<b>How to build QOds</b><p/>
</div>
<span class="note">Note 1:</span>
<span style="color:rgb(200,0,0);font-weight:bold">
Shared libraries</span> are built by default, to build
<span style="color:rgb(200,0,0);font-weight:bold">static libraries</span>
uncomment the line<br/>
<b>#set (BUILD_STATIC_LIBRARIES "1")</b><br/>
from QOds/CMakeLists.txt.
</span><p/>
<span class="note">Note 2:</span> After compilation the resulting
libraries are to be found in "QOds/build/lib".
<br/>The example code from "QOds/app" in
"QOds/build/app".
<p/>
<span class="note">Note 3:</span> Since Nov 2014 QOds comes with its own
copy of <a href="http://www.zlib.net">zlib</a> to make the building
process (a lot) easier.<p/>
<br/><br/>
<div class="parag">Prerequisites, all OSes</div>
<ol>
<li>Obviously, make sure you have Qt 5.x installed and a C++11
capable compiler.</li>
<li>Install <a href="http://www.cmake.org">CMake (cmake.exe)</a> (not to be confused with make (make.exe)),
you'll need CMake to generate the build
files for your (native) development environment,
be it Visual Studio, MinGW, or whatever.<br/>
<span style="color:rgb(100,100,100);font-style:italic;">In case you wonder, "CMakeLists.txt" are the files from which cmake.exe
generates the files for your native building environment.</span>
</li>
<li>Good practice: create a "build" dir to keep
the to be created build/config files apart from the source code because the building
environments generate quite a bit of building garbage.
After this the source tree will look like this:
<pre>
[+]app
[+]<b>build</b>
[+]ods
[+]quazip
[+]zlib
CMakeLists.txt
how_to_build.html
setup_windows_env.bat
</pre>
</li>
</ol>
<div class="parag">On Windows</div>
A few notes before compilation:<p/>
<b>Note 1:</b> Tested on Win7 and Win8.1<p/>
<b>Note 2:</b> The QOds library depends on and is built together with the libraries it depends
on besides Qt. Hence, after QOds is built, it's comprised of these files:
<pre>
[-]build
[-]lib
[-]Release
ods.dll -> the actual QOds library
quazip.dll -> high level zip/unzip library QOds depends on
zlib.dll -> low level library quazip depends on
</pre>
Back to compilation:<br/>
<ol>
<li>
Edit the file setup_windows_env.bat to point to your installation
of Qt 5.x and cmake.exe</li>
<li>For MinGW users only: Install make.exe if not yet installed and
edit the setup_windows_env.bat accordingly.</li>
<li>Now open cmd.exe, navigate to the source dir and execute
setup_windows_env.bat from the command line
for the system to know where your Qt5.x and cmake.exe are installed.
</li>
<li>From the command line go to the "build" dir (cd build).</li>
</ol>
Then:
<div class="subparag">Visual Studio 2013 users:</div>
<ul>
<li>Recent versions of cmake.exe can generate files for VS2013:<br/>
<br/>
<b>For 32 bit</b>:
<br/>
<i>cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013" ..</i>
<p/>
<b>For 64 bit:</b>
<br/>
<i>cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013 Win64" ..</i>
</li>
<li>Done. Look into the "build" dir, the files should be there, particularly
the "project" file QOds.sln. You know what to do next.</li>
</ul>
<div class="subparag">MinGW users:</div>
<ul>
<li>Now you're ready to generate build files for MinGW from the command line:
<p/>
<i>cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" ..</i>
</li>
<li>Now you can build the project with the good old make:
<p/>
<i>make -j4</i>
</li>
</ul>
<div class="parag">On Linux</div>
<ul>
From the "build" dir issue:
<br/>
<i>cmake ..</i>
<br/>
Then
<br/>
<i>make -j4</i>
</ul>
