I started KiCad from within msys like /d/proj/msys_mingw/KiCad_git_repo/kicad/build/release/kicad/kicad.exe
And within this build tree in D:\proj\msys_mingw\KiCad_git_repo\kicad\build\release I don't have the directory structure as in an regular KiCad installation like C:\auracher\pgr\eda\KiCad\kicad-5.1.6_1-x86_64\KiCad with the subdirectories bin lib share ssl. So there is no directory kicad/lib/ngspice/ Sorry I am a beginner in this. I Think I am missing the installation steps from the build tree to the real independant installation of KiCad outside of msys/mingw I would expect that this should be collected to D:\proj\msys_mingw\KiCad_git_repo\kicad\out. But also ther are no subdirectorys bin lib share ssl. Do I need another make target? How can I do that. Or what other possibilities do I have to work with the KiCad Code ? Or is it a silly idea to work on windows. Is it easier on Linux? Thanks for any help Besides this I have a second problem. On Windows 10 I installed Microsoft Visual Studio C++ 2019 to get an IDE for the kiCad Source Also I compiled the vcpg packages with .\vcpkg install boost .\vcpkg install cairo .\vcpkg install curl .\vcpkg install glew .\vcpkg install gettext .\vcpkg install glm .\vcpkg install icu .\vcpkg install ngspice .\vcpkg install opencascade .\vcpkg install opengl .\vcpkg install openssl .\vcpkg install python3 .\vcpkg install wxwidgets .\vcpkg install zlib as desribed in https://docs.kicad.org/doxygen/md_Documentation_development_compiling.html and did the other steps documented there. This all worked very well as described in the above kiCad Docu. After starting Visual Studio 2019 I tried to build the project via CMake. I opened: D:\proj\msys_mingw\KiCad_git_repo\kicad\CmakeLists.txt I had to modify the file: D:\proj\msys_mingw\KiCad_git_repo\kicd\CMakeLists.txt I inserted at the top set( GLEW_INCLUDE_DIR "/d/proj/msys_mingw/vcpkg_repo/vcpkg/packages/glew_x86-windows/include/" ) set( GLEW_LIBRARY "/d/proj/msys_mingw/vcpkg_repo/vcpkg/packages/glew_x86-windows/lib" ) set ( GLM_INCLUDE_DIR "/d/proj/msys_mingw/vcpkg_repo/vcpkg/packages/glm_x86-windows/include" ) set ( GLM_VERSION "0.9.9.8" ) set ( ZLIB_LIBRARY "/d/proj/msys_mingw/vcpkg_repo/vcpkg/packages/zlib_x86-windows/lib" ) set ( ZLIB_INCLUDE_DIR "/d/proj/msys_mingw/vcpkg_repo/vcpkg/packages/zlib_x86-windows/include") set ( CURL_LIBRARY "/d/proj/msys_mingw/vcpkg_repo/vcpkg/packages/curl_x86-windows/lib" ) set ( CURL_INCLUDE_DIR "/d/proj/msys_mingw/vcpkg_repo/vcpkg/packages/curl_x86-windows/include") set ( CAIRO_LIBRARIES "/d/proj/msys_mingw/vcpkg_repo/vcpkg/packages/cairo_x86-windows/lib") set ( CAIRO_INCLUDE_DIR "/d/proj/msys_mingw/vcpkg_repo/vcpkg/packages/cairo_x86-windows/include") set ( CAIRO_RELEASE "1.16.0" ) set( PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE "/c/msys64/mingw64/bin/pkgconf.exe" ) This eliminated some errors But I still have the following problem 1> [CMake] -- KiCad install dir: <D:/proj/msys_mingw/KiCad_git_repo/kicad/out/install/x64-Debug (Standard)> 1> [CMake] -- Check for installed GLEW -- found 1> [CMake] -- Check for installed ZLIB -- found 1> [CMake] -- Could NOT find PkgConfig (missing: PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE) 1> [CMake] CMake Error at CMakeModules/FindCairo.cmake:145 (file): 1> [CMake] file failed to open for reading (No such file or directory): 1> [CMake] 1> [CMake] /d/proj/msys_mingw/vcpkg_repo/vcpkg/packages/cairo_x86-windows/include/cairo-version.h 1> [CMake] Call Stack (most recent call first): ... many thanks for teh patience Stefan On 12/16/20 12:14 PM, Holger Vogt wrote:
