Win32 builds
------------
Windows 32 and 64 bit builds
============================
MinGW
=====
MinGW-w64
---------
For DLLs compatible with MSVC++ cross-compiled from Linux with MinGW, see
the build-win32.sh script in the scripts/ directory and its companion README
file.
Despite the new name, MinGW-w64 will build binaries for MS Windows 32 bit (x86)
and 64 bit (x64) architectures. The project is hosted at
https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/ and the Wiki is at
https://sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64/wiki2/Home/
For DLLs compatible with MSVC++ cross-compiled from Linux with MinGW, see the
build-win32.sh or build-w64.sh shell scripts in the scripts/ directory and the
companion README.build-Windows file. The top of each script contains comments
about dependencies and have environment variables that can be tailored to your
system.
Upon completion the scripts generate a .ZIP file suitable to be installed on an
MS Windows system. Besides the compiled binary files, the scripts include the
Hamlib manual pages converted to HTML format and other files converted to cr/lf
line endings. Also included are the C header files, files that can be used by
MinGW on Windows, and a .DEF file that can be used by MSVC++ to generate its
.LIB file. A README file is generated and included in the archive that has
greater detail.
The following may be outdated. Feedback on current commands/process is welcome.
