compiling harbour x64

[m.asur]

Hi, i'm almost new to harbour and to gcc, i try to compile harbour with this settings:

Building Harbour 3.2.0dev from source - https://harbour.github.io
MAKE: mingw32-make 4.3 sh.exe   
HB_USER_CFLAGS: -D__USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO=0 -DHB_OPENSSL_STATIC
HB_INSTALL_PREFIX: E:\MgM64\comp\harbour
HB_BUILD_SHARED: no
HB_BUILD_DEBUG: no
HB_BUILD_STRIP: no
HB_BUILD_OPTIM: yes
HB_HOST_PLAT: win (x86_64)  HB_SHELL: nt
HB_PLATFORM: win (x86_64) (auto-detected)
HB_COMPILER: mingw64 (auto-detected: E:/MgM64/comp/mingw64/bin/)

mingw32 version is 10.2, i download curl-7.74.0_2-win64-mingw.zip and openssl-1.1.1i_2-win64-mingw.zip to include contrib packages hbssl and hbcurl

but there're many errors in building harbour.

if i don't set -DHB_OPENSSL_STATIC there're errors becouse harbour can't include "openssl/applink.c", if i don't set HB_BUILD_CONTRIB_DYN=no there're errors in linking of dynamic libs, e.g. hbssl-32-x64.dll cannot find -lssl and cannot find -lcrypto, the same for hbcurl.

What are the correct settings for compiling harbour and contribs in x64 with mingw?

Thanks and forgive my bad english!

Why to build harbour ? Try harbour's Mel Smith distribution

[m.asur]

Hi,

i simply download core-master.zip from https://github.com/harbour/core, use mingw32 from http://winlibs.com/ (winlibs-x86_64-posix-seh-gcc-10.2.0-mingw-w64-8.0.0-r5.7z), openssl and curl from https://curl.se/windows/, i've unzip everything and 'ming32-make' from the root of core-master.zip archive.

It's something wrong? Pls help!

You can try this methos. It's based on hbenrico:

1. install a fresh new MSYS2 environment from here -> https://www.msys2.org/ (in my case, the 64bit version) 

2. in MSYS2 shell:

pacman -Syu

reopen ten:

pacman -Su

reopen then:

pacman -S base-devel msys2-devel mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain upx p7zip

3. exit MSYS2 

now mingw is 10.2

4. copy/move c:\msys64 as c:\newhb\msys64

5. get harbour source from https://github.com/harbour/core/archive/master.zip

6. uncompress harbour master zip (as c:\new\hb\core-master) 

I got the following directory structure: 

c:\NEWHB\msys64 

c:\NEWHB\core-master 

7. run cmd

cd c:\newhb

run these comands

set PATH=c:\NEWHB\msys64\mingw64\bin;c:\NEWHB\msys64\usr\bin;%PATH%

set HB_BUILD_SHARED=yes

set HB_INSTALL_PREFIX=c:\NEWHB\hb32

set HB_WITH_MINIZIP=local

set HB_WITH_MINILZO=local

set HB_WITH_ALLEGRO=no

set HB_WITH_CAIRO=no

set HB_BUILD_3RDEXT=no

set HB_BUILD_VERBOSE=yes

set HB_IMPLIB=yes

set HB_BUILD_DYN=no

set HB_BUILD_CONTRIB_DYN=no

set HB_BUILD_SHARED=no

set HB_BUILD_STRIP=all

set HB_WITH_ZLIB=local

set HB_WITH_BZIP2=local

set HB_WITH_MXML=local

set HB_WITH_LZF=local

:: set HB_WITH_CURL=c:\NEWHB\curl\include

set HB_WITH_CURL=yes

set HB_WITH_OPENSSL=yes

set HB_STATIC_CURL=yes

set HB_STATIC_OPENSSL=yes

cd core-master

mingw32-make clean install

8. after a while Harbour x64 should be in c:\newhb\hb32_64

[m.asur]

Before all, thank for your reply.

