These scripts try to download and install a Windows/mingw32 build
|
|
environment for GnuCash on Windows.
|
|
|
|
For cross-compiling the windows executable on Linux, see the lower
|
|
section of this file.
|
|
|
|
Before you start with the automated build, you have to complete these
|
|
steps manually. The directory variables are set in `defaults.sh' and optionally
|
|
`custom.sh'.
|
|
|
|
* Download MSYS (but *only* msys; no mingw and no msysdtk)
|
|
from http://www.mingw.org/download.shtml -> Current -> MSYS -> (bin, *.exe)
|
|
to $DOWNLOAD_DIR
|
|
|
|
* Install MSYS (no postinstall)
|
|
to $MSYS_DIR
|
|
|
|
* Download wget
|
|
from http://www.mingw.org/download.shtml -> Current -> mingwPORT -> (bin, wget-*)
|
|
to $DOWNLOAD_DIR
|
|
|
|
* Look at defaults.sh and create a file named custom.sh to specify adapted directory
|
|
variables. If you want verbose output of any script
|
|
step, add "set -x" to that file.
|
|
|
|
* Either, download Qt from http://www.trolltech.com/developer/downloads/qt/windows,
|
|
install it and set QTDIR in custom.sh, like "QTDIR=/c/Qt/4.2.3"; or skip building
|
|
the AqBanking Setup Wizard by specifying "AQBANKING_WITH_QT=no".
|
|
|
|
Start/Enter any MSYS shell window. Let the automated build begin by:
|
|
|
|
$INSTALLER_DIR/install.sh
|
|
|
|
Good luck!
|
|
|
|
To generate a self-installing setup.exe file that contains
|
|
*everything*, run the following command after install.sh has
|
|
completed:
|
|
|
|
$INSTALLER_DIR/dist.sh
|
|
|

--------------------------
|
|
|
|
Cross-compiling a Windows/mingw32 executable of GnuCash on a Linux
|
|
host system. (Note: This used to work unchangedly in Sept'2006 but
|
|
probably not any longer.)
|
|
|
|
These steps need to be performed:
|
|
|
|
1. Edit the file create_cross_mingw.sh and set the PREFIX= variable to
|
|
the preferred prefix of the mingw32 gcc/binutils on your
|
|
Linux. (It is strongly recommended to choose a different prefix
|
|
than your normal compiler toolchain in order to distinguish
|
|
your native vs. cross compiler more easily.) Then run the
|
|
script create_cross_mingw.sh - it will
|
|
download, compile, and install a mingw32 toolchain.
|
|
|
|
2. Edit the file defaults.sh: Make a global search-and-replace of
|
|
'\\' into '/' so that all directories are specified in unix
|
|
conventions. Set the variable cross_compile to "yes". Then
|
|
adjust the directories in defaults.sh according to your
|
|
preferred installation, especially $GLOBAL_DIR.
|
|
|
|
3. Download a binary windows packages for "guile" e.g. from
|
|
http://www.tu-harburg.de/~et2cs/gnc/ and unpack it into the
|
|
directory $GUILE_DIR as given in defaults.sh. (This is done because
|
|
the build system for guile doesn't support cross-compiling.)
|
|
|
|
4. Call install.sh, which will read the directory settings from
|
|
defaults.sh. It should download, compile, and install everything
|
|
automatically. Eventually the windows gnucash is installed into
|
|
$GNUCASH_DIR.
|
|
|
|
5. The content of $GNUCASH_DIR (as well as all the other binary
|
|
packages) should then be copied to a windows machine. The paths
|
|
in $GNUCASH_DIR/bin/gnucash and/or $GNUCASH_DIR/bin/gnucash.cmd
|
|
need to be adjusted for the installation location on the
|
|
windows machine.
|
|
|
|
Good luck!
