Hi Klaus,
hopefully, once you succeed, you can help us getting the X2Go Plugin
for windows into our download area.

Hello,
I compiled the npx2goplugin.dll plugin and put it in the plugins directory of a firefox portable or chrome portable on Windows 7 or Windows XP.
In the list of installed plugins the plugin is listed and activated in both browsers but when I call the webserver address of the x2go Site, Chrome says the plugin cannot be loaded and Firefox stays at a white window. The server side is working fine because a linux client with a precompiled x2goclient-plugin can connect without any problems.
I installed the prerequisites as listed in http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:development:build-howto-mswin:x2goclient to compile the plugin.
- Fetched the latest git version 4.0.3.0
- Adapted x2goclient\x2goclient.rc because of an compile error
- Adapted x2goclient\qtbrowserplugin-2.4_1-opensource\src\qtbrowserplugin_p.h because of an compile error
- run config_win_plugin.bat and build_win_plugin.bat
The plugin npx2goplugin.dll is created with a size of 12752 KB.
When I try to run this plugin on the same host where the build environment is installed, the plugin is loaded with an error "X-Server cannot be started", but I think this is a configuration error but at least it gets loaded. Does this mean, that some (Qt?) libraries are missing for running the plugin on hosts with no Qt build environment? Did I miss something?
Has anyone successful compiled and is using the x2goplugin for windows?
The X2Go Plugin was a customer project and the builds of Windows
versions of the plugin has been discontinued recently.
The plugin was developed before the change-over rom Xming to VcXsrv
IIRC. So, it may well be that not all required binaries/dlls/etc. are
stuffed into the npx2goplugin.dll.
You need to ship VcXsrv in that container, as well (I know this
doesn't sound funny, having an XServer shipped as a mozilla plugin,
but that how things work in X2Go on Windows).
