GTK+ for Windows Runtime Environment Installer :: Main / Home & News GTK+ for Windows Runtime Environment Installer Main / Home & News GTK+ for Windows Runtime Environment Installer This installer contains the GTK+ dlls with everything they depend on. Theme and theme-engine packages can also be found here, along with an utility to change GTK+ preferences. You may need this installer if you happen to run a GTK+-based application and need GTK+ runtime environment to run it. Note that this installer does not include any development libraries or headers. If you want to develop/compile GTK+ applications for Win32, download the dev packages from Tor Lillqvist's pages (see the Links section). For those of you wondering what GTK+ is, visit its home page at www.gtk.org . GTK+ Preference Tool (aka "gtk2_prefs" or "GTK2 Theme Selector") is also hosted here and included into the installers. You found this page at gtk-win.sourceforge.net . Want to know more? Check the Details page and other links to the left. News 2017-04-24 This software is not maintained anymore. Users are advised to bundle GTK+ with their software for maximum ABI compatibility. For more information visit GTK+ for Windows Download page. 2014-10-04 A fork of the installer for 64-bit Windows (plus SDK that goes along with it) has been created by Tom Schoonjans. See github page for more information. 2013-12-21 The Code area now contains the latest code for the GTK+ Preference Tool and the GTK+ Installer. 2012-10-10 A new version GTK+ Runtime installer is out (see the Downloads section). This version is based on GTK+ 2.24.10. 2011-12-03 A new version GTK+ Runtime installer is out (see the Downloads section). This version is based on GTK+ 2.24.8. 2010-10-21 A new version GTK+ Runtime installer is out (see the Downloads section). This version is based on GTK+ 2.22.0-2, which contains some bug fixes. 2010-10-01 A new version GTK+ Runtime installer is out (see the Downloads section). This version is based on GTK+ 2.22.0, which is a major step up from 2.16, now that all the major Windows-specific issues have been resolved. 2010-05-12 A new version GTK+ Runtime installer is out (see the Downloads section). This version fixes two issues: installing to a non-default directory was broken (embedded installers were unaffected); the dll location was not added to PATH even if requested (happened sometimes, only when upgrading). 2010-02-24 A new version GTK+ Runtime installer is out (see the Downloads section). This version fixes a conflict between shared an private (embedded) installations of GTK+. It also changes some options for embedding and silent installation. See the Embedding GTK+ section for details. 2010-02-21 A new version GTK+ Runtime installer is out (see the Downloads section). It is based on gtk+-2.16.6-2 and fixes some problems when running GTK+ applications under Windows 7. Note that starting with this version, DLLs which are not direct dependencies of GTK+ (but used to be in the past) are not installed by default anymore. You can still install them by enabling the "Compatibility DLLs" checkbox during installation, or by using the /compatdlls=yes switch. Application packagers are reminded that they should distribute any DLL files their applications are linked with together with their applications, unless these DLLs are parts of gtk, glib, atk, pango or cairo. The affected DLL files are: jpeg62.dll, libjpeg-7.dll, libtiff3.dll, libtiff-3.dll, libpng12.dll, libpng12-0.dll, iconv.dll. 2009-12-01 A new version GTK+ Runtime installer is out (see the Downloads section). It fixes PATH corruption (happened when the original value was longer than 1024 bytes; use Unicode NSIS from now on). Also, this version features a lot of changes to make GTK+ installer easily embeddable into other installers. See Embedding GTK+ for more information. You'll notice that it is still based on gtk+-2.16.6. This is due a fact that, unfortunately, gtk+-2.18.x has some problems under Windows (see bug #598299 , some other bugs too). I will release a new version as soon as these problems are resolved by GTK+ developers. Also, this installer still contains libjpeg-7.dll, libtiff-3.dll and libpng12-0.dll (see the previous news entry). They will be removed in the next major version. 2009-09-12 GTK+ Runtime installer has been updated to gtk+-2.16.6. See the Downloads section for details. This version is the last version to contain jpeg62.dll, libtiff3.dll and libpng12.dll, which are included for compatibility only and replaced by libjpeg-7.dll, libtiff-3.dll and libpng12-0.dll. Note that because of this change, your application may not be compatible with future versions of GTK+ Runtime. The application packagers are reminded that to avoid such problems in the future, they should include any dlls their applications are linked with, except for gtk, glib, atk, pango and cairo. 2009-09-07 GTK+ Themes installer and engines/themes zip file have been updated.

This version fixes a bug introduced some time in 2.12, which prevented applications from spawning other programs. Also, <instdir>\bin has been added as a default install location for dlls. This should resolve PATH conflicts for binaries distributed with GTK+ itself, allowing multiple simultaneous GTK+ installations. 2008-10-22 GTK+ Runtime installer has been updated to gtk+-2.14.4.

Please ensure that you bundle libpng13.dll with your application if you explicitly depend on it, or re-link it against libpng12-0.dll. Note that libpng12.dll (the exact copy of libpng12-0.dll) is still bundled, as it's required by The Gimp. 2008-03-18 GTK+ Runtime installer has been updated to gtk+-2.12.9.
