I am new to GPredict and wanted a new compile (post 3.2.37) in order to avoid wrap around tracking. I followed directions for installing MSYS2 and with only minor fussing was able to compile for windows. The program appears generally in good order (some config defaults seem off). The main issue is that when I open Rotor Control, the Az/El knobs don't show up (Az is always missing, El is usually missing). I've tracked this down to the length of the b[7] array definition, which I believe should be 8. Just to be extra safe I set it to b[9] (not familiar with g_ascii_formatd and termination etc.) and it appears to work as intended on initial opening and tracking updates.
static void gtk_rot_knob_update(GtkRotKnob * knob)
{
gchar b[7]; //<-------- Here
gchar *buff;
guint i;
g_ascii_formatd(b, 8, "%6.2f", fabs(knob->value));
/* set label markups */
for (i = 0; i < 6; i++)
{
buff = g_strdup_printf(FMTSTR, b[i]);
gtk_label_set_markup(GTK_LABEL(knob->digits[i + 1]), buff);
g_free(buff);
}
if (knob->value < 0)
buff = g_strdup_printf(FMTSTR, '-');
else
buff = g_strdup_printf(FMTSTR, ' ');
gtk_label_set_markup(GTK_LABEL(knob->digits[0]), buff);
g_free(buff);
}
