Read First

While almost everything on this page remains accurate, and is highly useful for a reference, this will no longer lead to a successful build against the 2.4.x branch. The biggest reason is the addition of using the ImageMagick api. Hopefully soon there will be a much smoother process for all of this.

Tools

For general tools, here are some recommendations:

  • svn: for commandline svn, try this:
     http://subversion.tigris.org/files/documents/15/44049/Setup-Subversion-1.5.3.msi

for windows explorer integrated, try this:

     http://downloads.sourceforge.net/tortoisesvn/TortoiseSVN-1.5.5.14361-win32-svn-1.5.4.msi?download
  • text editing: use an editor that handles unix line endings and preserves them. Examples include notepad++, vim (vi is included in msys), and emacs.
     emacs: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/emacs-22.3-bin-i386.zip
     notepad++: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/notepad-plus/npp.5.1.1.Installer.exe?use_mirror=
  • zip: for commandline unzip, try this:
     http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/unzip.htm

for windows gui (or command line), try 7zip:

     http://www.7-zip.org/
  • wget: for downloading via wget:
     http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/wget.htm
  • gdb: for debugging:
     http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435&package_id=20507&release_id=594520
  • gdb: the most useful thing to do with gdb is to place it directly into "C:\Program Files\CrossWire\Gnomesword\bin", open a windows command prompt, cd to that directory, and run from there. I do this to run Gnomesword without gdb as well.
  • console: I use Console2 from here:
     http://downloads.sourceforge.net/console/Console-2.00b141-Beta.zip
  • There have been various complaints and issues with the shell that comes with msys (specific to gnomesword, gdb doesn't play well with the msys shell), so I recommend using either Console2 above, or using the windows command prompt. Either way, you can start your normal bash session with this command:
     C:\msys\1.0\bin\sh --login
  • NOTE: please use only the tools recommended here. Especially, do not download and use other utilities from gnuwin32, because some of them have known conflicts. Also, do not use cygwin tools, or other perl distributions, etc. Unfortunately there are many different incompatible ports of various gnu tools. You have been warned!!

Setting up MinGW

A tutorial for how to set up a MinGW build environment.

  • Install MinGW base system only
     http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435&package_id=240780
  • Install MSYS (Be sure to grab the current release installer, not the tech preview.)
     http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435&package_id=24963
  • Install msysDTK directly over msys (direct link to file)
     http://downloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/msysDTK-1.0.1.exe?modtime=1041430674&big_mirror=1
  • Install m4-1.4.7-MSYS into your msys /bin
     http://downloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/m4-1.4.7-MSYS.tar.bz2?modtime=1162303978&big_mirror=1
  • Install strawberry perl in default location
     http://strawberryperl.com/
  • Set the environment variable INTLTOOL_PERL=/path/to/strawberry/bin/perl by adding the following line to c:\msys\1.0\etc\profile:
     export INTLTOOL_PERL=/c/strawberry/perl/bin/perl

Setting up Utilities

For all the utilities, when you run configure do it with --prefix=/mingw

  • install gnome versions of utilities (direct links below)
create a directory c:\msys\1.0\dev
add this line to your profile
     export PATH=$PATH:/dev/bin:/c/mingw/bin    
unpack everything there
you need these utilities at this point:
all these are from http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/dependencies/
 pkg-config: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/dependencies/pkg-config-0.23-2.zip
 gettext: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/dependencies/gettext-0.14.5.zip
 gettext-dev: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/dependencies/gettext-dev-0.14.5.zip
 gettext-runtime: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/dependencies/gettext-runtime-0.17.zip
 gettext-runtime-dev: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/dependencies/gettext-runtime-dev-0.17.zip
 glib: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/glib/2.18/glib_2.18.3-1_win32.zip
  • add this line to your profile
     export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/dev/lib/pkgconfig
  • upgrade autoconf to 2.63 from source
     http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/autoconf/
  • upgrade automake to 1.9 from source
     http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake/

Compiling Sword

  • install libcurl
     http://curl.haxx.se/download.html
     (direct link) http://www.gknw.net/mirror/curl/win32/curl-7.19.0-devel-mingw32.zip
     everything in the zip file needs to be extracted to the appropriate directory under /dev
     you will need to make a directory /dev/lib/pkgconfig and put libcurl.pc there
     find curl-config script from linux and copy it to /mingw/bin
  • compile clucene
     http://downloads.sourceforge.net/clucene/clucene-core-0.9.21b.zip
     ./configure --prefix=/dev
     make
     make install
  • compile sword-1.5.11 from source
     use libcurl, not ftplib
     you will have to manually alter makefile to link against regex (do this in sword-1.5.11/lib/Makefile, line "#am__objects_3 = regex.lo", take out "#")
     compiling utilities is broken with mingw
     you do not need to compile with icu
     you will need to add -lz to sword-1.5.11/Makefile on the line "LIBS"

