[QGIS-Developer] Build QGIS on Windows - Query

[godofredo contreras]

Reading the INSTALL file I can see it is also outdated. 

 

The file qgis_msvc_deps_except_qt4.zip used to contain all headers and libraries needed to build Qgis, now you can download OSGeo4W from here: http://download.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/osgeo4w-setup.exe and download and install GDAL, GEOS, GSL, EXPAT, POSTGRES libs.

 

then in the cmake step point to lib and include folders of your osgeo4w installation directory, this way cmake can find the dependencies.

 

Regards

Hello Abhay:
 
The uptodate documentation for building is in a file named INSTALL. You can find this file
in the directory where you checked out the qgis sources.

Hello List, 


I am following the build procedure qgis on windows using the method / step defined as per Building From Source [1] on wiki.


The file qgis_msvc_deps_except_qt4.zip[2] seem to be missing or un-reachable.


Could anyone let me know if the file is available in some other link.


Rgds.
Abhay.
