sigrok-gui on Windows

TODO: This page is outdated and not correct. This will be fixed soon!

This page describes how to build sigrok on Windows.

Requirements

• TortoiseGit (to get the source code)
• MinGW MSYS (for building the library and command-line tool)
• Qt + Qt Creator >= 4.5 (for building/editing the GUI)
• libusb
• libglib

Building

Get the source code:

$ git clone git://sigrok.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/sigrok/sigrok (or use TortoiseGit)
$ cd sigrok

Make a local copy of some libusb files (we assume you already installed libusb into c:\Program Files):

$ cp /c/Program\ Files/LibUSB-Win32/lib/gcc/libusb.a lib
$ cp /c/Program\ Files/LibUSB-Win32/include/usb.h include

Build the library:

$ make lib

Build the command-line tool:

$ make cli

Build the GUI:

• First, you need to copy some files into the gui/debug folder:

$ cd gui
$ /c/Qt/2010.01/qt/bin/qmake.exe
$ cd debug
$ cp /c/Qt/2010.01/qt/bin/libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll .
$ cp /c/Qt/2010.01/qt/bin/QtCored4.dll .
$ cp /c/Qt/2010.01/qt/bin/QtGui4.dll .
$ cp ../../lib/libsigrok.so .

• In a file explorer, double-click the sigrok-gui.pro file in the gui/ directory, which should open the project in Qt Creator.
• Build and run the project.
