ircDDB Gateway - 20180627
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
Windows
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
To use the ircDDB Gateway software you will first need to build the latest
|
|
version of wxWidgets (http://www.wxwidgets.org), the version I used was 3.0.4.
|
|
I also installed it in the default location which is C:\wxWidgets-3.0.4.
|
|
|
|
For compiling I use Visual C++ 2017 Community Edition downloaded from Microsoft
|
|
for free. I recommend that you use the same.
|
|
|
|
To build wxWidgets, you simply need to open Visual Studio 2017 using the File ->
|
|
Open -> Projects/Solutions and load the wx_vc12.sln file to be found in
|
|
wxWidgets-3.0.4\build\msw directory and then go into Batch Build and select the
|
|
DLL Debug and DLL Release entries for every one, this take a little time! Then
|
|
build them.
|
|
|
|
The path names for wxWidgets are embedded within the Solution and Project
|
|
preferences, and will need changing if anything other than these default
|
|
locations are used. The first pass through the compiler will no doubt tell
|
|
you all that you need to know if there are problems.
|
|
|
|
Once you have built the executables, you will need to copy the correct wxWidgets
|
|
files to the same location as the executables. For 32-bit systems these are
|
|
wxbase30u_vc_custom.dll, wxmsw30u_adv_vc_custom.dll, and
|
|
wxmsw30u_core_vc_custom.dll. On 64-bit systems you'll need
|
|
wxbase30u_vc_x64_custom.dll, wxmsw30u_adv_vc_x64_custom.dll, and
|
|
wxmsw30u_core_vc_x64_custom.dll
|
|
|
|
If you are running in debug mode then the required wxWidgets files have the names
|
|
xxx30ud_xxxx instead. These can be found in the wxWidgets-3.0.4\lib\vc_dll
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
It is also probable that you'll need to install a copy of the latest Visual C++
|
|
run-time libraries from Microsoft, if you are not running the gateway software
|
|
on the same machine as the development/compilation was done on. You can find the
|
|
latest versions at https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads
|
|
|
|
|
|
Linux
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
You need to ensure that wxGTK is already installed on your machine, under
|
|
Ubuntu these are available from the standard repositories, the version of
|
|
wxWidgets is adequate.
|
|
|
|
To install them from scratch, you need to get wxGTK from
|
|
<http://www.wxwidgets.org>. If you do a "make install" on it then they'll
|
|
be installed in the right places and nothing more needs to be done.
|
|
|
|
To actually build the software, type "make" in the same directory as this file
|
|
and all should build without errors, there may be a warning or two though. Once
|
|
compiled log in as root or use the sudo command, and do "make install".
