Windows possible?

sengiv opened this issue ยท 2 comments

How do I go about running in windows 10?

I can write a windows .net port, if can't be done now.

Please point me in the right direction ๐Ÿ™

Well, given that:

  • Clight requires a dbus system service (Clightd)
  • both Clight and Clightd use libmodule that is not available for windows
  • both Clight and Clightd use systemd dbus library (sd-bus)

I assume it would be very very hard to port Clight to windows, sorry. I always developed it to be linux-specific :)
Nowadays, libmodule works on osx and bsd too, but since both rely on DBus and its systemd library, i guess it would be pretty hard to port them to osx/bsd too.

In the end, i think a full rewrite should be the way to go, unfortunately :(

Closing this one! Btw thanks for the interest, please let me know if you start working on a porting (or a completely new impl from scratch!).
It would be really interesting to learn the Windows API!
