COMPILING ON WIN32
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It is not easy! Be warned! You need either one of these compilers:
* Mingw (http://www.mingw.org)
* MS Visual C
Note: This source code is meant for Linux/Unix like systems. Compiling this for
Windows will produce a below-par quality product. The official XChat for Windows
is not built with this unix source code.
Getting GTK
~~~~~~~~~~~
You also need GTK+ 2.10 for win32. Altough the GTK packages from the GIMP
website are larger and harder to install they work very well.
1) Get the following packages from:
http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/downloads.html
- gtk+-2.4.3.tar.gz
- gtk+-dev-2.4.3.tar.gz
- dirent.zip
- gettext-runtime-0.13.1.zip
- gettext-tools-0.13.1.zip
- atk-1.6.0.zip
- atk-dev-1.6.0.zip
- pango-1.4.0.zip
- pango-dev-1.4.0.zip
- libpng (http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/libpng.htm) Binaries & Developer files.
- GNU libiconv (Not source files)
- glib-2.4.2.zip
- glib-dev-2.4.2.zip
- pkgconfig-0.15.zip
- Zlib121-dll.zip
2) Extract all files to a suitable place such as c:\devtools
3) Windows 2000, XP & 2003 users:
- Start->(Settings->)Control Panel->System Applet
- Advanced Tab->Environment Variables
- Under "User variables for <user>" append ";C:\devtools" to the end of the PATH Variable
- Click Ok twice and close the Control Panel
For Windows 9x users your basicly on your own for now.
Mingw
~~~~~
I havn't tried this yet, but ./configure --disable-xlib would be a start.
MS Visual C
~~~~~~~~~~~
1) Edit src\makeinc.msc
You need to change the variables GLIB, GTK and LIBS to point
the correct paths for your harddrive. Use the program pkg-config
to find this information.
a) paste the output of `pkg-config glib-2.0 --msvc-syntax --cflags`
to the GLIB = ... line.
b) paste the output of `pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --msvc-syntax --cflags`
to the GTK = ... line.
c) paste the output of `pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --msvc-syntax --libs`
to the LIBS = ... line.
2) In MSVC's includes directory, copy io.h to unistd.h.
MS VC++ 6
~~~~~~~~~
3) Download Platform SDK from http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/
(you only need Core SDK) - ~200 MB Download (Be warned).
4) Open the build enviroment.
a) If your planning on developing modifications to the xchat code go:
Start->Programs->Microsoft Platform SDK...->Open Build Enviroment...->(Choose OS)->... (Debug)
b) If your compiling just to use xchat and wish to no recieve debug messages:
Start->Programs->Microsoft Platform SDK...->Open Build Enviroment...->(Choose OS)->... (Retail)
5) Change directory into where you have download the xchat source to and type this:
cd src
nmake -f makefile.msc clean
nmake -f makefile.msc
6) Copy fe-gtk\xchat.exe to another place.
MS VC++ 7 (.NET)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3) Open the Visual Studio .NET Command Prompt
4) Change directory into where you have download the xchat source to and type this:
cd src
nmake -f makefile.msc clean
nmake -f makefile.msc
5) Copy fe-gtk\xchat.exe to another place.
Common problems:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* gdk-pixbuf-csource must be in PATH.
FIX: See step 3 for setting up GTK
* You might need to install dirent.zip manually.
FIX: Copy C:\devtools\include\dirent.h to C:\devtools\include\glib-2.0\dirent.h
* Include path to libintl.h should be in GLIB= (makeinc.msc).
FIX: Copy C:\devtools\include\libintl.h to C:\devtools\include\glib-2.0\libintl.h
