Ok,
The first step is to create an windows installer for ApiExtractor, to do it
I'm using InnoSetup (google about it).
You will need:
- Install the windows SDK.
- Install Qt4.6
- Install cmake 2.8
- Install InnoSetup
- Install libXml2 and libXslt for MSVC, this is the worst part and probably
you will need to do it by hand, because there aren't installers for these
libraries.
- Install git.
Put all these tools on your system path.
- Checkout ApiExtractor from our git repository[1].
- Change to branch "windows", it was merged with the version 0.4.0 and have my
initial work to create the windows installer.
- Try to compile the project on command line as you do for any cmake project.
- If any errors occur
- Try to Fix
- If you got the fix
- Create a patch, and do a merge request on gitorious.
- else
- Report as a bug on http://bugs.openbossa.org
- Run "make windowsinstaller"
- Check the errors, because my script is too old and you need to modify it,
just remove the installation routine for FindApiExtractor.cmake and add
installation routines for ApiExtractorConfig.cmake and
ApiExtractorVersion.cmake.
- Try again until you see everything working.
- Do a merge request with your changes.
With ApiExtractor perfectly done you can move on to Generator Runner then
Shiboken Generator and finally PySide.
