- LIBXML2 build system for Win32 README
- -------------------------------------
- In this folder are stored all the files required to compile LIBXML2 with win32 compilers.
- Bakefile (http://bakefile.sourceforge.net) is used as makefile generator.
- Supported makefiles:
- - makefile.vc for Microsoft NMAKE
- - makefile.bcc for Borland MAKE
- - makefile.wat for OpenWatcom MAKE
- - makefile.gcc for MinGW MINGW32-MAKE
- - all DSP & DSW for Microsoft VisualC++ 6.0 (can be used also with VS.NET AFAIK)
- This readme is organized as:
- 1.0 HOWTO compile LIBXML2 using makefiles <-- for users who want to build the library using *command-line*
- 1.1 HOWTO compile LIBXML2 using an IDE <-- for users who want to build the library using an *IDE*
- 1.2 HOWTO regenerate makefiles for LIBXML2 <-- for libxml2 mantainers/developers/advanced users
- If you just want to compile the library (and the test programs) you should definitely avoid the
- section 1.1 and focus on the 1.0.
-
- 1.0 HOWTO compile LIBXML2 using makefiles
- -----------------------------------------
-
- Choose your preferred compiler among those actually supported (see above) and then run
-
- mycompilermake -fmakefile.makefileext [options]
- for a full list of the available options you should open with a notepad (or something like that)
- the makefile you want to use; at the beginning you should see a section which starts as:
- # -------------------------------------------------------------------------
- # These are configurable options:
- # -------------------------------------------------------------------------
- here you can find all the options actually used by that makefile.
- They can be customized when running the makefile writing something like:
- nmake -fmakefile.vc BUILD=release
- mingw32-make -fmakefile.gcc BUILD=debug ICONV_DIR=c:\myiconv
- or they can be permanently changed modifying the makefile.
- That's all: for any problem/compile-error/suggestion, write to
- frm@users.sourceforge.net with the word "libxml2" in the subject.
- 1.1 HOWTO compile LIBXML2 using an IDE
- --------------------------------------
-
- Actually only the Microsoft VisualC++ 6.0 project files are generated.
- In future other Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) will be supported as well.
-
- With MSVC++ 6.0, you should open the DSW file and then set as the active project the
- "libxml2" project, if you want to build the library or one of the test projects if you
- want to run them.
- Using the command "Build->Set Active Configuration" you can choose one of the predefined
- configuration.
- 1.2 HOWTO regenerate makefiles for LIBXML2
- ------------------------------------------
-
- Be sure to have installed Bakefile (http://bakefile.sourceforge.net).
- Just run the "bakefile_gen" command inside the folder containing the "libxml2.bkl" file.
- NOTE: if you want to remove all the makefiles, you can use the "bakefile_gen -c" command.
-
- The template files used to generate all makefiles are only two:
- - libxml2.bkl (the main one)
- - Bakefiles.bkgen
- All the other files can be dinamically regenerated.
- If you have problems with the compilation of LIBXML2 under windows (using one of the supported compiler)
- please write to:
- Francesco Montorsi <frm@users.sourceforge.net>