Download Gnome Libraries

  • download lots of gnome libs and unpack them in dev
     for everything, you need the normal and developer package

     libjpeg: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/dependencies/libjpeg-6b-4.zip

xml2po and themes

  • setup xml2po
     install python 2.5 http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.5.2/python-2.5.2.msi
     ensure that python is on your path (windows environment variable)
     edit /dev/bin/xml2po shebang line to just say #! python
     install python libxml2 from here: http://users.skynet.be/sbi/libxml-python/binaries/libxml2-python-2.6.27.win32-py2.5.exe
  • install iconv
     You will need this version of iconv http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/libiconv.htm.
  • install gnome-icon-theme
     http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/gnome-icon-theme/2.24/gnome-icon-theme_2.24.0-1_win32.zip
     You may need to rename share/icons/gnome/ to share/icons/hicolor. This theme is required by the studypad

Compile Gnomesword

  • download gnomesword 2.4.1
  • alter configure script to allow compilation without scrollkeeper
     find the line "if test x$SCROLLKEEPER_CONFIG = xno; then
     comment this line and the next five lines, including this one:
     SCROLLKEEPER_BUILD_REQUIRED=0.3.5
  • update gnomesword to latest 2.4.x svn
  • save this to a shell script in your gnomesword directory (take out the forced linebreak)
     #! /bin/sh
     ./configure --enable-gtkhtml --disable-scrollkeeper --enable-maintainer-mode --prefix=/dev
     sed 's/SWORD_LIBS = -Lc:\/msys\/1.0\/dev\/lib -lsword -lz/SWORD_LIBS = [forced linebreak; remove]
-Lc:\/msys\/1.0\/dev\/lib -lsword \/dev\/bin\/libcurl.dll \/dev\/lib\/libclucene.a -lz/' src/gnome2/Makefile > src/gnome2/Makefile2
     cp src/gnome2/Makefile2 src/gnome2/Makefile
     rm src/gnome2/Makefile2
  • run the script
  • make
  • make install
  • run gnomesword
  • Windows XP look

To get the windows XP look, go to /dev/share/themes/MS-Windows/gtk-2.0 copy gtkrc to /dev/etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc

  • Linking Gnomesword to avoid having console open:
     in src/gnome2/Makefile, find GNOME_LIBS and add -mwindows to the end
  • This will produce an executable that does not need the console. Unfortunately, when you run it, gconfd starts up and opens a console that remains open. This can be closed with no consequence to Gnomesword, but it is still annoying. The best way to run Gnomesword (if you're wanting to run without the console), is to create a .bat file in the gnomesword directory with this line:
     start gnomesword %*

This will very briefly flash a console window which disappears immediately. Because gnucash does this as well, I think that we will probably have to include this file with the installer and link to it from the start menu.

Moving Gnomesword to its own directory

  • Create a folder "C:\Program Files\Gnomesword"
  • under that, create bin, share, libexec, etc, lib
  • in bin, copy all of the dll's from /dev/bin
  • in bin, copy gnomesword.exe
  • in bin, copy gnome-open.exe, gpsawn-win32-helper-exe, gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe from /dev/bin
  • in etc, copy everything from /dev/etc
  • in lib, copy from /dev/lib bonobo (folder), bonobo-2.0 (folder), GConf (folder), gnome-vfs-2.0 (folder), gtk-2.0 (folder), gtkhtml (folder), libglade (folder), libgnomeprint (folder), locale (folder), orbit-2.0 (folder), libpango-1.0.dll.a, libpangocairo-1.0.dll.a, libpangoft2-1.0.dll.a, libpangowin32-1.0.dll.a
  • in libexec, you need bonobo-activation-server.exe and gconfd-2.exe, copied from /dev/libexec
  • in share, you need doc, gnome, gnomesword, gtkhtml-3.14, i18n, icons, idl, locale, locale-langpack (umm, mine I copied from linux), pixmaps, sword, themes, xml

I really don't know that everything here is necessary. Some of it definitely is, some perhaps not.
