gl/win32 allow not building the gl plugins/libraries (1.61 KB, patch)

Description Kyle 2014-03-27 01:28:54 UTC 
When cross compiling the GStreamer bad plugins on Linux for Windows with Cerbero I get the following error:
gstglcontext_wgl.c:32:23: fatal error: GL/wglext.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make[5]: *** [libgstgl_win32_la-gstglcontext_wgl.lo] Error 1

This shows the available headers for the toolchain:
~/cerbero/mingw/w32/i686-w64-mingw32/include/GL$ ls
glaux.h  glext.h  gl.h  glu.h

I would be happy to provide any further information.
Comment 1 Matthew Waters (ystreet00) 2014-03-27 11:31:16 UTC 
a) download and install the wglext.h header from https://www.opengl.org/registry/api/GL/wglext.h or google opengl headers.
b) don't build gl (pass --disable-wgl or --disable-opengl or --disable-win32 to configure.  They all should work)
c) fix configure.ac to detect this.

Actually, option b won't work on windows :)

Anyway, does this fix it for you?
