[Gtk-sharp-list] rsvg sharp on windows

Gerhard,

I just had the same requirement/issue several months before.

First of all I agreed on that the rsvg2-sharp.dll shall be included in
the gtk-sharp windows installer.

Since the native lib is already there, (on my Windows it's named
librsvg-2-2.dll), I used the the following solution:
a) if using mono on Windows, then just copy rsvg2-sharp.dll, and
rsvg2-sharp.dll.config from Linux to Windows, then rewrite the .config
to:
<configuration>
  <dllmap dll="rsvg-2" target="librsvg-2-2.dll"/>
</configuration>

b) if using .Net on Windows, then modify the GAPI generated code and
build it again, the modification includes:
    1) change all [DllImport("rsvg-2")] to [DllImport("librsvg-2-2.dll")]
    2) call gapi-cdecl-insert (see "Win32 binding issues" in this
page: http://www.mono-project.com/GAPI)
Then the compiled dll shall work on Windows .Net (I'm not 100% sure
since I already lost the related files). BTW, the (generated) code
base of rsvg2-sharp's is really small and straight-forward.

BTW, is your shogi game open source? Any URL of it?
