is it possible to expand your guide to include building the qt client?

Bitcoin-qt build instrunctions added

Hello nitrogenetics

Finally, after two months of studying and testing, on and off in spare moments, I have found what was keeping me from compiling bitcoin-qt on windows, for windows!

What I discovered was, was that in step 4.3 of your wonderful guide,
qmake "USE_UPNP=-" bitcoin-qt.pro
creates the Makefile.Release for the next step, and it makes an (at least one) error in doing it! What I found was that when the next step is run
mingw32-make -f Makefile.Release
the linker loader part (looking at Makefile.Release) at the end of the process, attempts to link
QtGui4 and QtCore4, which are .dll's in the bin directory, not the lib directory!

So I added a piece to the LIBS directive at line 18 of Makefile.Release:
it was
LIBS = -L"c:\Qt\4.8.4\lib" -lmingwthrd -lmingw32 -lqtmain build\bitcoin-qt_res.o D:/BTCversions/version_0_8_1/src/src/leveldb/libleveldb.a D:/BTCversions/version_0_8_1/src/src/leveldb/libmemenv.a -lshlwapi -LC:\boost_1_53_0\stage\lib -Lc:/db-4.8.30.NC/build_unix -Lc:/openssl-1.0.1e -lssl -lcrypto -ldb_cxx -lws2_32 -lshlwapi -lmswsock -lole32 -loleaut32 -luuid -lgdi32 -lboost_system-mgw46-mt-sd-1_53 -lboost_filesystem-mgw46-mt-sd-1_53 -lboost_program_options-mgw46-mt-sd-1_53 -lboost_thread-mgw46-mt-sd-1_53 -lboost_chrono-mgw46-mt-sd-1_53 -lQtGui4 -lQtCore4

and it becomes
LIBS = -L"c:\Qt\4.8.4\bin" -L"c:\Qt\4.8.4\lib" -lmingwthrd -lmingw32 -lqtmain build\bitcoin-qt_res.o D:/BTCversions/version_0_8_1/src/src/leveldb/libleveldb.a D:/BTCversions/version_0_8_1/src/src/leveldb/libmemenv.a -lshlwapi -LC:\boost_1_53_0\stage\lib -Lc:/db-4.8.30.NC/build_unix -Lc:/openssl-1.0.1e -lssl -lcrypto -ldb_cxx -lws2_32 -lshlwapi -lmswsock -lole32 -loleaut32 -luuid -lgdi32 -lboost_system-mgw46-mt-sd-1_53 -lboost_filesystem-mgw46-mt-sd-1_53 -lboost_program_options-mgw46-mt-sd-1_53 -lboost_thread-mgw46-mt-sd-1_53 -lboost_chrono-mgw46-mt-sd-1_53 -lQtGui4 -lQtCore4

Then it links, and bitcoin-qt.exe works so far, in the various tests I have given it.

Interestingly, the messages referred to that are emitted when qmake creates Makefile.Release from bitcoin-qt.pro suggest that it is turning uPnP back on and off and on, even with the flag saying no, off. I think the QtGui4 & QtCore dlls are that uPnp part which somehow crept into the link from bitcoin-qt.pro

Perhaps the .pro file can be "fixed" but I think the problem may be more in the "less than robust" parser in qmake?

I am now off to giving the wallet.dat its own path, like bitcoin.conf can have. The only tricky code is at startup in AppInit2(), step 5, where the "Verifying wallet integrity..." code is, covering -salvagewallet and bitdb.Verify(...)

But I don't think it is too difficult.

I think there is a boatload of good programmers out there that are on the windows platform, that can improve the UI of bitcoin-qt and the internals too, and make it so tempting that many more (non technical) people will jump on the Bitcoin bandwagon...

All windows VC6, VC++Express 2005, 2008, 2010, 2012 (all free IDE BTW) users, let's contribute.

Hello all,

Here is a live pix worth 1K words.

There is a lot in there.

Notice the 5 transactions hi-lighted in color on blockchain.info and hi-lighted on the running MSVC++ bitcoind.exe. Also the ~117MB being used by bitcoind.exe according to procexp.exe. Another bitcoind.exe just RPC quizzed the MSVC++ version for getblockcount, actually getblockcountt. I added a command to give the block number and its blocktime so I could see easily how the "catch-up" was going. And on the right is MSVC++ Express having just compiled 3 of the files and linked them in 1:52 (1 minute and 52 seconds) to produce the program that is running. I just commented (//) out a few printf()s to quiet the printtoconsole output a little so that I could capture the transactions as they go scrolling by. If one looks closely one can see this forum open in another browser window in the background.

