If you can't or don't want to install an MS supplied toolchain I would
suggest looking in to installing MSYS and MinGW in order to get an
environment set up so code can be compiled. There are additional library
dependencies that will also need to be installed. It is isn't going to be
simple as there are a number of steps involved but I don't think it is that
bad overall. I have been able to set up an build environment on one of my
Windows based machines. I don't know how easily a non-programmer would be
able to get everything place to build GIMP and some of its dependencies.
IIRC, I documented the process I went through to set up MSYS/MinGW for
building code but that was long before the multiple programming language
support now required to build GIMP. I'll look for my old notes in case it
might help.
