Hi,
I have a couple of plugins (DLLs) that are based on RDKit. To minimize
deployment issues I build the DLLs with /MT instead of the default /MD
so the MSVC runtime libraries will be linked statically into the DLL.
And so I won't have to worry about the presence or absence of MSVC
runtime DLLs on the target system.
I had to hack a little to get RDKit to build with a static runtime and
link it correctly to boost. I am fine with hacking it, as I might be the
only one building it this way. But if there is already a way to make
cmake build RDKit with a static runtime I'd love to hear about it.
RDKit source files in C:\RDKit_2014_09_1\. InChI sources downloaded.
Using boost binaries from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost-binaries/. Doing a
32-bit build.
set RDBASE=C:\RDKit_2014_09_1
set PATH=%PATH%;%RDBASE%\lib;c:\local\boost_1_57_0\lib32-msvc-10.0
cd C:\RDKit_2014_09_1\build
*# Add to cmake command line: -DBoost_USE_STATIC_LIBS=ON and
-DBoost_USE_STATIC_RUNTIME=ON**
*cmake -DBOOST_ROOT=C:/local/boost_1_57_0/
*-DBoost_USE_STATIC_LIBS=ON -DBoost_USE_STATIC_RUNTIME=ON*
-DRDK_BUILD_PYTHON_WRAPPERS= -DRDK_BUILD_INCHI_SUPPORT=ON -G"Visual
Studio 10" ..
# Switch to a Cygwin prompt.
cd /cygdrive/C/RDKit_2014_09_1/build/
*# Force compiler to compile with /MT instead of /MD in Release builds.
*find . -name "*.vcxproj" -type f -exec sed -i
"s/<RuntimeLibrary>MultiThreadedDLL/<RuntimeLibrary>MultiThreaded/"
'{}' \;
*# Remove the BOOST_ALL_DYN_LINK define which will otherwise cause a
link error in boost's auto_link.hpp.
*find . -name "*.vcxproj" -type f -exec sed -i
"s/BOOST_ALL_DYN_LINK;//" '{}' \;
# Switch back to DOS prompt to build.
c:/Windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework64/v4.0.30319/MSBuild.exe /m:4
