build gstreamer-1.0 on windows environment

[Saurabh Bora]

Hi Experts!

I wish to build gstreamer from source on windows environment.

1) I have cloned following repository:

git clone -b meson-1.14 https://github.com/centricular/cerbero

2) Bootstrapped cerbero:

cerbero -c config/win64-msvc-shell.cbc bootstrap -->This installed all the required build-tools. For e.g., meson and ninja

3) I tried building gstreamer-1.0 using following command, but build fails

cerbero -c config/win64-msvc-shell.cbc build gstreamer-1.0

Please take a look at output below which was printed on console window.

ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

Recipe 'gstreamer-1.0' failed at the build step 'compile'

Select an action to proceed:

[0] Enter the shell

[1] Rebuild the recipe from scratch

[2] Rebuild starting from the failed step

[3] Skip recipe

[4] Abort

---------------------------------------------------------------

Please note that, I have also tried updating the gst/meson.build file. Modified to include statement- sources : [gst_gen_sources, gstenum_h],

Still gstreamer-1.0 does not compile. Could you please help me understand what is wrong?

Also, I am unable to generate visual studio solution using the command: cerbero -c config/win64-msvc-shell.cbc genvssln glib

It seems like Cerbero is not able to identify genvssln as an option and it prompts on cmd that add-package, genvsprops and other options are available. It would be a great help if anyone could point me in the right direction to build gstreamer-1.0 on windows environment.
