- Windows port
- ------------
-
-This directory contains the files required to build this software on the
-native Windows platform.
-
-As a rule of thumb, the root of this directory contains files needed
-to build the library using the command-line tools, while various
-subdirectories contain project files for various IDEs.
-
-
- 1. Building from the command-line
- =================================
-
-This is the easiest, preferred and currently supported method.
-
-In order to build from the command-line you need to make sure that
-your compiler works from the command line. This is not always the
-case, often the required environment variables are missing. If you are
-not sure, test if this works first. If it doesn't, you will first have
-to configure your compiler suite to run from the command-line - please
-refer to your compiler's documentation regarding that.
-
-The first thing you want to do is configure the source. You can have
-the configuration script do this automatically for you. The
-configuration script is written in JScript, a Microsoft's
-implementation of the ECMA scripting language. Almost every Windows
-machine can execute this through the Windows Scripting Host. If your
-system lacks the ability to execute JScript for some reason, you must
-perform the configuration manually.
-
-The second step is compiling the source and, optionally, installing it
-to the location of your choosing.
-
-
- 1.1 Configuring the source automatically
- ----------------------------------------
-
-The configuration script accepts numerous options. Some of these
-affect features which will be available in the compiled software,
-others affect the way the software is built and installed. To see a
-full list of options supported by the configuration script, run
-
- cscript configure.js help
-
-from the win32 subdirectory. The configuration script will present you
-the options it accepts and give a biref explanation of these. In every
-case you will have two sets of options. The first set is specific to
-the software you are building and the second one is specific to the
-Windows port.
-
-Once you have decided which options suit you, run the script with that
-options. Here is an example:
-
- cscript configure.js prefix=c:\opt include=c:\opt\include
- lib=c:\opt\lib debug=yes
-
-The previous example will configure the process to install the library
-in c:\opt, use c:\opt\include and c:\opt\lib as additional search
-paths for the compiler and the linker and build executables with debug
-symbols.
-
-Note: Please do not use path names which contain spaces. This will
-fail. Allowing this would require me to put almost everything in the
-Makefile in quotas and that looks quite ugly with my
-syntax-highlighting engine. If you absolutely must use spaces in paths
-send me an email and tell me why. If there are enough of you out there
-who need this, or if a single one has a very good reason, I will
-modify the Makefile to allow spaces in paths.
-
-
- 1.2 (Not) Configuring the source manually
- -----------------------------------------
-
-The manual configuration is pretty straightforward, but I would
-suggest rather to get a JScript engine and let the configure script do
-it for you. This process involves editing the apropriate Makefile to
-suit your needs, as well as manually generating certain *.h files from
-their *.h.in sources.
-
-If you really have no idea what I am talking about and ask yourself
-what in Gods name do I mean with '*.h files and their *.h.in sources',
-then you really should do an automatic configuration. Which files must
-be generated and what needs to be done with their sources in order to
-generate them is something people who have built this software before
-allready know. You will not find any explanations for that
-here. Please configure the source manually only if you allready know
-what you must do. Otherwise, you have the choice of either getting a
-precompiled binary distribution, or performing the automatic
-configuration.
-
-
- 1.3 Compiling
- -------------
-
-After the configuration stage has been completed, you want to build
-the software. You will have to use the make tool which comes with
-your compiler. If you, for example, configured the source to build
-with Microsoft's MSVC compiler, you would use the NMAKE utility. If
-ýou configured it to build with GNU C compiler, mingw edition, you
-would use the GNU make. Assuming you use MSVC, type
-
- nmake
-
-in the win32 subdirectory.When the building completes, you will find
-the executable files in win32\binaries directory.
-
-You can install the software into the directory you specified to the
-configure script during the configure stage by typing
-
- nmake install
-
-That would be it, enjoy.
-
-
- 2. Building with the IDE
- ========================
-
-Each supported IDE has its project files placed in a subdirectory of
-win32. If you use a particular IDE, you should be able to
-instinctively recognise its project files. When you have found your
-favourites, load them into the IDE and do whatever you would do with
-any other project files. If you are a novice and puzzled about how to
-use particular project files with a particular IDE, check for a readme
-file in that IDEs subdirectory. I won't discuss any particular IDE
-here, because I would like to keep this document as general as
-possible, and there is also a chance that support exists for IDEs
-which I have never seen.
