getting stuck on googletest-1.7.0
November 26, 2017, 05:47:04 AM
I tried this and right after mingw installation its stop with fatal error, anyone have tried this recently I mean in nov 2017, is there any other build system that works for windows other than the windows 10 wsl
November 25, 2017, 01:32:08 PM
Anyone got a list of wallets that they have built using this system?
Paccoin was built with this also

Somebody built SCRYPT based coins?

I got past the qtbase errors by reming them out and it moved onto the next pahse. Now it's getting stuck.

Cory, i guess "File or path name too long" try using directly on c:/easyw/
BTW Phelix,
i noticed latest bitcoin uses secp256k1 instead of openssl, "A side effect of this change is that libconsensus no longer depends on OpenSSL" maybe that's why i get an error trying to build namecoin lately. Or maybe it's pointing to a file that was renamed or something is missing in my virtual machine...

Are you sure you got the right versions of mingw?
This was on a machine which never had mingw installed prior to running EasyWinBuilder. It was downloaded from the link that EWB provided, which is: https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Installer/mingw-get-setup.exe/download

So, I ran into this problem, as well, and had to manually extract to work around it:
Then I ran into the following older problem, with the openssl build silently exiting, as in:
openssl...
Operating system:i686-whatever-mingw
*then silently exits* (meaning, the ./config starts, then crashes before "Configuring mingw")
I had to manually run ./config and make via console for OpenSSL and then ran into the same silent exiting issue with the rest of the dependencies in build_dep.sh, so I had to manually run it for each of those dependencies, too.
I have my fingers crossed that the rest will work. I'm more curious as to why these problems are occurring for people.
Edit: Nope, got all the way to 4_run_build_daemon_and_qt, and get mingw32-make.exe has stopped working. EasyWinBuilder still ain't easy.
Thanks for this tip, I had to do the same.
Thanks for the feedback. Are you sure you got the right versions of mingw? I will take another look at this with bitcoin 0.12 Hi, I have this error:
Can't figured out how to procede. All .zip files works..
Any suggest?
Code:
QT5 base [5.3.2]
error: zipfile probably corrupt (segmentation violation)

EDIT:
running openssl ./config and make via mingw console seems to work fine. Not sure what the deal is with running via the .bat under windows command prompt instead...
I commented out the openssl compile from the .sh and am now continuing with the rest of the process.
The sed commands are throwing a permission denied error, but look to have successfully updated what they were supposed to anyways.

I have unpacked all the files and put them in /lib. Can you tell me what part I have to comment out? Tnx..
in unpack_dep.sh you need to uncomment one line:Code:
#unzip -o $DOWNLOAD/qtbase-opensource-src-$QTVERSION.zip -d $QTBASEPATH > /dev/null
For things to still work you need to do the unpack manually: extract qtbase-opensource-src-$QTVERSION.zip to the $QTBASEPATH (by default "Qt"). To test you can then directly run "2b_run_unpack_dep.bat" and "3d_build_qt5.bat"

Can you unpack the file manually? if not it's really broken. otherwise you can comment out the automatic extraction in easywinbuilder and manually do whatever you comment out. November 05, 2015, 01:56:12 PM

I (along with fsb4000 and mezzovide) developed a way to build BitcoinDarkd.exe for Windows using MXE cross compiler from Linux.
It's really nice and makes building coins for Windows just as easy as for linux.
https://github.com/jl777/btcd/blob/master/libjl777/make_win64.sh
https://github.com/jl777/btcd/blob/master/libjl777/Makefile.win
I got the QT building as well. MXE mxe.cc takes a while to build, but it's a self contained dev environment, and only needs to be build once.
mezzovide also got some btc packages committed to the official mxe repo as well, so you don't need to build them separately and manually link them into the makefile:
https://github.com/mezzovide/mxe/commit/1513af4a88fa268d97364b3f29f8e4fb2e1d54c4

Good question, I'm not sure. I haven't checked my builds against anyone elses'.
By the way, here is a script someone wrote to auto-build BitcoinDarkd.exe for Windows under Linux.
https://github.com/satindergrewal/SuperMesh/blob/master/scripts/btcd-build-scripts/btcdwinbuild.sh
It really makes things nice, having all the dependencies right there under MXE and not having to download & build so many manually.
Update - I went back and checked my build against someone elses, it had a different checksum. Unfortunate, but still extremely helpful when you just want to compile for Windows. To build BitcoinDarkd.exe for windows, you simply do:
Code:
git clone git://github.com/jl777/btcd
cd btcd/libjl777
make dependencies -f Makefile.win
make winpatch -f Makefile.win
make -f Makefile.win
make btcd -f Makefile.win
and that's it.
