2 This directory <bacula-src>/src/win32 contains the build
3 environment for building the native Win32 Bacula File daemon,
4 the native Win32 bconsole program and the wx-console GUI console
7 The directory structure is:
9 bacula/src/win32 Makefiles and scripts
10 baculafd Visual Studio Files
11 Release Release objects, and bacula-fd.exe
12 Debug Debug object, and bacula-fd.exe produced
14 console Build of console program and bconsole.conf
15 Release Release objects and bconsole.exe
17 wx-console Buld of wx-console program and wx-console-conf
18 Release Release objects and wx-console.exe
20 filed Links to core filed code
21 findlib Links to core findlib code
22 lib Links to core lib code
25 pthreads The POSIX pthreads library (third party)
26 zlib The zlib library (third party)
27 wx The wxWidgets library (third party)
29 depkgs-win32 is released in a separate .tar.gz file that contains the
30 source for the above mentioned libraries needed to build the
31 Win32 Bacula. It can be found in the Source Forge Bacula project
35 - Make sure nmake is on your PATH.
36 - Make sure your COMSPEC is properly setup (see full dump of
37 my cygwin environment below).
38 - The build is done in an rxvt window under the latest version
40 - You need the Platform SDK installed.
41 - You need Visual Studio installed.
42 - You need to load depkgs-win32, then
46 (try doing a make, but it will probably fail)
47 - You may have to build wx with VC++ (as was the case for me).
48 After starting VC++, use File->Open Workspace then
49 open wx/src/wxWindows.dsw then use
50 Build->Build All or Build->build wxmsw.lib should work too.
54 this will build pthreads and zlib
56 ./configure --enable-client-only
60 That should be all there is too it. The winbacula-1.xx.y.exe should be
61 in the current directory.

68 Christopher S. Hull, February 2004
71 For more details of building wx, see depkgs-win32/wx/docs/msw/install.txt
73 The easiest way to build this is to have a Visual Studio C++ 6.0.
74 However, you can use the free Microsoft C++ compiler with a bit
77 Here are additional pointers on building wx-console supplied by Nicolas Boichat:
80 Tools I used (I think the 3 first one are included in VStudio) :
81 - VC++ toolkit : http://msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/vctoolkit2003/
82 - Windows Platform SDK :
83 http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/
84 (Core SDK and Internet Development SDK)
85 - nmake (it got it with .Net Framework SDK)
86 - lib.exe found in the SDK-base/Bin/win64 directory (works fine
89 Instructions if you want to build wx-console :
90 - wxWidgets 2.4.2 compilation
91 + In include/wx/string.h, replace line 195 by
92 #if defined(__VISUALC__) // && defined(_MT) && !defined(_DLL)
93 + In src/common/string.cpp, replace line 167 by
94 #if defined(__VISUALC__) // && defined(_MT) && !defined(_DLL)
95 + Follow the instructions in docs/msw/install.txt
96 (Visual C++ 6.0 compilation - Using makefiles)
98 - Make sure that the environment variables are set as:
99 - PATH includes the directories bin of both the C++ Toolkit and the SDK
100 - INCLUDE includes the directories include of both the C++ Toolkit and the SDK
101 - LIB includes the directories Lib of both the C++ Toolkit and the SDK
103 - Compile bacula depkg-win32 with Visual Studio or try the
104 supplied makefiles as described in the doc.
106 - Compile wx-console with nmake -f wx-console.mak in
109 - Additional information on using the free Micrsosoft C++ see
110 http://sapdb.2scale.net/moin.cgi/MS_20C_2b_2b_20Toolkit
112 NOTE! I (Kern) cannot build wxWindows with the Makefile -- I had to use
113 VC Studio directly to do so following their instructions.
115 Getting all the environment variables setup properly is not always so obvious.
116 Here is what I have when I do a "set" in a rxvt window, in which I build
117 Bacula. Probably what is important are INCLUDE, LIB, PATH, and WXWIN, but note
