31MXE setup
32---------
33
404eb356 34First, get the MXE cross-compile environment for MinGW-w64/Windows:
91d4c754
UH
35
36 $ cd $HOME
37 $ git clone https://github.com/mxe/mxe.git mxe-git
38 $ cd mxe-git

40Apply some fixes that are currently required for a proper build:
41
42 $ patch -p1 < mxe_fixes.patch
43
01b17442 44Build all required packages:

46 $ make MXE_TARGETS=i686-w64-mingw32.static.posix \
47 MXE_PLUGIN_DIRS=plugins/examples/qt5-freeze \
3aabe9a9 48 gcc glib libzip libusb1 libftdi1 hidapi glibmm qtbase qtimageformats
f26332cc 49 qtsvg qttranslations boost check gendef qtbase_CONFIGURE_OPTS='-no-sql-mysql'

51This will take a while.

53You can also use "MXE_TARGETS=x86_64-w64-mingw32.static.posix" to build
5464-bit installers instead.

56See http://mxe.cc for details on MXE.

58Note: We're "freezing" the Qt5 version to Qt 5.7.x, since that's the last
59version that supports Windows XP (which we currently still want to support).

62Building
63--------
64
65 $ ./sigrok-cross-mingw
66
67Per default it expects MXE in:
68
69 $HOME/mxe-git
70
71Per default it will install the cross-compiled packages in:
72
4afaa19d
UH
73 $HOME/sr_mingw_release_32
74
75This depends on whether you're doing a 64-bit or 32-bit build, and whether
76you enabled debug builds or not.
