1. Install CodeBlocks (without MinGW if possible, as we will need to use a separate installation of MinGW anyway) | |
2. Download mingw-get-setup.exe from https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Installer | |
Run mingw-get-setup.exe and install MinGW to C:\MinGW | |
(Note: It is essential that this path does not contain any spaces.) | |
When the installation manager window appears, mark the following for installation: | |
mingw32-base | |
mingw32-gcc-g++ | |
msys-base | |
msys-autoconf (class bin) | |
msys-libtool (class bin) | |
Apply the changes by clicking Installation -> Apply Changes, then Apply | |
Wait for the update manager to download and install updates, then close it | |
Download these three glib, pkg-config, pkg-config-dev archives and extract contents to C:\MinGW | |
4. Download protobuf-cpp-3.4.1.zip from https://github.com/google/protobuf/releases | |
Extract it into C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\src\protobuf (create the src directory if it doesn't exist) | |
(Make sure there aren't extra sub-folders, C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\src\protobuf should contain a file called configure - and many others) | |
5. Download asio-1.10.6.zip from https://sourceforge.net/projects/asio/files/asio/1.10.6%20%28Stable%29/ | |
Extract it into C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\src\asio | |
(Make sure there aren't extra sub-folders, C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\src\asio should contain a file called configure - and many others) | |
6. Download krpc-0.4.4-cpp.zip and extract it to C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\src\krpc | |
(Again, make sure there aren't extra sub-folders, C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\src\krpc should contain a file called configure - and many others) | |
7. Run C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\msys.bat to open the msys shell | |
8. Build and install protobuf by running the following commands: | |
cd /src/protobuf | |
./autogen.sh | |
./configure CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11" | |
make install | |
(Note: the protobuf installation instructions claim you don't need to run autogen.sh, but you actually do as msys has | |
an older version of autotools than they expect) | |
9. Change directory to asio and install its header files by running the following commands: | |
cd /src/asio | |
./configure --without-boost | |
make -C include install | |
10. Edit the file C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\src\krpc\configure.ac and remove the line reading "PKG_CHECK_MODULES([protobuf], [protobuf >= 3.3])" | |
This disables the use of pkg-config which is not available in msys | |
Change directory to krpc and build and install it by running the following commands: | |
cd /src/krpc | |
autoreconf --force --install | |
./configure CXXFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include" | |
make install | |
12. You can now close the msys shell window | |
13. The protobuf and krpc DLLs should now be available in C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\usr\local\lib | |
The header files for all three libraries should be in C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\usr\local\include | |
You should be able to add these paths to your include and linker path settings in CodeBlocks when compiling your krpc program. |
