HOW TO BUILD PANDA ON A WINDOWS SYSTEM, WITHOUT CYGWIN

|
|
-Note: although Panda can be built without Cygwin, for the moment we
|
|
|
-have dropped support for the Microsoft nmake program (which is not
|
|
|
-really supported by Microsoft either). Thus, even though you do not
|
|
|
-need to have all of Cygwin installed, you will need to have at least
|
|
|
-GNU make, as well as a few associated tools. These programs are
|
|
|
-available from Cygwin (make.exe, sh.exe, cp.exe, rm.exe); you can copy
|
|
|
-these programs from someone who has installed Cygwin. You will also
|
|
|
-need the support DLL, cygwin1.dll.
|
|
|
+You will have to make sure that you installed the command-line
|
|
|
+utilities on your system path when you installed Visual Studio, or you
|
|
|
+can run the batch file vcvars32.bat to put these utilities on your
|
|
|
+path for the current session (this batch file is in a directory like
|
|
|
+c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .Net\Vc7\bin).
|
|

|
|
|
+Microsoft provides a command-line make utility with Visual Studio
|
|
|
+called nmake, although it's nowhere near as robust as the GNU make
|
|
|
+utility provided with Cygwin. But Panda can generate Makefiles that
|
|
|
+follow the nmake convention, and will do so by default if your
|
|
|
+ppremake was not built with the Cygwin tools.
