43 #Remove the special stdint.h and inttypes.h included in linphone-deps: it is for MSVC only.

47 #Remove libgcc specific libraries, only needed for MSVC:
48 rm /lib/libgcc.a /lib/libmingw32.a /lib/libmingwex.a
50 #Remove libintl from gtk, we don't need it and it conflicts with the one supplied by mingw.
56 * Download and install Inno Setup Compiler (required only if you run 'make setup.exe'). Add it to your windows Path environment variable.
58 Get Linphone source code
59 ************************
61 Install msys-git from (http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/). During installation you are asked to make a choice about how line endings are treated by git.
62 Choose "Checkout line endings as they are, commit as they are". THIS CHOICE IS VERY IMPORTANT. OTHERS BREAK AUTOMAKE.
64 It is recommended that you create a directory somewhere with a path without any spaces or ~ characters, for example
66 Within msys-git bash, do
68 git clone git://git.savannah.nongnu.org/linphone.git --recursive
74 WARNING: During the build, windows might slow down suddenly. Using ctl+alt+del to start the windows system monitor,
75 you might see a process 'LVpSRV.exe' or something like this that eats 90% of cpu.
76 Kill it. Don't know what it is, but once killed, windows runs normally.
78 #run autogen.sh after a git checkout or update
80 ./configure --prefix=/opt/linphone --enable-shared --disable-static
82 #will install to /opt/linphone, required for compilation of plugins.
84 #make a binary zip of linphone
86 #additionally you can make binary installer if you have Inno Setup 5 installed in its default path
88 #now you're done, you have a fresh linphone windows installer in the current directory.
91 cd mediastreamer2/plugins/msx264
93 PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/linphone/lib/pkgconfig ./configure --prefix=/opt/linphone --enable-shared --disable-static

99 #the buddylookup plugin enables lookup of buddies in a remote database using xml-rpc over http/https.

109 * Notes about linphone-deps generation *
110 ******************************************************
112 Linphone-deps is a collection of linphone dependencies, that are for some of them difficult
113 to find as windows binaries.
114 These notes are useful if you want to upgrade part of the software that is included in the
115 linphone-deps packages.
117 List of software included in linphone-deps:
119 libeXosip2 (compiled)
120 libavcodec, libavutil, libavformat, libavdevice, libswscale (compiled, all these from ffmpeg)
121 libtheora (from the web)
122 libx264 (compiled from the version distributed from linphone's web site)
123 libogg (from the web)
124 libspeex, libspeexdsp (compiled, statically to workaround a dll-related crash)
125 libgnutls (from the web)
126 libgsm (from the web)
131 For every package compiled that goes into linphone-deps, .la files (libtool files) must be removed to avoid libtool errors.
132 When running "make install DESTDIR=<somepath>", somepath must be absolute and should not contain any ~ or space.
135 ./configure --enable-shared --disable-static --enable-memalign-hack --extra-cflags="-fno-common" --enable-gpl && make
136 make install DESTDIR=/home/<myuser>/ffmpeg-install
137 Copy to ~/ffmpeg-install/usr/local/* to linphone-deps/.
138 Copy also all *.dll.a files from the build tree to lib/ directort of linphone-deps. These are the implibs necessary to link a program against the dlls.
140 - building libxml2: the binaries found on the internet are generated with MSVC++, and for obscure reason they are not suitable for building libsoup
141 (that requires libxml2).
142 ./configure --enable-shared --disable-static && make && make install DESTDIR=/home/<myuser>/libxml2-install
143 copy ~/libxml2-install/usr/local/* into linphone-deps/.
147 * download yasm normal version windows executable from yasm project page:
148 http://www.tortall.net/projects/yasm/wiki/Download
149 copy it as /usr/local/bin/yasm.exe
151 cd into x264/ dir then run:
152 ./configure --enable-pic
154 make install DESTDIR=/home/<myuser>/x264-install
155 then copy the content of ~/x264-install/usr/local/ into linphone-deps/.
157 - libgnutls (required for libsoup https support)
158 - download binary zip from http://josefsson.org/gnutls4win.org
159 - add to linphone-deps
161 - building libsoup (only required for buddylookup plugin)
162 - download source from gnome ftp (warning: at the time of the writing only version 2.26.x can compile with the
163 glib version supplied in the gtk-bundle, 2.27 requires a new version of glib)
164 - uncompress libgnutls zip in /
165 - make sure you have libxml2 installed in /
166 - apply a bugfix patch (fix gnutls support on windows, completely broken otherwise). The patch
167 is in linphone-deps/src, apply it this way:
170 patch -p0 < libsoup-gnutls-bugfix.patch
172 ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-shared --disable-static
175 make install DESTDIR=/home/<myuser>/libsoup-install
176 - copy ~/libsoup-install/usr/* into linphone-deps/
178 Once you have everything in linphone-deps, remove .la files from lib:
