Compiling LyX 2.0 for Win32
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
It's recommended to compile LyX using Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 and CMake.
|
|
Pre-compiled packages with dependencies are provided for this environment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Compiling with Microsoft Visual C++
|
|
===================================
|
|
|
|
These instructions assume the LyX source code is installed in C:\LyX\lyx-20
|
|
You can also use another directory if you prefer.
|
|
|
|
1 Install MSVC 2010
|
|
|
|
If you don't have Visual C++ 2010 installed, get the free Express edition from
|
|
http://www.microsoft.com/express/Downloads/
|
|
|
|
2 Compile Qt
|
|
|
|
Download the latest Qt everywhere open source version from
|
|
http://get.qt.nokia.com/qt/source/ (e.g. qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.1.zip).
|
|
Follow the instructions on http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/install-win.html to
|
|
compile using MSVC 2010.
|
|
The pre-compiled version of Qt cannot be used. It uses the 2008 version of the
|
|
MSVC runtime which will result in crashes.
|
|
|
|
3 Install Python
|
|
|
|
Install the latest Python 2.x version from
|
|
http://www.python.org/download/
|
|
|
|
4 Install CMake
|
|
|
|
Install the latest CMake from http://www.cmake.org
|
|
|
|
5 Configure
|
|
|
|
- Run the CMake GUI.
|
|
|
|
- Set the source code path to C:\LyX\lyx-20\development\cmake
|
|
Set the build path to C:\LyX\lyx-20-build
|
|
Click Configure and set the generator to Visual Studio 10.
|
|
|
|
- Enable LYX_DEPENDENCIES_DOWNLOAD and click Configure.
|
|
Pre-compiled dependencies will automatically be downloaded.
|
|
|
|
- Set QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE to e.g.
|
|
C:\Qt\qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.1\bin\qmake.exe
|
|
and Configure again.
|
|
|
|
- Enable the LYX_INSTALL option, set CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to
|
|
C:\LyX\lyx-20-install and click Configure.
|
|
|
|
- Check the Advanced checkbox.
|
|
Set GETTEXT_MSGFMT_EXECUTABLE to
|
|
C:\LyX\lyx-20-build\msvc2010-deps\deps20\gettext-tools\msgfmt.exe,
|
|
and do the same for the other gettext tools.
|
|
|
|
- Click Generate.
|
|
|
|
6 Compile
|
|
|
|
A Microsoft Visual C++ solution should have been generated at
|
|
C:\LyX\lyx-20-build\lyx.sln
|
|
Compile the INSTALL project to get a LyX installation in
|
|
C:\LyX\lyx-20-install
|
|
|
|
7 Copy dependencies
|
|
|
|
Copy
|
|
- C:\LyX\lyx-20-build\msvc2010-deps\deps20\bin
|
|
- C:\LyX\lyx-20-build\msvc2010-deps\deps20\imagemagick
|
|
- C:\LyX\lyx-20-build\msvc2010-deps\deps20\python
|
|
- C:\LyX\lyx-20-build\msvc2010-deps\deps20\ghostscript
|
|
- C:\LyX\lyx-20-build\msvc2010-deps\deps20\Resources
|
|
to C:\LyX\lyx-20-install
|
|
|
|
And copy from the Qt bin directory
|
|
(e.g. C:\Qt\qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.1\bin)
|
|
QtCore4.dll
|
|
QtGui4.dll
|
|
QtCore4d.dll (if compiling Debug version)
|
|
QtGui4d.dll (if compiling Debug version)
|
|
to C:\LyX\lyx-20-install\bin
|
|
|
|
8 Define path prefix
|
|
|
|
Add the following line to C:\LyX\lyx-20-install\Resources\lyxrc.dist,
|
|
so LyX will find the bundled tools such as Python, ImageMagick
|
|
and Ghostscript:
|
|
|
|
\path_prefix "$LyXDir\bin;$LyXDir\python;$LyXDir\imagemagick;$LyXDir\ghostscript"
|
|
|
|
You may also add the location of your LaTeX installation if it's not on the
|
|
system PATH, and the location of JabRef.
|
|
|
|
9 Start LyX
|
|
|
|
C:\LyX\lyx-20-install\bin\lyx.exe
|
|
|
|
|
|
Creating the Installer
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
The installer for LyX 2.0 is currently being developed.
