I might be overlooking something, but unfortunately I can't find any sources on the page you suggested. Is it possible they're only visible for certain users?

I might be overlooking something, but unfortunately I can't find any sources on the page you suggested. Is it possible they're only visible for certain users? <snip> You're right! It's not there. I also signed in with my Berlios account and that did not reveal it. I also looked in http://x2go.obviously-nice.de/windows/ but only saw the setup.exe. I don't recall where I downloaded the Windows source.
Ah! As I think about it, it is probably all the same source - the beauty of Qt. There are sections within the code for handling Windows specific bits. Thus, I believe you will want: http://x2go.obviously-nice.de/deb/pool-lenny/x2goclient/x2goclient_3.01-4.ta... if you want the source for the latest available Windows client - John
Replying to this thread since i'm now rebuilding the client from source..

There's a line in README.WINDOWS that says:
"to build x2goclient for Windows you must replace x2goclient.pro with
x2goclient.pro.windows"
but 'x2goclient.pro.windows' is not present
So i've built the client without this file, but now i get all kinds of
errors for missing dll's. Also, the resulting binary x2goclient.exe is
about 11M, in contrary to about 4M from the official installer.
Does anyone know more about this? Perhaps the developers? :)
kind regards
Léon

Could they possibly mean to simply rename the file? - John

Maybe i wasn't too clear. It says i have to rename
x2goclient.pro.windows to x2goclient.pro. Unfortunately there is no
.windows file. So i have downloaded some older sources until i found
one that has the .windows file (it was 3.01-3) and copied it over.
However, now when i run make it shows an error while building:
./debug\printprocess.o:C:\x2go\x2goclient-3.01/printprocess.cpp:185:

Anyone? :)

Hi Léon,
You do not need to rename the x2goclient.pro.windows to x2goclient.pro. The original x2goclient.pro can handle the compiling under windows.
One tricky thing is that, under windows, only the QT SDK of version 2009.04 can be used.
As the issue of missing dlls, you need to rebuild the QT by static configuration, which will take ages. Another options is to just copy QtCore4.dll, QtGui4.dll, QtNetwork.dll and QtSvg4.dll to x2goclient directory.
Or you can cross compile the window client under linux, just look at the post: http://www.ce3c.be/152-cross-compiling-qt-c-for-windows-on-linux/.
Hope it helps
Max

Hi Max,
Thanks a lot for the info. I've installed a virtual especially for
this, so i'll boot it up and give it another go.
kind regards,
Léon
