LIBXML2 build system for Win32 README
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
In this folder are stored all the files required to compile LIBXML2 with win32 compilers.
|
|
Bakefile (http://bakefile.sourceforge.net) is used as makefile generator.
|
|
|
|
Supported makefiles:
|
|
- makefile.vc for Microsoft NMAKE
|
|
- makefile.bcc for Borland MAKE
|
|
- makefile.wat for OpenWatcom MAKE
|
|
- makefile.gcc for MinGW MINGW32-MAKE
|
|
- all DSP & DSW for Microsoft VisualC++ 6.0 (can be used also with VS.NET AFAIK)
|
|
|
|
This readme is organized as:
|
|
1.0 HOWTO compile LIBXML2 using makefiles <-- for users who want to build the library using *command-line*
|
|
1.1 HOWTO compile LIBXML2 using an IDE <-- for users who want to build the library using an *IDE*
|
|
1.2 HOWTO regenerate makefiles for LIBXML2 <-- for libxml2 mantainers/developers/advanced users
|
|
|
|
If you just want to compile the library (and the test programs) you should definitely avoid the
|
|
section 1.1 and focus on the 1.0.

1.0 HOWTO compile LIBXML2 using makefiles
|
|
-----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Choose your preferred compiler among those actually supported (see above) and then run
|
|
|
|
mycompilermake -fmakefile.makefileext [options]
|
|
|
|
for a full list of the available options you should open with a notepad (or something like that)
|
|
the makefile you want to use; at the beginning you should see a section which starts as:
|
|
|
|
# -------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
# These are configurable options:
|
|
# -------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
here you can find all the options actually used by that makefile.
|
|
They can be customized when running the makefile writing something like:
|
|
|
|
nmake -fmakefile.vc BUILD=release
|
|
mingw32-make -fmakefile.gcc BUILD=debug ICONV_DIR=c:\myiconv
|
|
|
|
or they can be permanently changed modifying the makefile.
|
|
That's all: for any problem/compile-error/suggestion, write to
|
|
frm@users.sourceforge.net with the word "libxml2" in the subject.

1.1 HOWTO compile LIBXML2 using an IDE
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Actually only the Microsoft VisualC++ 6.0 project files are generated.
|
|
In future other Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) will be supported as well.
|
|
|
|
With MSVC++ 6.0, you should open the DSW file and then set as the active project the
|
|
"libxml2" project, if you want to build the library or one of the test projects if you
|
|
want to run them.
|
|
Using the command "Build->Set Active Configuration" you can choose one of the predefined
|
|
configuration.
|

1.2 HOWTO regenerate makefiles for LIBXML2
|
|
------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Be sure to have installed Bakefile (http://bakefile.sourceforge.net).
|
|
Just run the "bakefile_gen" command inside the folder containing the "libxml2.bkl" file.
|
|
NOTE: if you want to remove all the makefiles, you can use the "bakefile_gen -c" command.
|
|
|
|
The template files used to generate all makefiles are only two:
|
|
- libxml2.bkl (the main one)
|
|
- Bakefiles.bkgen
|
|
All the other files can be dynamically regenerated.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you have problems with the compilation of LIBXML2 under windows (using one of the supported compiler)
|
|