Ron

Hi all,

I couldn't wait any longer... Yes there are a few faux pas etc. but I think the ideas are clear. Here is the video series on building bitcoind.exe and YACoind.exe using MSVS and C++ on windows:
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFnWb0ttBBMLyUuniLp3PJ5Mn4tVUlliZ
there are 4 static library building videos, all short, and a two part finale

Hope this helps those that are "gcc desperate" Grin

I'm just offering an alternative to the current methods. It passes the unit test too, BTW.

Thanks for the guide. I am finally able to compile but I'm still struggling with building qrencode. libpng builds just fine, but when I make qrencode this is what I get:

Code:

./.libs/libqrencode.a(qrspec.o): In function `QRspec_newFrame':
c:\deps\qrencode/qrspec.c:530: undefined reference to `_imp__pthread_mutex_lock'

c:\deps\qrencode/qrspec.c:560: undefined reference to `_imp__pthread_mutex_unloc
k'

I found some advice that said to add -lpthread to CFLAGS in the Makefile but the change is overwritten when I configure

See: https://github.com/laanwj/bitcoin/commit/61d85071405b99c3734606eed31ea8f615c0c77a

that fixed the first problem, then i had it complaining about :

Code:

c:\deps\boost_1_53_0/boost/system/error_code.hpp:214:36: warning: 'boost::system

(i copied this from other thread, i'm on boost version 1.55)

which i fixed using this: -Wno-unused-variables
and now this:

Code:

The first error I see in that long text capture is in regard loop. To that end, see message # 1 in this forum:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1587734. Towards the end of that message you will find provisos on the deficiencies of the Qt make system (?) vis a vis C style macros. You have to fix them one at a time. So fix that and recompile-make-whatever and chase the next error.

Or come over to the dark side and build using MSVS Roll Eyes

whoops, this is actually the error i'm getting:

...
I noticed someone else had it earlier in the thread but no solution was mentioned, has anyone had this and solved it?
The first error I see in that long text capture is in regard loop. To that end, see message # 1 in this forum:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1587734. Towards the end of that message you will find provisos on the deficiencies of the Qt make system (?) vis a vis C style macros. You have to fix them one at a time. So fix that and recompile-make-whatever and chase the next error.

Or come over to the dark side and build using MSVS

I noticed someone else had it earlier in the thread but no solution was mentioned, has anyone had this and solved it?

Working fine out of the box for me. Could you post your gcc -v output?

Excellent work Ron. This is really helpful to Windows developers. I don't have time now to review all videos, but I'll do that later after exams :-).
Hello Jori,

There are only four of them, ranging from ~2 minutes to less than 12 minutes. All totaling less than 28 minutes. They might even help your thought processes and thereby assist you at exam time

Getting off the soapbox and high horse now... and going back to the nose to the grindstone, salt mine, dungeon... Actually, to making the "how to build the libraries" video series for MSVC++. Imagine a video game walk through GUI manipulation is much easier to understand by seeing rather than reading "how to".

Hello all,

I promised videos on MSVC++ static library building for bitcoind.exe & *coind.exe --
and here they are:
http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCytoaHvG3H1y9CnxZS819eQ

The links to the sources to build bitcoind.exe 0.8.6 are given in message # 43:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.6284139

The last video on actually building bitcoind.exe and one other *coind.exe using those libraries is almost done, but those practiced in the art probably won't need it Grin

I would be interested in feedback. And I would hope that this allows a stampeding herd of Windows developers to jump in and contribute to the bitcoin and other *coin projects.

Ron

Any coin. Bitcoin 0.8.6, Dogecoin, etc. Personally I am trying to do KaChingCoin, but none of them are working.
Another developer told me boost 1.55 has issues, so I tried others.

Code:
please use "code" to post your errors :) It's much more readable. (its the # next to the quote ballon)
Looking at long list of errors i'd say it's not the boost version (ive build with 1.53 and 1.55 working) but more of a link inside your makefile that refers to your dependency.

Personally i would recommend starting over. Not just for the dependencies but also for state of mind. Clear everything and start from scratch. Takes an hour or two but it will save you time in the end and lots of frustration. You've had some practice so shouldnt be that hard a 2nd/3rd or 4th time...
Follow the guide to the letter to make working version of bitcoin 0.8.6. first. If that works you will have spotted something you missed and are ready to start frustrating yourself with other coins. Bitcoin with this guide is by far the easiest. Make sure to have that down first

error log with boost 55:

Is there any particular reason that you have mingw 4.6.2? I think it should be 4.8.2
