Building instructions

Prerequisites (alternative versions may work)

• Development environment:
  • OSX 10.10.3
• OSX and iOS platforms:
  • XCode 6.3.1 (clang 3.6)
  • Command-line tools
• Android platform:
  • NDK r10e (GCC 4.9)
  • SDK Tools r24.2.0, with SDK Platform 16
• Emscripten platform:
  • 1.33.0 built manually
• Windows/MXE platform:
  • MXE (tested with 5080308e17)
  • Wine 1.6.2

Starting point

• Android: define the NDK_PATH variable, e.g.
  export NDK_PATH=~/DEV/android-ndk
• Emscripten: define the EMSCRIPTEN_PATH variable, e.g.
  export EMSCRIPTEN_PATH=~/DEV/emscripten
• Windows/MXE: define the MXE_PATH variable, e.g.
  export MXE_PATH=~/DEV/mxe

1. Download and unpack Boost 1.58:

cd chronotext-boost
source setup.sh

2. Build for the relevant platforms:

./build-osx.sh
./build-ios.sh
./build-android.sh
./build-emscripten.sh
./build-mxe.sh

Notes:

• The following static libs are built by default (packaged by platform, in the dist folder):
  • system
  • filesystem
  • iostreams
• Edit any of the build-*.sh files in order to add/remove libs.
• Windows/MXE:
  • Make MXE with a settings.mk such as:

  MXE_TARGETS := i686-w64-mingw32.static
  LOCAL_PKG_LIST := gcc zlib
  .DEFAULT local-pkg-list:
  local-pkg-list: $(LOCAL_PKG_LIST)
  

  • It is also possible to use this docker container via boot2docker 1.7.0 with a volume mounted under /root, e.g.
    run --rm -it -v ~/DEV:/root/DEV:rw thewtex/cross-compiler-windows-x86
