<h3><a name="intro">1. Introduction</a></h3> |
| 48 |
|
| 49 |
<p>This page contains instructions for building libgig, linuxsampler |
| 50 |
and gigedit on Windows with help of MinGW and MSYS. After the MinGW |
| 51 |
and MSYS environment and the other prerequisites are installed, the |
| 52 |
build procedure will be the same as in Linux, that is, basically: |
| 53 |
./configure ; make ; make install.</p> |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
<p>The versions of the files to download are just the ones I used when |
| 56 |
last updating this text. You can probably use later ones if |
| 57 |
available.</p> |
| 58 |
|
| 59 |
<p>Some of the instructions below are marked with ***:</p> |
| 60 |
|
| 61 |
<p>*** = only needed if you are going to build gigedit</p> |
| 62 |
|
| 63 |
|
| 64 |
<h3><a name="mingw">2. MinGW</a></h3> |
| 65 |
|
| 66 |
<p>Download the MinGW installer, mingw-get-inst-20120426.exe, |
| 67 |
from <a href="http://www.mingw.org">www.mingw.org</a>, "Installer / |
| 68 |
mingw-get-inst", and run it. The installer will automatically download |
| 69 |
and install further packages. Choose the C Compiler, C++ Compiler and |
| 70 |
MinGW Developer ToolKit.</p> |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
|
| 73 |
<h3><a name="gcc">3. gcc ***</a></h3> |
| 74 |
|
| 75 |
<p>If you're going to build gigedit, it's important to have a gcc |
| 76 |
version that is compatible with the libraries in the gtkmm package. I |
| 77 |
couldn't get gigedit working with the gcc bundled in MinGW. The |
| 78 |
MinGW-w64 project (which has compilers for both 32 and 64 bit Windows) |
| 79 |
has one that works better. Download |
| 80 |
from <a href="http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/">http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/</a>, |
| 81 |
WIN32 Downloads, Personal Builds, rubenvb, release: |
| 82 |
i686-w64-mingw32-gcc-4.5.3-release-win32_rubenvb.7z, and extract in a |
| 83 |
directory of your choice. Add the bin directory first in PATH, for |
| 84 |
example:</p> |
| 85 |
<pre>export PATH=/c/MinGW-w64/mingw32/bin:$PATH</pre> |
| 86 |
|
| 87 |
|
| 88 |
<h3><a name="pkg">4. pkg-config</a></h3> |
| 89 |
|
| 90 |
<p>(You can skip this step if you're going to build gigedit, as |
| 91 |
pkg-config is included in gtkmm.)</p> |
| 92 |
<p>The pkg-config tool is needed by the configure script in all the |
| 93 |
LinuxSampler packages. Download both the Tool and the Dev package |
| 94 |
from <a href="http://www.gtk.org">www.gtk.org</a>. Extract |
| 95 |
pkg-config_0.26-1_win32.zip and pkg-config-dev_0.26-1_win32.zip to |
| 96 |
C:\MinGW.</p> |
| 97 |
|
| 98 |
|
| 99 |
<h3><a name="gtkmm">5. gtkmm ***</a></h3> |
| 100 |
|
| 101 |
<p>Download the gtkmm windows installer, |
| 102 |
gtkmm-win32-devel-2.16.0-4.exe (2.16 seems to have less bugs than |
| 103 |
2.22), from <a href="http://www.gtkmm.org">www.gtkmm.org</a>, and run |
| 104 |
it. Let the installer adjust the PATH variable as it wants.</p> |
| 105 |
|
| 106 |
|
| 107 |
<h3><a name="asio">6. ASIO SDK</a></h3> |
| 108 |
|
| 109 |
<p>Download asiosdk2.2.zip from Steinberg. Extract it to your msys |
| 110 |
$HOME.</p> |
| 111 |
|
| 112 |
|
| 113 |
<h3><a name="vst">7. VST SDK</a></h3> |
| 114 |
|
| 115 |
<p>If you want to build the LinuxSampler VST plugin, download |
| 116 |
vst_sdk2_4_rev2.zip from Steinberg (note that you should not choose |
| 117 |
version 3). Extract it to msys $HOME.</p> |
| 118 |
|
| 119 |
|
| 120 |
<h3><a name="intl">8. intltool ***</a></h3> |
| 121 |
|
| 122 |
<p>Download intltool_0.40.4-1_win32.zip from |
| 123 |
<a href="http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/binaries/win32/intltool">http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/binaries/win32/intltool</a></p> |
| 124 |
|
| 125 |
<p>Unzip this into the gtkmm directory (C:\Program Files\gtkmm)</p> |
| 126 |
|
| 127 |
|
| 128 |
<h3><a name="xslt">9. xsltproc ***</a></h3> |
| 129 |
|
| 130 |
<p>The gigedit Makefile wants to build the gigedit quick start |
| 131 |
documentation, so it needs the xsltproc command. Download from |
