Source Code GIT URLs
Modified Spring github URL: https://github.com/nOOb3167/spring/tree/develop
Modified vclibs11 github URL: https://github.com/nOOb3167/vclibs11/
Prerequisites
- Visual Studio 2012 (v11)
- Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler Nov 2012 CTP
Download link: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35515
How to tell if you have Nov 2012 CTP installed: Start Visual Studio and open any Solution. Open the 'Property Pages' of any Project inside this solution, and check available values of 'Platform Toolset' under 'Configuration Properties -> General'. Nov 2012 CTP should be listed.
- GIT
If you can open command line and run git you should be fine.
- CMake
Building
First clone the git repositories.
Second configure through CMake.
Third compile through Visual Studio.
Cloning the git repositories
- Spring into any directory. - vclibs11 into subdirectory of Spring, named 'vclibs'
cd someEmptyDirectory
git clone git://github.com/nOOb3167/spring.git
cd spring
git clone git://github.com/nOOb3167/vclibs11.git vclibs
- This is the only command line step.
The directory structure should end up looking like below. A 'spring' directory with spring source, and a 'vclibs' subdirectory inside.
Configuring through CMake
Start CMake GUI.
- There should be a start menu shortcut if you used the CMake installer.
Set Source and Build paths.
- Source path should be set to where you cloned the Spring repository. You should find a file CMakeLists.txt in that directory - Build path can be set to whatever empty directory, or just same as Source path. On the screenshot below, Build path is set to a subdirectory named 'Build'.
Set CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to where you want Spring installed.
- This is necessary because the default, Program Files, requires admin permissions to write.
Press Configure.
- The correct option to select for compiler is as shown below. (Should be the default)
- For comparison, here is what is output for me after Configure. The warnings shown here are normal / expected.
Press Generate.
- This should generate the Visual Studio solution and project files. Those will be used to compile through Visual Studio next.
Compiling Solution through Visual Studio
Open the solution file.
- There should be a Spring.sln file, in the location you set as the Build path CMake.
Select the INSTALL Project.
- Unfortunately I have not found a way to do this automatically.
Build Project
- There should be no compile / link errors (But many warnings). If you forgot to change CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX from the default path (Program Files, requiring admin access), the installation step will complain.
