Ebiss: /* Install MinGW */

=Introduction=
MSYS is a helper environment for MinGW, the compiler chain for Windows based on GCC. It is the fastest way to build VLC natively on Windows.

This howto was re-created by [[User:J-b|Jean-Baptiste Kempf]] and updated in June 2009.

=Install MinGW=
Use the main installer 5.1.4 found at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Automated%20MinGW%20Installer/MinGW%205.1.4/MinGW-5.1.4.exe/download

Go through the wizard, selecting "Downloading and Install" and using the candidate release. Select gcc, g++ and MinGW make. It should download automatically:
*mingwrt-3.15
*w32api-3.12
*binutils-2.18
*gcc-core-3.4.5
*gcc-g++-3.4.5
*mingw32-make-3.81

=Install MSYS=
* Install MSys 1.0.11-rc1 with the exe: http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?group_id=2435&filename=MSYS-1.0.11.exe
Accept Post Install: [y]
MinGW Installed? : [y]
path to MinGW: [c:/MinGW]
* Install MSys Developer Tooltkit: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/msysDTK-1.0.1.exe

== AutoTools ==
Update your autoconf, automake and libtool by downloading and installing them, keeping in mind that you need to extract the content of the usr folder in C:\Msys
* http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MSYS%20autoconf/autoconf-2.63-1/autoconf-2.63-1-msys-1.0.11-bin.tar.lzma/download
* http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MSYS%20automake/automake-1.11-1/automake-1.11-1-msys-1.0.11-bin.tar.lzma/download
* http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MSYS%20libtool/libtool-2.2.7a-1/libtool-2.2.7a-1-msys-1.0.11-bin.tar.lzma/download

You can also compile them according to:
* http://wiki.enlightenment.org/index.php/EFL_Windows_XP
* http://www.mingw.org/wiki/msys

=Install other tools=

Installing mingw-utils is recommended: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/mingw-utils-0.3.tar.gz, extract it to mingw/bin.

Installation of wget too: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/wget-1.9.1-mingwPORT.tar.bz2

Although this is a mingwPORT package it already has a precompiled wget on board.
Extract the .tar.bz2 file. It contains wget.exe in the bin subfolder, extract it to mingw/bin.

== Install Git and checkout VLC==

See [[Git_Windows]].

You can also retrieve the source code from [http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-sources.html VideoLAN Project: VLC media player source code]

== PKG-CONFIG==
pkg-config is a mess, this is not NEWS... And you cannot compile it from Windows because of a few bugs...

Get Glib from GNOME: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/binaries/win32/glib/2.18/glib_2.18.2-1_win32.zip
Unzip it to C:\Msys.

Get PKG-CONFIG from GNOME: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/dependencies/pkg-config-0.23-2.zip
Unzip it to C:\Msys.

=Contribs=
Take the precompiled contribs from:
http://people.videolan.org/~jb/Contribs/

Copy them in your ~
tar xvjf contrib-20090813-win32-bin-gcc-4.2.1-sjlj-runtime-3.15.2-only.tar.bz2 -C /
rm -v /usr/win32/bin/moc /usr/win32/bin/uic /usr/win32/bin/rcc

=Bootstrap VLC=
cp -v /usr/win32/share/aclocal/* m4/
cp -v /usr/share/aclocal/* m4/
PATH=/usr/win32/bin:$PATH ./bootstrap
It should warn about gettext... Just ignore.

=Configure=
sh extras/package/win32/configure-msys.sh
* If you downloaded a VLC source code tarball, you cant retrieve ''configure-msys.sh'' and ''configure-common.sh'' from [[http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc.git;a=summary vlc.git]] / extras / package / win32 /

=Compile=
PATH=/usr/win32/bin:$PATH make
If you have Cygwin and others tools installed, try using a shorter PATH inside MSYS shell i.e.
$ echo $PATH
.:/usr/local/bin:/mingw/bin:/bin

=Introduction=
MSYS is a helper environment for MinGW, the compiler chain for Windows based on GCC. It is the fastest way to build VLC natively on Windows.

This howto was re-created by [[User:J-b|Jean-Baptiste Kempf]] and updated in June 2009.

=Install MinGW=
Use the main installer 5.1.4 found at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Automated%20MinGW%20Installer/MinGW%205.1.4/MinGW-5.1.4.exe/download

Go through the wizard, selecting "Downlading and Install" and using the candidate release. Select gcc, g++ and MinGW make. It should download automatically:
*mingwrt-3.15
*w32api-3.12
*binutils-2.18
*gcc-core-3.4.5
*gcc-g++-3.4.5
*mingw32-make-3.81

=Install MSYS=
* Install MSys 1.0.11-rc1 with the exe: http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?group_id=2435&filename=MSYS-1.0.11.exe
Accept Post Install: [y]
MinGW Installed? : [y]
path to MinGW: [c:/MinGW]
* Install MSys Developer Tooltkit: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/msysDTK-1.0.1.exe

== AutoTools ==
Update your autoconf, automake and libtool by downloading and installing them, keeping in mind that you need to extract the content of the usr folder in C:\Msys
* http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MSYS%20autoconf/autoconf-2.63-1/autoconf-2.63-1-msys-1.0.11-bin.tar.lzma/download
* http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MSYS%20automake/automake-1.11-1/automake-1.11-1-msys-1.0.11-bin.tar.lzma/download
* http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MSYS%20libtool/libtool-2.2.7a-1/libtool-2.2.7a-1-msys-1.0.11-bin.tar.lzma/download

You can also compile them according to:
* http://wiki.enlightenment.org/index.php/EFL_Windows_XP
* http://www.mingw.org/wiki/msys

=Install other tools=

Installing mingw-utils is recommended: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/mingw-utils-0.3.tar.gz, extract it to mingw/bin.

Installation of wget too: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/wget-1.9.1-mingwPORT.tar.bz2

Although this is a mingwPORT package it already has a precompiled wget on board.
Extract the .tar.bz2 file. It contains wget.exe in the bin subfolder, extract it to mingw/bin.

== Install Git and checkout VLC==

See [[Git_Windows]].

You can also retrieve the source code from [http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-sources.html VideoLAN Project: VLC media player source code]

== PKG-CONFIG==
pkg-config is a mess, this is not NEWS... And you cannot compile it from Windows because of a few bugs...

Get Glib from GNOME: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/binaries/win32/glib/2.18/glib_2.18.2-1_win32.zip
Unzip it to C:\Msys.

Get PKG-CONFIG from GNOME: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/dependencies/pkg-config-0.23-2.zip
Unzip it to C:\Msys.

=Contribs=
Take the precompiled contribs from:
http://people.videolan.org/~jb/Contribs/

Copy them in your ~
tar xvjf contrib-20090813-win32-bin-gcc-4.2.1-sjlj-runtime-3.15.2-only.tar.bz2 -C /
rm -v /usr/win32/bin/moc /usr/win32/bin/uic /usr/win32/bin/rcc

=Bootstrap VLC=
cp /usr/win32/share/aclocal/* m4/
cp /usr/share/aclocal/* m4/
PATH=/usr/win32/bin:$PATH ./bootstrap
It should warn about gettext... Just ignore.

=Configure=
sh extras/package/win32/configure-msys.sh

=Compile=
PATH=/usr/win32/bin:$PATH make
