How do you compile Gem on W32?
Up to Table of ContentsThis FAQ applies to: 0.92.0
I want to compile Gem myself on a W32 system. How do I do that?
Building on W32 is a pain.
I happen to have a buildsystem running and try not to touch it, in case it breaks and i cannot create one again...
Visual Studio 2003
setup for building Gem-0.92
- AMD64 laptop running XP (sp3 i think)
- GemLibs: later check which version / incarnation
- compiled using the project for Visual Studio 2003 (see
build/win-vs2003) - installer is compiled using NSIS (
build/win-nsis)
autoconf
in theory it should be possible to build Gem using autoconf on W32 using msys/cygwin
problems probably occur, due to the use of DirectShow for grabbing/decoding
