Target Name -> rename to "freetype"
   - Platform Toolset -> Windows7.1SDK

Taking help from this site : -
https://weblogs.java.net/blog/simonis/archive/2011/10/28/yaojowbi-yet-another-openjdk-windows-build-instruction

There may be a problem related to Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .Net as
what I downloaded had some errors so please provide me link for downloading
this .


Thanks and Regards,
Pooja
