Compiling LyX 1.5 for Win32
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
LyX 1.5 can be compiled with Microsoft Visual C++ 2005.
|
|
|
|
Compiling
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
1 Install MSVC 2005
|
|
|
|
If you don't have MSVC 2005 installed, download and install the free
|
|
Express edition from http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/
|
|
|
|
2 Install the Windows Platform SDK
|
|
|
|
see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/usingpsdk/
|
|
(You don't need to install the IIS, MDAC, and Tablet PC SDK that are
|
|
delivered with the Platform SDK.)
|
|
|
|
3 configure MSVC
|
|
|
|
Follow exactly the steps of
|
|
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/usingpsdk/
|
|
In Step 3 follow also the things noted as alternative.
|
|
(If you later get an error message that "windows.h" cannot be found,
|
|
create the global Windows environment variables "INCLUDE" and "LIB".
|
|
INCLUDE contains the paths to the "include" folders of the installed
|
|
platform SDK and of MSVC. LIB contains the corresponding "lib" folders.)
|
|
|
|
4 Install Python
|
|
|
|
Get the latest Python 2.5 version at
|
|
http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.5/
|
|
|
|
Install in C:\Python25 and add this directory to the PATH environment
|
|
variable (Start > Settings > Control Panel > System > Advanced >
|
|
Environment Variables).
|
|
|
|
5 Install SCons
|
|
|
|
Download and install SCons 0.96.92 (or newer but not 0.96.1) from http://www.scons.org/download.php
|
|
|
|
6 Install the dependencies
|
|
|
|
Download ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/contrib/lyx-windows-deps-msvc-qt4.zip
|
|
and extract in the root directory of your LyX files (so you will get
|
|
a directory called lyx-windows-deps-msvc next to the other directories
|
|
like src, development etc.).
|
|
|
|
7 Compile
|
|
|
|
From MS Visual Studio command prompt (not the regular cmd.exe),
|
|
run development\Win32\packaging\build_msvc.bat
|
|
|
|
8 First start of LyX
|
|
|
|
To start the just compiled lyx.exe, it is necessary to copy the following
|
|
files to the folder where the just compiled "lyx.exe" is:
|
|
|
|
Aiksaurus.dll
|
|
aspell.dll
|
|
iconv.dll
|
|
intl.dll
|
|
QtCore4.dll
|
|
QtGui4.dll
|
|
(If the files are not on your system, you can download them from
|
|
http://wiki.lyx.org/uploads/DevelTools/buildLyx/LyXWinBuildDLLs.zip)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Creating the Installer
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
To create an installer with LyX and all related components, download
|
|
and install the latest NSIS from http://nsis.sourceforge.net
|
|
|
|
Open development\Win32\packaging\installer\setttings.user.nsh and modify
|
|
the settings depending on your build environment.
|
|
|
|
Finally, go to development\Win32\packaging\installer
|
|
(in a normal Windows Explorer), right-click on lyx.nsi and click
|
|
"Compile NSIS Script".