| 132 |
<a href="http://www.zlatkovic.com/pub/libxml/">http://www.zlatkovic.com/pub/libxml/</a>:</p> |
| 133 |
|
| 134 |
<pre>libxslt-1.1.26.win32.zip</pre> |
| 135 |
|
| 136 |
<p>Copy the contents of the bin directory from the zip file to a |
| 137 |
directory of your choice. Add this directory last in your msys PATH, |
| 138 |
for example:</p> |
| 139 |
|
| 140 |
<pre>export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/xsltproc</pre> |
| 141 |
|
| 142 |
|
| 143 |
<h3><a name="setup">10. MSYS setup</a></h3> |
| 144 |
|
| 145 |
<p>*** Add the gtkmm aclocal directory to the list of extra directories |
| 146 |
used by autoconf. (Make sure the gtkmm path is the one where you |
| 147 |
installed it. The space in "Program Files" causes problems, so the |
| 148 |
short file name form is used here):</p> |
| 149 |
|
| 150 |
<pre>echo "/c/Progra~1/gtkmm/share/aclocal" >> /mingw/share/aclocal/dirlist</pre> |
| 151 |
|
| 152 |
<p>*** Add the gtkmm bin directory first in your PATH (the installer has |
| 153 |
already added gtkmm to the PATH, but it may have used "Program Files" |
| 154 |
with a space in it, which causes configure to fail):</p> |
| 155 |
|
| 156 |
<pre>export PATH=/c/Progra~1/gtkmm/bin:$PATH</pre> |
| 157 |
|
| 158 |
|
| 159 |
<p>Make sure pkg-config will find the libraries you build:</p> |
| 160 |
|
| 161 |
<pre>export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig</pre> |
| 162 |
|
| 163 |
|
| 164 |
<p>*** The intltool scripts expect perl to be in /opt/perl/bin, so |
| 165 |
make a link to the real perl.exe:</p> |
| 166 |
|
| 167 |
<pre>mkdir -p /opt/perl/bin |
| 168 |
ln -s /bin/perl.exe /opt/perl/bin</pre> |
| 169 |
|
| 170 |
|
| 171 |
<p>*** The gettext configure tools need:</p> |
| 172 |
|
| 173 |
<pre>export CPPFLAGS="-I/c/Progra~1/gtkmm/include" |
| 174 |
export LDFLAGS="-L/c/Progra~1/gtkmm/lib"</pre> |
| 175 |
|
| 176 |
|
| 177 |
<h3><a name="sqlite">11. Building SQLite</a></h3> |
| 178 |
|
| 179 |
<p>The windows precompiled version of SQLite doesn't include the |
| 180 |
neccessary development files, so it's best to build SQLite yourself. |
| 181 |
Download sqlite-autoconf-3071300.tar.gz |
| 182 |
from <a href="http://www.sqlite.org">www.sqlite.org</a> and extract it |
| 183 |
to your $HOME:</p> |
| 184 |
|
| 185 |
<pre>cd |
| 186 |
tar xf sqlite-autoconf-3071300.tar.gz</pre> |
| 187 |
|
| 188 |
<p>Build and install:</p> |
| 189 |
|
| 190 |
<pre>cd sqlite-autoconf-3071300 |
| 191 |
./configure |
| 192 |
make |
| 193 |
make install</pre> |
| 194 |
|
| 195 |
|
| 196 |
<h3><a name="sndfile">12. Building libsndfile</a></h3> |
| 197 |
|
| 198 |
<p>The windows precompiled version of libsndfile doesn't include the |
| 199 |
neccessary pkg-config file, so it's best to build libsndfile |
| 200 |
yourself. Download libsndfile-1.0.25.tar.gz |
| 201 |
from <a href="http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/">www.mega-nerd.com</a> and |
| 202 |
extract it to your $HOME:</p> |
| 203 |
|
| 204 |
<pre>cd |
| 205 |
tar xf libsndfile-1.0.25.tar.gz</pre> |
| 206 |
|
| 207 |
<p>Build and install:</p> |
| 208 |
|
| 209 |
<pre>cd libsndfile-1.0.25 |
| 210 |
./configure |
| 211 |
make |
| 212 |
make install</pre> |
| 213 |
|
| 214 |
|
| 215 |
<h3><a name="gig">13. Building libgig</a></h3> |
| 216 |
|
| 217 |
<p>Just use the same commands as you would in linux:</p> |
| 218 |
|
| 219 |
<pre>make -f Makefile.cvs (if you build from Subversion) |
| 220 |
./configure (add any configuration parameters as you wish) |
| 221 |
make |
| 222 |
make install</pre> |
| 223 |
|
| 224 |
|
| 225 |
<h3><a name="ls">14. Building linuxsampler</a></h3> |
| 226 |
|
| 227 |
<pre>make -f Makefile.cvs (if you build from Subversion) |
| 228 |
./configure --enable-asiosdk-dir=$HOME --enable-vstsdk-dir=$HOME/vstsdk2.4 |
| 229 |
make |
| 230 |
make install</pre> |
| 231 |
|
| 232 |
|
| 233 |
<h3><a name="gigedit">15. Building gigedit</a></h3> |
| 234 |
|
| 235 |
<pre>make -f Makefile.cvs (if you build from Subversion) |
| 236 |
./configure |
| 237 |
make |
| 238 |
make install</pre> |
