|

Microsoft Visual Studio and Windows SDK
|
||||
----------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
You have to use Visual Studio 2008 as that is the version Python 2.x works
|
||||
with.
|
||||
|
||||
You need Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition for 32-bit and Professional for 64
|
||||
bit.
|
||||
|
||||
1) Install Visual Studio
|
||||
2) Install Visual Studio SP1 from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=10986
|
||||
(First check if the version of VS 2008 you have is not already SP1)
|
||||
3) Install The Windows SDK. You need to install a version that is built for VS
|
||||
2008. Get it from here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=3138
|
||||
4) If you are building 64bit, edit the properties of the Visual Studio command
|
||||
prompt shortcut to pass "amd64" instead of "x86" to the vsvars.bat file so that
|
||||
it uses the 64 bit tools.
|
||||
|
||||
I've read that it is possible to use the 64-bit compiler that comes with the
|
||||
Windows SDK With VS 2008 Express Edition, but I can't be bothered figuring it
|
||||
out. Just use the Professional Edition.
|
||||
|
||||
Cygwin
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
This is needed for automation of the build process, you dont need it otherwise.
|
||||
|
||||
Install, vim, rsync, openssh, unzip, wget at a minimum.
|
||||
In a cygwin terminal do:
|
||||
|
||||
ssh-host-config -y
|
||||
net start sshd
|
||||
|
||||
Pass port 22 through Windows firewall. Create .ssh/authorized_keys
|
||||
|
||||
Add VS90COMNTOOLS to ~/.bash_profile
|
||||
|
||||
Basic dependencies
|
||||
--------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Install cygwin and setup sshd (optional). Used to enable automation of the calibre build VM from linux, not needed if you are building manually.
