loudmouth on Windows

[Mikki]

Hi,
I've made a package for windows based on Siraj's loudmouth-cmake
project (http://github.com/siraj/loudmouthcmake/tree/master).
It's located here: http://loudmouth-dev.googlegroups.com/web/loudmouth-1.4.3-win.zip

Zip contains *.lib, *.pdb and *.dll file for either 32-bit and 64-bit
Windows.

However, I think there aren't all functions included.

Building from source on Windows is quite difficult, so if someone
succeded building it using gcc it would be nice to put it here.

I can`t download archive. Google respond what requested page not exist.

HI,

check : http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/wiki/Windows you can get the
whole thing to build on windows using cmake.. I'll be happy to hear
some feedback :)

Bye

HI Mikki.

You can ge the latest changes from http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/wiki/Windows
instructions. it should be very simple to build this under windows and
get it to work if you follow the instructions on that wiki :)

Bye

Hi Siraj,

I've builded that package using your instructions using Visual C, but
I couldn't build using gcc.

The main goal of mine's zip was to give loudmouth "out of the box",
without compiling etc.

Did you tried to build on windows loudmouth 1.5.0?

Hi Siraj,

From the Page you had mentioned.
http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/wiki/Windows

Building Loudmouth on Windows

* git clone git://git.collabora.co.uk/git/user/siraj/loudmouth_stable.git
* git checkout -b cmake origin/cmake
* cmake -G "NMake Makefiles" -DOPENSSL_PREFIX=<?> -
DLIB_TYPE=STATIC -DCMAKE_PREFIX=c:\unix2\deps ..
* nmake
* nmake install
* if you need .dll files pass something like -DLIB_TYPE=SHARED
instead of STATIC after this you will get libloudmoth.dll


What does -DCMAKE_PREFIX=c:\unix2\deps .. mean?

Is this the dependencies folder.?

And also how to let cmake know the include directories Because when i
do a "nmake" it throws compilation error for missing glib.h


Thanks,
Mathi.

Yicks .. that's a typo . that should have be -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<should_point_to_where_you_installed_glib_for_windows>
c:\unix\deps\ is where I have my gib installed
remember to give the prefix. so glib.h would be in
c:\unix\deps\include\glib-2.0\ ... and you only give the prefix
c:\unix\deps\

I tried both, cygwin and mingw+msys and something isn't working :/
maybe because I have Vista 64-bit or something....
However, if someone succeded building it, I would be greatfull if he
puts results (dll and lib) here.

Hi Siraj,

Thanks. I was able to build using

git://github.com/siraj/loudmouthcmake.git

I excluded asyncns.c when compiling the static library. (due to lots
of compilation errors). I am yet to test the library.

Uploaded the static library
http://www.geocities.com/mathiisalive/LM.zip

I was also able to build a DLL but when i analyzed the dll with DLL
Viewer, i didn't see any exported functions.

I guess we need to have some more changes for building a Dll.
Like DllMain() Function etc.

Thanks,
Mathi.


Thanks,
Mathi.

HI Mattri.

At this point I still recommend you build the binaries with Visual
studio using nmake or the IDE. with the instructions on the wiki..etc.
since we have tested this on xp and vista and loudmouth actually works
ok.

Funny, I viewed my dll with visual studio and ddl Export Viewer and it
also didn't show any functions, however programs with this dll work.
