How to build qtZint.exe using:
|
|
- QT 5.15.16 source package
|
|
- MS Visual Studio 2015 (VC14)
|
|
|
|
Build static Qt:
|
|
---------------
|
|
- Go to: https://www.qt.io/offline-installers
|
|
- Download the zip "Qt 5.15.x source packages" (nearly 1 GB):
|
|
https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/5.15/5.15.16/single/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.15.16.zip
|
|
- Unzip to C:\ resulting in having the source in C:\qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.15.16\qt-everywhere-src-5.15.16
|
|
- Install Python (https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/) and make it available within the path.
|
|
|
|
- Start the VS2015 x86 native console by the start menu entry:
|
|
Visual Studio 2015\Visual Studio Tools\Windows Desktop Command Prompts\VS2015 x86 Native Tools-Eingabeaufforderung
|
|
- ("Eingabeaufforderung" = "Command Prompt")
|
|
|
|
- WARNING: MS Visual Studio 2015 will only work with up to Windows Kit 10.0.20348.0, which was removed in a recent update
|
|
(see https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/Visual-Studio-update-171411-removed-th/10953401?sort=newest)
|
|
It can be reinstalled at https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/sdk-archive/index-legacy
|
|
You may need to manually reset the environment variables INCLUDE, LIB, UCRTVersion, WindowsSDKLibVersion and WindowsSDKVersion, e.g.
|
|
|
|
set "INCLUDE=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\INCLUDE;C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\ATLMFC\INCLUDE;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\include\10.0.20348.0\ucrt;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\include\10.0.20348.0\shared;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\include\10.0.20348.0\um;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\include\10.0.20348.0\winrt;"
|
|
set "LIB=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\LIB;C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\ATLMFC\LIB;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\lib\10.0.20348.0\ucrt\x86;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\lib\10.0.20348.0\um\x86;"
|
|
set UCRTVersion=10.0.20348.0
|
|
set WindowsSDKLibVersion=10.0.20348.0\
|
|
set WindowsSDKVersion=10.0.20348.0\
|
|
|
|
- Note: if "rc.exe" not available, install a Windows Kit and update PATH (e.g.):
|
|
set "PATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\10.0.20348.0\x86;%PATH%"
|
|
|
|
cd C:\qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.15.16\qt-everywhere-src-5.15.16
|
|
configure.bat -static -release -prefix c:\qt\5.15.16static -qt-zlib -qt-pcre -qt-libpng -qt-libjpeg -qt-freetype -opengl desktop -no-openssl -opensource -confirm-license -make libs -nomake tools -nomake examples -nomake tests -mp
|
|
- One may set another destination folder after the -prefix option.
|
|
- Attention, the upper command is one long line.
|
|
nmake
|
|
nmake install
|
|
- The last 3 commands run around 3 hours.
|
|
- Make sure, that python may be found in the path.
|
|
- the huge source folder may be deleted to save around 6GB of space.
|
|
|
|
Zint Folder structure:
|
|
----------------------
|
|
- zint source files in %ZH%, e.g.
|
|
set "ZH=%cd%\zint"
|
|
git clone https://git.code.sf.net/p/zint/code "%ZH%"
|
|
-> this file is in %ZH%\frontend_qt
|
|
|
|
- libpng source files in %ZH%\..\lpng
|
|
git clone https://git.code.sf.net/p/libpng/code "%ZH%\..\lpng"
|
|
-> %ZH%\..\lpng\png.h exists
|
|
|
|
- zlib source files in %ZH%\..\zlib
|
|
git clone https://github.com/madler/zlib.git "%ZH%\..\zlib"
|
|
-> %ZH%\..\zlib\zlib.h exists
|
|
|
|
- gs1-syntax-engine source files in %ZH%\..\gs1-syntax-engine
|
|
git clone https://github.com/gitlost/gs1-syntax-engine "%ZH%\..\gs1-syntax-engine"
|
|
|
|
Build libpng:
|
|
-------------
|
|
cd "%ZH%\..\zlib"
|
|
nmake -f win32\Makefile.msc clean
|
|
nmake -f win32\Makefile.msc
|
|
cd ..\lpng
|
|
nmake -f scripts\makefile.vcwin32 clean
|
|
nmake -f scripts\makefile.vcwin32
|
|
|
|
Build gs1-syntax-engine:
|
|
------------------------
|
|
cd "%ZH%\..\gs1-syntax-engine\src\c-lib"
|
|
nmake -f makefile.vcwin32 clean
|
|
nmake -f makefile.vcwin32
|
|
|
|
Build zint:
|
|
-----------
|
|
set QTDIR=C:\Qt\5.15.16static
|
|
set PATH=C:\Qt\5.15.16static\bin;%PATH%
|
|
set QMAKESPEC=win32-msvc
|
|
cd "%ZH%"
|
|
|
|
cd backend_qt
|
|
qmake backend_qt.pro
|
|
nmake clean
|
|
nmake release
|
|
|
|
cd ..\frontend_qt
|
|
qmake frontend_qt.pro
|
|
nmake clean
|
|
nmake release
|
|
