Issue Encountered during GTK4 Installation on Windows
I followed the recommended installation guide from the book GTK4 Installation Guide for Windows, but I encountered the following error:
Package gtk4 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtk4.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gtk4' found
The reason behind this error is that the guide does not include instructions to add the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable. To resolve this issue, you should add a new environment variable with the following details:
Variable Name: PKG_CONFIG_PATH
Variable Value: C:\gtk-build\gtk\x64\release\lib\pkgconfig
Here is an image highlighting the error in the code:
