Unfortunately, I am using Windows (Windows7 x64).
With MinGW compiler in Code::Blocks and GTK+3.6.4.
I compiled manually all the schemas from glib.
When I use File Chooser dialogue / colorpicker - it doesn't matter,
I am getting the following error:
GLib-GIO-ERROR**: No GSettings schemas are installed on the system
and the program terminates.
What do I have to do to fix this?
GSettings looks at the compiled schemas in the directories pointed by the $XDG_DATA_DIR
environment variable. You can either use a launcher script that sets up the environment for you, or you can rely on the prefix, and install the gschemas.compiled files in the share/glib-2.0/schemas
directory under the same prefix as your app binary is, e.g. if you have the following layout:
YourApp/
bin/
YourApp.exe
lib/
libgtk3.dll
libgobject.dll
…
share/
…
glib-2.0/
schemas/
Make sure that the gschemas.compiled
file is under YourApp/share/glib-2.0/schemas
, and that the org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser.gschema.xml
is there as well.
The problem is with the Glib schemas that apparently are not compiled on your system.
You need the glib-compile-schemas
and find the glib-2.0/schemas
directory which is located in /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas
, I don't know if it will be found in the same path within MinGW, but I don't see why it wouldn't, so you must execute the following command1
glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/
and that will create a file gschemas.compiled
so you need write permission, then the error will go away.
1Provided that the GLib schemas are installed in that directory.
