Building i2pd for Windows
|
|
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Requirements for building:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Visual Studio 2013 (tested with VS2013 Update 1, Update 3, and Update 4)
|
|
|
|
* Boost (tested with 1.56, 1.57, and 1.58)
|
|
|
|
* Crypto++ (tested with 5.6.2)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Building Boost (32-bit)
|
|
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Open a Visual Studio x86 command prompt and run the following:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cd C:\path\to\boost\sources
|
|
|
|
bootstrap
|
|
|
|
b2 toolset=msvc-12.0 --build-type=complete --libdir=C:\Boost\lib\Win32 install --with-filesystem --with-program_options --with-regex --with-date_time
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Building Boost (64-bit)
|
|
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Open a Visual Studio x64 command prompt and run the following:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cd C:\path\to\boost\sources
|
|
|
|
bootstrap
|
|
|
|
b2 toolset=msvc-12.0 --build-type=complete --libdir=C:\Boost\lib\x64 architecture=x86 address-model=64 install --with-filesystem --with-program_options --with-regex --with-date_time
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After Boost is compiled, set the environment variable `BOOST` to the directory
|
|
|
|
Boost was installed to. If you followed the instructions outlined here, you
|
|
|
|
should set it to `C:\Boost`. Additionally, set the BOOSTVER variable to the
|
|
|
|
version of Boost that you're using, but instead of a '.' use a '_'. For
|
|
|
|
example, I have `BOOSTVER` set to `1_58`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Building Crypto++
|
|
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Open the crypttest Solution in VS2013
|
|
|
|
* Visual Studio will ask to update the Solution/Project. Allow it.
|
|
|
|
* Build the `cryptopp` project, both the Debug and Release targets and for both
|
|
|
|
Win32 and x64.
|
|
|
|
* Create a folder called `cryptopp` in the crypto++ source directory, then copy
|
|
|
|
the header files to this new directory.
|
|
|
|
* Set the `CRYPTOPP` environment variable pointing to the Crypto++ source directory.
|

Building i2pd
|
|
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Prep work ##
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I strongly advise setting up your own `INCLUDES` and `LIBS` instead of relying
|
|
|
|
on the settings in the i2pd project file. By using your own settings, if the
|
|
|
|
i2pd devs change the paths in the project file, your builds will still work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To do this, create or edit the file
|
|
|
|
`%localappdata%\Microsoft\MSBuild\v4.0\Microsoft.Cpp.Win32.user`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For comparison, my file is reproduced below:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
|
|
|
|
<Project DefaultTargets="Build" ToolsVersion="12.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
|
|
|
|
<ImportGroup Label="PropertySheets">
|
|
|
|
</ImportGroup>
|
|
|
|
<PropertyGroup Label="UserMacros" />
|
|
|
|
<PropertyGroup>
|
|
|
|
<LibraryPath>$(CRYPTOPP)\$(Platform)\Output\$(Configuration);$(BOOST)\lib\$(Platform);$(LibraryPath)</LibraryPath>
|
|
|
|
<IncludePath>$(CRYPTOPP);$(BOOST)\include\boost-$(BOOSTVER);$(IncludePath)</IncludePath>
|
|
|
|
</PropertyGroup>
|
|
|
|
<ItemDefinitionGroup />
|
|
|
|
<ItemGroup />
|
|
|
|
</Project>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to build x64 binaries as well, you'll want to edit or create the
|
|
|
|
file `%localappdata%\Microsoft\MSBuild\v4.0\Microsoft.Cpp.x64.user`. If you
|
|
|
|
followed the steps outlined earlier you can copy (or link) the win32 file to
|
|
|
|
the x64 one.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Anti-Climatic End ##
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After following the above instructions, you'll be able to build Debug Win32,
|
|
|
|
Debug x64, Release Win32, and Release x64 i2pd binaries.
