+Compiling using the makefiles:
+
+0. If downloading from CVS, copy include\wx\msw\setup0.h to
+ include\wx\setup.h.
+1. Make sure your WXWIN variable is set [e.g add
+ set WXWIN=c:\wxwindows
+ to your autoexec.bat file], and that it uses the FAT (short
+ name) form with no spaces.
+ Make sure your BCCDIR variable is set [e.g add
+ set BCCDIR=c:\progra~1\borland\bcc
+ to your autoexec.bat file], and that it points to the root directory of
+ your Borland C++ installation, and it uses the FAT (short
+ name) form with no spaces.
+ Reboot if needed for the changes to autoexec.bat to take effect.
+2. Change directory to wx\src\msw. Type 'make -f makefile.b32' to
+ make the wxWindows core library. Ignore the warnings about
+ 'XXX' not found in library.
+3. Change directory to a sample or demo such as samples\minimal, and type
+ 'make -f makefile.b32'.
+4. For release versions, recompile wxWindows and samples using
+ 'make -f makefile.b32 clean'
+ 'make -f makefile.b32 FINAL=1'
+ for the library and samples.
+5. To make and use wxWindows as a DLL, type
+ 'make -f makefile.b32 clean'
+ 'make -f makefile.b32 DLL=1'
+ and then for each sample,
+ 'make -f makefile.b32 WXUSINGDLL=1'
+ Please note that the samples have not been exhaustively tested
+ with this configuration.
+
+Note (1): the wxWindows library and (some) samples compile in 16-bit mode
+using makefile.bcc, but at present the wxWindows resource system is switched
+off in this mode. See issues.txt for details.
+
+Note (2): unfortunately most samples won't link in 16-bit mode,
+because the automatic data segment exceeds 64K. The minimal
+sample links and runs, however.
+
+Note (3): the wxWindows makefiles assume byte structure alignment. Please
+make sure that your own project or makefile settings use the
+same alignment, or you could experience mysterious crashes. To
+change the alignment, add a suitable option to the $(CFG) target code
+in src/msw/makefile.b32.
+
+Note (4): if you get undefined _SQL... symbols at link time,
+either install odbc32.lib from the BC++ CD-ROM into your BC++ lib
+directory, or set wxUSE_ODBC to 0 in include\wx\msw\setup.h and
+recompile wxWindows. The same applies if compiling using the IDE.
+
+Note (5): BC++ 4.5 (not 5.0) trips up over jdmerge.c in the JPEG folder;
+you will therefore need to set wxUSE_LIBJPEG to 0 in setup.h and remove
+the jpeg target from src\msw\makefile.b32, and remove jpeg from
+src\makeprog.b32.
+
+Note (6): [obsolete]
+
+Note (7): If you wish debug messages to be sent to the console in
+debug mode, edit src\makeb32.env and change /aa to /Tpe in
+LINK_FLAGS.
+
+Compiling using the IDE files: [Borland C++ 5.0, not Cbuilder]
+
+1. Load src\bc32.ide (Release settings)
+2. Go to Options|Project... and specify the correct BC++ include and lib path for
+ your file structure.
+3. Press F9 to compile the wxWindows library.
+4. Load samples\bc32.ide.
+5. Go to Options|Project... and specify the correct BC++ include and lib path for
+ your file structure.
+6. Press F9 to compile the samples (build each node separately if
+ you prefer, by right clicking and choose Build Node).
+7. Run each sample: you may need to run from each sample's directory
+ since some (notably the wxHTML samples) look for files
+ relative to the working directory.
+
+Note (1): the samples project file contains a selection of
+samples, and not all samples. The remaining samples can be made
+with the makefiles. See also the demos hierarchy which doesn't
+have any BC++ project files yet.
+
+Note (2): to make the png, zlib, jpeg and tiff libraries (needed for
+some samples) you need to compile them with bc32.ide.
+
+Note (3): the debug version of the wxWindows library is about 40 MB, and the
+release version is around 5 MB.
+
+See also the file docs/tech/tn0007.txt for further instructions and details
+of how to create your own project files.
+
+** REMEMBER **
+
+In all of your wxWindows applications, your source code should include
+the following preprocessor directive:
+
+#ifdef __BORLANDC__
+#pragma hdrstop
+#endif
+
+(check the samples -- e.g., \wx2\samples\minimal\minimal.cpp -- for
+more details)
+
+Borland C++Builder IDE compilation
+------------------------------
+
+1. Build the wxWindows libraries using the Borland make utility as
+ specified in the section called "Borland C++ 4.5/5.0 compilation"
+ above. (C++ Builder includes a stand-alone C++ compiler. For example,
+ C++ Builder 4.0 comes with C++ 5.4.)
+
+2. You can build samples using the makefiles as per the
+ instructions for BC++ above, or you can follow the instructions
+ in docs/tech/tn0004.htm or http://biolpc22.york.ac.uk/wx/bc/ide.html.
+ You can use the process_sample_bcb.bat command which is in
+ wxwindows\distrib\msw to generate a .mak or .bpr file for most of the
+ samples [mak for Cbuilder 1-3; bpr for v4]. Execute this in the sample
+ directory, passing the name of the cpp files on the command line.
+
+Watcom C++ 10.6/11 compilation
+---------------------------
+
+1. Make sure your WXWIN variable is set, and uses the DOS short
+ name form.
+2. Change directory to wx\src\msw. Type 'wmake -f makefile.wat all' to
projects / wxWidgets.git / blobdiff
