- New baseline minimum platform is Ubuntu 22.04
- Qt6 requires at least 6.2
- some deprecations may be flagged on later versions (e.g. 6.8)
- CMake requires at least 3.22
- Include build-tests.yml github action to validate builds on mulitple platforms
- QtTest is no longer optional since it easily comes along for the ride with Qt
- Replaced QStringRef in model::SubstitutionField with simple ParserState class

gLabels Windows Build Instructions
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
gLabels for Windows can be built using one of the following toolchains:
|
|
|
|
- [Visual Studio](#visual-studio)
|
|
- [MSYS/MINGW](#msysmingw)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Visual Studio
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- Visual Studio (these instructions are for _Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64_)
|
|
- CMake 3.22+
|
|
- Qt6 6.2+ for your version of Visual Studio
|
|
- NSIS 3.03+ (optional -- for creating an installer)
|
|
|
|
Make sure that CMake and the Qt tools are in your executable search path. For example, you may need to add something like the following to your PATH environment variable:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
c:\Program Files\CMake\bin
|
|
c:\Qt\5.9.3\msvc2017_64\bin
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The exact paths will depend on the version of Qt and CMake you have installed.
|
|
|
|
### Compile
|
|
|
|
From a Windows Power Shell, use CMake to create and build a Visual Studio Solution:
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
> cd <i>glabels_source_directory</i>
|
|
> mkdir build
|
|
> cd build
|
|
> cmake -G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="c:\qt\5.9.3\msvc2017_64" ..
|
|
> cmake --build . --config Release
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
### Install
|
|
|
|
To install, run a Windows Power Shell `as administrator`, and type the following commands:
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
> cd <i>glabels_source_directory</i>/build
|
|
> cmake --build . --config Release --target INSTALL
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
### Create installer
|
|
|
|
To create a Windows installer, run the following commands:
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
> cd <i>glabels_source_directory</i>/build
|
|
> cpack -C Release -G NSIS
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MSYS/MINGW
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- MSYS/MINGW, including the following packages
|
|
+ mingw32-gcc-g++
|
|
+ mingw32-libz
|
|
- CMake 3.22+
|
|
- Qt6 6.2+ for MINGW
|
|
|
|
Make sure that Qt tools and CMake are in your executable search path. For example, add something like this to your .profile file:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
export PATH=/c/Qt/5.9.3/mingw53_32/bin:${PATH}
|
|
export PATH="/c/Program Files/CMake/bin":${PATH}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The exact paths will depend on the version of Qt and CMake you have installed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Compile and Install
|
|
|
|
From an MSYS shell, type the following commands:
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
$ cd <i>glabels_source_directory</i>
|
|
$ mkdir build
|
|
$ cd build
|
|
$ cmake -G "MSYS Makefiles" ..
|
|
$ make
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
To install glabels, run an MSYS shell `as administrator`, and type the following commands:
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
$ cd <i>glabels_source_directory</i>/build
|
|
$ make install
|
|
</pre>
|
