[Qgis-developer] Fwd: windows build environment for QGIS

[Byambaa Mendbayar]

Hi jaan,

 

What SVN version are you using? The latest SVN or 0.8.0 Release
(https://svn.qgis.org/repos/qgis/branches/Release-0_8_0/)? If you were
getting latest (unstable) SVN source then you have to use CMAKE instead of
QMAKE, of course latest SVN must be using CMAKE!

 

Also suggest to you Martin's advice too.

P.S By the way I have two versions of QGIS source codes (R 0.8.0 and latest
SVN) and they are compiled well in windows platform using Tim Sutton's
README_windows.txt (MinGW and bundled MSYS package) and CMAKE.



 

Best regards,

Byambaa Mendbayar

       Procedure for setup of a windows build environment for QGIS
                    Tim Sutton and Godofredo Contreras 2006
  With thanks to Tisham Dhar for preparing the initial msys environment 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----

This document describes the process you need to follow to get QGIS built
directly
under windows (rather than using a cross compiler under linux).Note: The
process for building under windows is still being sorted out so 
      check this document regularly for updates.

Msys:
-----
get this: 

 <http://qgis.org/uploadfiles/msys/msys.tar.bz2>
http://qgis.org/uploadfiles/msys/msys.tar.bz2

and unpack to c:\msys

The file is compressed using bzip2 - you can get a free windows application
for creating and decompressing files here:

 <http://www.7-zip.org/> http://www.7-zip.org/

Qt4.2:
------

Download qt4.2 opensource precompiled edition exe and install (including the

download and install of mingw) from here:

 <http://www.trolltech.com/developer/downloads/qt/windows>
http://www.trolltech.com/developer/downloads/qt/windows 

Edit C:\Qt\4.2.0\bin\qtvars.bat and add the following line (the second is
only 
needed if you like vim in your shell):

set PATH=%PATH%;C:\msys\local\bin;c:\msys\local\lib
set PATH=%PATH%;"c:\Program Files\Vim\vim70\

If you plan to do some debugging, you'll need to complie debug version of
Qt:
C:\Qt\4.2.0\bin\qtvars.bat compile_debug


QGIS:
-----
Check out to c:\dev\cpp\qgis:

cd c:\dev\cpp
svn co  <https://svn.qgis.org/repos/qgis/trunk/qgis>
https://svn.qgis.org/repos/qgis/trunk/qgis 

Currently you need to put it into that location in case you plan to create
the NSIS installer because so far it contains hardcoded paths for this
location.


Source changes:
---------------

Next you need to shift some files around. For convenience we've made an
archive
that handles all the changes for you. Download it and unpack to qgis source
directory:

 <http://qgis.org/uploadfiles/msys/qgis-qmake-files.zip>
http://qgis.org/uploadfiles/msys/qgis-qmake-files.zip

List of what has been changed / added by this archive to enable compilation:

 - moved qgscsexception.h, qgsspatialrefsys* and qgscoordinatetransform*
into core dir from gui
 - moved qgspluginregistry.* from core to gui
 - qgsspatialrefsys.cpp - commented out SRS validation using projection
selector 
 - qgsspatialrefsys.cpp - commented out lines using qgsproject as it depends
on gui stuff
 - qgsdistancearea.cpp - commented out lines using qgsproject as it depends
on 
   gui stuff and moved to core
 - lexer and parser generated by genlexyacc.bat
 - added custom qgsconfig.h and qgssvnversion.h


Building:
---------

Now open the qt command shell (or start "cmd" and run
c:\Qt\4.2.0\bin\qtvars.bat)

cd c:\dev\cpp\qgis
qmake
make

This will compile both debug and release version. To make just a one of them
use "make debug" or "make release" respectively.

Note: debug version uses debug version of Qt library thus if linking fails
on not founding library QtSvgd4 (or similar), you need to compile them
as described in section for Qt.

Running: (optional)
--------

After successfull make you can run QGIS directly from the directory
where it has been built: qgis-debug and/or qgis-release in qgis root dir.
You only need to add data files - we have provided an archive for
convenience 
which you can just unpack there and run QGIS:

 <http://qgis.org/uploadfiles/msys/qgis_data.zip>
http://qgis.org/uploadfiles/msys/qgis_data.zip

Then just run qgis.exe

GDB: (optional)
----

If you plan to do some debugging, download and install gdb-6.3.2.exe from 

 <http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/gdb-6.3-2.exe?download>
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/gdb-6.3-2.exe?download 

and install to c:\msys\mingw


Create the installation package: (optional)
--------------------------------

Downlad and install NSIS from ( <http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page>
http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page )

Download both the QGIS debug and release installer packages from 

 <http://qgis.org/uploadfiles/testbuilds/>
http://qgis.org/uploadfiles/testbuilds/

and install them. Now copy the installation dirs from C:\Program Files\QGIS*
into 
c:\dev\cpp\qgis\qgis-debug and c:\dev\cpp\qgis\qgis-release respectively.
After
making these copies uninstall the release and debug versions of QGIS from 
your c:\Program Files directories using the provided uninstaller. Double
check
that both dirs are complete gone under program files afterwards.

Now using windows explorer, enter the c:\dev\cpp\qgis\win_build directory
and right 
click on qgis.nsi and choose the option 'Compile NSIS Script'. Do the same 
for qgis-debug.nsi. Congratulations you should have two installable qgis 
setup files in the win_build directory now..

 


I FOLLOWED THIS METHOD TO SETUP WINDOWS BUILD ENVIRONMENT FOR QGIS...BUT
ENCOUNTERED WITH SOME PROBLEMS IN THE MIDDLE...

1.after runnng make---errors due to missing of"qgsconfig.h &qgssvnversion.h"

where i can get it????

 

pls help me.......
