Compiling on Windows

[Angus Lau]

Hi there,

I am having trouble building on a Windows machine. I am using the Windows VS2013 instructions (https://github.com/gadgetron/gadgetron/wiki/Windows-Installation-VS2013) on a machine with a GPU.

I've attached the full output of running compile_gadgetron.bat, which I get by running

1. compile_ismrmrd.bat (compiles fine)
2. compile_gadgetron.bat


The output of the msbuild step is long but the final errors are:

         c:\gadgetron\projects\gadgetron\toolboxes\nfft\gpu\cuNFFT.h(276): warning : field of class type without a DLL interface used in a class with a DLL interface [C:\gadgetron\projects\compiling\gadgetron\toolboxes\nfft\gpu\gadgetron_toolbox_gpunfft.vcxproj]

The output of the cmake step is below.

For some reason it can't find GTEST_ROOT (even though the environment variable is set). Also cmake can't find BLAS and LAPACK (even though it finds MKL) -- if I add "-DLAPACK_LIBRARIES=%MKLROOT_PATH%/mkl/lib/intel64" "-DBLAS_LIBRARIES=%MKLROOT_PATH%/mkl/lib/intel64" to COMPILING_OPTIONS in gadgetron_windows_setup it finds them but the compilation still fails in the same way.

I'm not sure what other logs would be helpful so if there is anything else please let me know.

Thanks very much,

Are you on Windows 8? Looks like it. At least you have the Windows 8 SDK in your path and some stuff is being included from it. 

If so, this is an untested (by us) configuration. That does not mean that it can't work, but (like all things Windows) it almost certainly will not work out of the box. 

I don't have a system that I can test this on, so I will have to rely on somebody else out there who has tried this.

It's on Windows 7 (SP1), if that helps anyone who replies later.

[Michael Hansen]

I am wondering why your Windows 8 SDK is being included in the build. That is a bit strange. 

[Angus Lau]

It's weird, I agree. I'm not sure why at the moment.

Adding the following lines to CMakeLists.txt inside the root gadgetron source directory seems to complete the compilation. I copied them from the CMakeLists.txt file inside  toolboxes/mri/pmri/gpu.

if (WIN32)
  ADD_DEFINITIONS(-DWIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN)
endif (WIN32)

The hello world example works, but I will test more. It would be good to know if this is what others have arrived at too (and whether it will break something later).

Seems similar to one of the solutions here: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/391375/-quot-identifier-quot-iunknown-quot-is-undefined-quot-error-vista-visual-studio-2005/

[Michael Hansen]

Thanks. We may have to add this more broadly to the GPU code. 

Let us know how you get on with the testing and if you find some general settings, please submit a pull request on github, so that we can merge it in.