I tried building with msys2, but msys2 installation is very big and sure if i set 

set HB_BUILD_DYN=no

set HB_BUILD_CONTRIB_DYN=no

the building process success, but i think is not standard, and what's about openssl and curl? If i use the latest versions there are problems in linking with new libraries name in x64 environment...

so i tried harbour version 3.4 but there are many other errors: so, what's the right / standard way?

In harbour's Mel Smith distribution for x64 there are lots of libriaries and dll, how he make that builds?

Magic & Luck and many batch files :))

Hi m.asur

I use this method because (i think..) i need openssl, so it's compiled.

Can u post some function names you use from these libs, so I can check on my setup if they are available...

[Miroslav Georgiev]

I have problems with Mel's build .. I think. Openssl/curl is missing from his binaries. Am I right?

Check my workflows here:

Actions · JoseQuintas/hbpack (github.com)

Harbour 3.2 build with error using mingw 7.3

Harbour 3.2 build ok using mingw 10.2 but get errors to compile some extra libraries

Harbour 3.4 ok with mingw 7.3, mingw 10.2, and all libraries

I do not create optional libraries

I am running all again now after some changes.

Harbour 3.2 official, Harbour 3.4 with little changes to work with extra libraries (HMG, HMG Extended, HWGUI, OOHG).

It is a test work, may be deleted at any time.

May be anybody could add an official build on Harbour github.

Hi Jose,

Can you share your changes with Harbour 3.4 to work with HWGUI?

Regards,

Mario

[José M. C. Quintas]

I am adjusting all.

You can check on repository, I do not remember what I change, except HBPs/HBCs, and some compatible functions.

I am changing all libraries, to compile using hbmk2 *.hbp and no other file.

In this exact momment, I create a dir *.hbp /s/b > testall.hbp, and use as container to test compile all samples at same time (hmg, hmg extended, hwgui and oohg).

on hwgui: Commits · JoseQuintas/hwgui (github.com)

on harbour 3.4: harbour-34/contrib/hbobsolete at master · JoseQuintas/harbour-34 (github.com)

On same group you will found hmg and hmg extended.

and on actions of hbpack: Actions · JoseQuintas/hbpack (github.com)

you can found process about compile harbour and all libraries using hb 3.2, hb 3.4, mingw 7.3 and mingw 10.2

github saves all screens to view when needed, with error or not.

build using harbour 3.4 + mingw 7.3 is here: 2320 · JoseQuintas/hbpack@935b93b (github.com)

[José M. C. Quintas]

But I use official version and no problem too.

You will need only by-pass functions, except for win_p2n(() and win_n2p() (do not remember if hwgui need this too, because I adjust all libraries at same time).

Some examples:

FUNCTION hb_CallDll32(...); RETURN hb_CallDll(...)

FUNCTION hb_OsNewLine(); RETURN hb_Eol()

About win_p2n() and win_n2p(), there are note on changelog about where to found them, a direct link to source-code.

I do not end to recompe all samples.

A common thing on libraries is about resource: mingw can't compile resource with screens.

This kind of resource need to be compiled with another tool, from RC to RES.

After this, ok with mingw.

RC is valid, RES is valid, but RC with specific windows resources no.

like this one

[m.asur]

I thinked that in open source projects there are no secrets...

Why thereisn't some document that show the way to build harbour with libraries and the most importants (curl and openssl) contribs?
I can't believe that!
Of course i'm not expert in gcc and developing tools, but Isn't it the spirit of open source to make everyone grow, for greater awareness, or do we fall back into the contradictions of closed source projects?

[Miroslav Georgiev]

I also found difficult to compile Harbour myself. Unfortunately binaries at https://sourceforge.net/projects/harbour-project/files/ are 32-bit only ;(

Where you download MinGW 10.2 from?

[m.asur]

I use mingw32 from http://winlibs.com/ (winlibs-x86_64-posix-seh-gcc-10.2.0-mingw-w64-8.0.0-r5.7z).

[Miroslav Georgiev]

what libs are missing. these?

lib\win\mingw64\libhbssl.a

lib\win\mingw64\libhbssls.a  

lib\win\mingw64\liblibssl-1_1-x64.a

lib\win\mingw64\libhbcurl.a

lib\win\mingw64\libhbcurls.a
