[PD] building externals on windows

the pd-lib-builder file defines default paths for each system, but on windows it's quite likely that you have your Pd installed somewhere else.

+1. Very nice - and fast! - editor. Also has lots of great plug-ins. I use it all the time whenever I don't need an IDE.

The Pd installer is fine for a normal user. Not for a w32 dev/tester.
 
I recommend that you use the zip version. You don`t want  “C:\Program Files (x86)” as it has spaces in the name.
 
Automatically find what?
 
Your pd-extended installation?
Your 0.46.7 instt?
Your 0.47.1 install?
Your coming 0.48.0 install?
Your Purr-Data install?
 
They all have  “m_pd.h” and “pd.dll”. 
 
I also recommend:
 
https://notepad-plus-plus.org/[https://notepad-plus-plus.org/] 
 
for displaying .txt that are unix/osx format. Change it at the botton right before utf-8/ansi.
Also very useful tool for programing.
 
Salutti,
Lucarda.

If you use pd-lib-builder, just open the shell, 'cd' to the directory of the makefile and type:
 
make pdincludepath={path to m_pd.h} pdbinpath={path to pd.exe}
make install objectsdir={where you want to install}
 
yes, I use pd-lib-builder, but doesn't it automatically find the m_pd.h and pd.exe files automatically?
