-
-This directory <bacula-src>/src/win32 contains the build
-environment for building the native Win32 Bacula File daemon,
-the native Win32 bconsole program and the wx-console GUI console
-program.
-
-The directory structure is:
-
- bacula/src/win32 Makefiles and scripts
- baculafd Visual Studio Files
- Release Release objects, and bacula-fd.exe
- Debug Debug object, and bacula-fd.exe produced
- by VC++
- console Build of console program and bconsole.conf
- Release Release objects and bconsole.exe
- Debug Debug objects
- wx-console Buld of wx-console program and wx-console-conf
- Release Release objects and wx-console.exe
- Debug Debug objects.

- findlib Links to core findlib code
- lib Links to core lib code
-
- depkgs-win32
- pthreads The POSIX pthreads library (third party)
- zlib The zlib library (third party)
- wx The wxWidgets library (third party)
-
-To build it:
-- Make sure nmake, and VC++ libraries and includes are setup correctly
- in PATH, INCLUDE, and LIB environment variables.
-- cd depkgs-win32
- make
-- You may have to build wx with VC++ (as was the case for me).
- In that case, open wx/src/wxWindows.dsp with VC++, select
- static complilation (not the DLL) of "Win32 Release", then
- click build all.
-- cd bacula
- ./configure
- cd src/win32
- make
-
-That should be all there is too it. The winbacula-1.xx.y.exe should be
-in the current directory.

-The native Win32 interface code was written by:
-
- Christopher S. Hull, February 2004
-
-
-For more details of building wx, see depkgs-win32/wx/docs/msw/install.txt
-
-The easiest way to build this is to have a Visual Studio C++ 6.0.
-However, you can use the free Microsoft C++ compiler with a bit
-of additional work.
-
-Here are additional pointers on building wx-console supplied by Nicolas Boichat:
-
-
-Tools I used (I think the 3 first one are included in VStudio) :
-- VC++ toolkit : http://msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/vctoolkit2003/
-- Windows Platform SDK :
- http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/
- (Core SDK and Internet Development SDK)
-- nmake (it got it with .Net Framework SDK)
-- lib.exe found in the SDK-base/Bin/win64 directory (works fine
- on a 32 bit Windows).
-
-Instructions if you want to build wx-console :
-- wxWidgets 2.4.2 compilation
- + In include/wx/string.h, replace line 195 by
- #if defined(__VISUALC__) // && defined(_MT) && !defined(_DLL)
- + In src/common/string.cpp, replace line 167 by
- #if defined(__VISUALC__) // && defined(_MT) && !defined(_DLL)
- + Follow the instructions in docs/msw/install.txt
- (Visual C++ 6.0 compilation - Using makefiles)
-
-- Make sure that the environment variables are set as:
- - PATH includes the directories bin of both the C++ Toolkit and the SDK
- - INCLUDE includes the directories include of both the C++ Toolkit and the SDK
- - LIB includes the directories Lib of both the C++ Toolkit and the SDK
-
-- Compile bacula depkg-win32 with Visual Studio or try the
- supplied makefiles as described in the doc.
-
-- Compile wx-console with nmake -f wx-console.mak in
- src/win32/wx-console
-
-- Additional information on using the free Micrsosoft C++ see
- http://sapdb.2scale.net/moin.cgi/MS_20C_2b_2b_20Toolkit
-
-NOTE! I (Kern) cannot build wxWindows with the Makefile -- I had to use
-VC Studio directly to do so following their instructions.
+Starting in version 1.39.x the source tree structure and the build
+process have changed significantly.
+
+Building the Windows version with versions of Microsoft Visual C++
+prior to VC8 (2005) is no longer supported nor is Cygwin32 required.
+
+There are now two supported methods of building the Windows version.
+The MinGW cross-compile environment is used to build it on Unix
+systems. Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 is used to build it on Microsoft
+Windows systems.
+
+The new directory structure is:
+
+ bacula-top Top level directory -- any name
+ bacula Top level Bacula source directory -- any name
+ src
+ win32 Main directory where Windows version is built.
+
+ docs Top level Bacula documentation directory
+
+ depkgs-mingw32 (MinGW32) 3rd Party Dependencies for MinGW32 build
+or
+ depkgs-msvc (MS VC++) 3rd Party Dependencies for Microsoft VC++ build.
