Building Enigma for Windows
===========================

This file outlines the steps required to build Enigma versions for
Windows.  If you find inaccuracies or omissions in this file, please
report them to enigma-devel@nongnu.org.


1) Native compilation
---------------------

It seems no one has managed to build Enigma with Visual Studio yet, so
you must resort to MinGW port of GNU C++ and the other GNU build
tools.  (Setting up a usable build environment is unfortunately more
difficult than the following notes suggest; prepare for a certain
amount of "tinkering".  But you can always ask for help on the Enigma
mailing list.)

  - Get and install MinGW from www.mingw.org

  - Get and install the appropriate development packages of

      * SDL >= 1.2 (www.libsdl.org)
      * SDL_mixer >= 1.2.4 (http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_mixer)
      * SDL_image >= 1.2.0 (http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_image)
      * SDL_ttf  (http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_ttf)
      * zlib
      * libpng
      * Xerces-C

  - Build Enigma by invoking "./configure && make" from the Enigma
    source directory.

For a more detailed memory log see appendix A)

2) Cross compilation
--------------------

You can also build Enigma for Windows from Linux.  Because most
development tools are readily available on Linux, this may in fact be
easier than the native compilation outlined above.  You need:

  - A Linux version of the MinGW compiler.  Debian has prebuilt packages 
    for this (check gcc -v includes --enable-sjlj-exceptions), 
    for other distributions try: 
    
      /etc/build-cross.sh 
    
    a updated and modified version of the script from
      http://www.libsdl.org/extras/win32/cross/README.txt

  - Get and install the libraries listed above

  - Configure the Enigma source code using etc/mingw32-configure.sh.
    Depending on your setup, you may have to adapt this little script
    a little bit.

  - Run "make"

For a more detailed memory log see appendix B)

3) Packaging
------------

There are two ways to package Enigma: Either as a simple .zip file or
as a graphical installer.  The script in etc/mingw32-dist.sh builds a
.zip package that includes all necessary files.  It also includes in
enigma.nsi a simple NSIS script that can be used to build a graphical
installer from the zip file.  Here is how:

  - Install NSIS 2.0 from www.nsis.org (It also runs under Wine if you
    are a Linux user).

  - Build a .zip package.

  - Extract the zip file and run the NSIS compiler on the included
    .nsi file.


4) Additional Notes
-------------------

A) Native MinGW Compilation
---------------------------

Decide where to install mingw,msys and GnuWin32 - the main restriction is are
paths without spaces (f.e. D:\MinGW, D:\msys, D:\GnuWin32).

Install MinGW-version.exe (includes: runtime+w32api+binutils+gcc-[core+g++]+make)

Install MinSys-version.exe
Install msysDTK-version.exe
Install msys-autoconf-2.59.tar.bz2 to msys
(Install msys-automake-1.8.2.tar.bz2 to msys)

Execute all shell commands from now on in msys/bash

Extract texi2html - ./configure;make;make install

Add GnuWin32/bin to PATH (either Windows or msys/bash)
Extract gettext-bin + dep to GnuWin32
Extract zip-bin to GnuWin32

Install upx anywhere in PATH

SDL-devel-1.2.14-mingw32.tar.gz
  extract to a workdir
  cp -rv bin lib share include /mingw/
  sed 's|^prefix=.*|prefix=/minw/|' <bin/sdl-config > /mingw/bin/i386-mingw32msvc-sdl-config
  cp /mingw/share/aclocal/sdl.m4 /share/aclocal/
  cp bin/*.dll to enigma/etc

SDL_ttf-devel-2.0.9-VC8.zip, SDL_mixer-devel-1.2.11-VC.zip, SDL_image-devel-1.2.10-VC.zip
  extract
  cp includes to /mingw/include/SDL
  cp lib/*.lib to /mingw/lib
  cp lib/*.dll to enigma/etc

libpng-1.2.18.tar.gz
  extract to workdir
  ./configure --prefix=/mingw
  make
  make install
  
zlib-1.2.3-lib.zip
  extract
  cp includes to /mingw/include
  cp lib/libz.dll.a to /mingw/lib 

curl

xerces-c
  ./configure --prefix=/mingw
  make
  make install
  
enigma
  ./autogen.sh
  ./configure
  cd etc
  ./mingw32-dist.sh
  Install etc/enigma.zip

B) Cross MinGW Compilation
---------------------------

Decide where to install the cross compiler. The project default is
/usr/i586-mingw32msvc with root ownership. If you are sure that you are the
only cross compile user you can install it in your homedir, too.

Let us call the installation base path CROSSPREFIX and TARGET the system we 
build for (default: i586-mingw32msvc). Then we will define
CROSSPATH = CROSSPREFIX/TARGET  (default:/usr/i586-mingw32msvc/i586-mingw32msvc)

etc/build-cross.sh copy as root or user to a workdir
  edit PREFIX to your selected CROSSPATH
  edit MINGW_URL if appropriate
  execute it - this will take some time
  (you may save the downloaded source directory - the rest can be deleted)
  chown -R root:root CROSSPATH

SDL-devel-1.2.11-mingw32.tar.gz
  extract to a workdir
  move include/* to CROSSPATH/include/SDL
  edit Makefile CROSS_PATH to your selected CROSSPATH
  edit bin/i386-mingw32msvc-sdl-config  prefix to your selected CROSSPATH
  make cross
  ln -s CROSSPATH/bin/i386-mingw32msvc-sdl-config CROSSPREFIX/bin/sdl-config
  cp bin/*.dll to enigma/etc

SDL_ttf-devel-2.0.9-VC8.zip, SDL_mixer-devel-1.2.8-VC8.zip, SDL_image-devel-1.2.6-VC8.zip
  extract
  cp includes to CROSSPATH/include/SDL
  cp lib/*.lib to CROSSPATH/lib
  cp lib/*.dll to enigma/etc

zlib-1.2.3-lib.zip
  extract
  cp includes to CROSSPATH/include
  cp lib/libz.dll.a to CROSSPATH/lib 

curl

xerces-c
  cp etc/xerces-mingw-config.sh to base directory of xerces-c
  edit xerces-mingw-config.sh - add your CROSSPREFIX/bin to PATH, 
    use your TARGET as commandprefix
  execute "xerces-mingw-config.sh --prefix=CROSSPATH --disable-transcoder-icu --disable-netaccessor-curl
  PATH=CROSSPREFIX/bin:$PATH (the path defined at the beginning!)
  make
  make install (as root with PATH=CROSSPREFIX/bin:$PATH)

libpng, curl
  build, install like xerces
  cp libpng12.dll to enigma/etc

enigma
  export ENIGMADEVDLLS="SDL SDL_image SDL_mixer SDL_ttf jpeg libpng13 zlib"
  export ENIGMADEVCROSSPREFIX=CROSSPREFIX (the path defined at the beginning!)
  ./autogen.sh
  cd etc
  ./mingw32-configure.sh
  ./mingw32-dist.sh
  install etc/enigma.zip on Windows
