[Qgis-developer] build qgis-grass plugin on Windows

[godofredo contreras]

 Hi Giovanny:

 

You can use the libs and includes bundled with osgeo4w to build qgis and

grass plugin.

 

Using osgeo4w do the following:

 

install grass from desktop category

install grass-devel-vc from libs (be sure is the same version that grass ) 

install gdal from libs

install geos from libs

install sqlite from libs

install proj from libs

install xpat from libs

install gsl from libs

 

create the environment variable LIB_DIR pointing to c:/osgeo4w and run

cmakesetup, after that set GRASS_PREFIX to the grass instalation directory

(something like c:/osgeo4w/apps/grass/gras-6.4.0R3)

 

And thats all, start compiling with visual studio or nmake

 

Hope this helps

 

Regards 

Godofredo Contreras

Subject: [Qgis-developer] build qgis-grass plugin on Windows

Hi. I'm going on with my battle to compile qgis+grass on windows vista... very frustrating!
I've almost finished to compile grass under mingw, as AFAIK it's the only way to do it. Am I wrong?
I've built its various dependencies (like GDAL, proj, libtiff, freetype, etc.) under ingw too.
Now, what to do with QGIS? I know it should be compiled with MSVC, at least it's the way choosen for OSGeo4W stack. So I should rebuild GDAL, and all the rest of the stuff, with MSVC? And, at the end, how to build the grass-qgis plugin? Isn't it a problem having compiled the various parts with different systems?

Ok, I admit, I'm a bit confused working on Windos. Linux is more linear to me! :)

Giovanni
