This readme outlines the instructions for building
|
|
|
|
MySQL for Windows staring from version 5.1.
|
|
|
|
This readme does not apply to MySQL versions 5.0
|
|
|
|
or ealier.

The Windows build system uses a tool named CMake to generate build files for
|
|
|
|
a variety of project systems. This tool is combined with a set of jscript
|
|
|
|
files to enable building of MySQL for Windows directly out of a bk clone.
|
|
|
|
The steps required are below.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Step 1
|
|
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
Download and install CMake. It can be downloaded from http://www.cmake.org.
|
|
|
|
Once it is installed, modify your path to make sure you can execute
|
|
|
|
the cmake binary.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Step 2
|
|
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
Download and install bison for Windows. It can be downloaded from
|
|
|
|
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/bison.htm. Please download using
|
|
|
|
the link named "Complete package, excluding sources". This includes an
|
|
|
|
installer that will install bison. After the installer finishes, modify
|
|
|
|
your path so that you can execute bison.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Step 3
|
|
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
Clone your bk tree to any location you like.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Step 4
|
|
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
From the root of your bk clone, execute the command: win\configure <options>.
|

|
|
|
The options right now are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
WITH_INNOBASE_STORAGE_ENGINE Enable particular storage engines
|
|
|
|
WITH_PARTITION_STORAGE_ENGINE
|
|
|
|
WITH_ARCHIVE_STORAGE_ENGINE
|
|
|
|
WITH_BERKELEY_STORAGE_ENGINE
|
|
|
|
WITH_BLACKHOLE_STORAGE_ENGINE
|
|
|
|
WITH_EXAMPLE_STORAGE_ENGINE
|
|
|
|
WITH_FEDERATED_STORAGE_ENGINE
|
|
|
|
WITH_INNOBASE_STORAGE_ENGINE
|
|
|
|
__NT__ Enable named pipe support
|
|
|
|
MYSQL_SERVER_SUFFIX=<suffix> Server suffix, default none
|
|
|
|
COMPILATION_COMMENT=<comment> Server comment, default "Source distribution"
|
|
|
|
MYSQL_TCP_PORT=<port> Server port, default 3306
|
|
|
|
CYBOZU
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
So the command line could look like:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
win\configure WITH_INNOBASE_STORAGE_ENGINE WITH_PARTITION_STORAGE_ENGINE MYSQL_SERVER_SUFFIX=-pro

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Step 5
|
|
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
From the root of your bk clone, execute one of the batch files to generate the type
|
|
|
|
of project files you desire.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For Visual Studio 8, do win\build-vs8.
|
|
|
|
For Visual Studio 7.1, do win\build-vs71.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We will support building with nmake in the near future.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Step 6
|
|
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
From the root of your bk clone, start your build.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For Visual Studio, simply execute mysql.sln. This will start the IDE and you can
|
|
|
|
click the build solution menu option.

Current issues
|
|
|
|
--------------
|
2006-03-23 16:34:52 +01:00
|
|
|
1. After changing configuration (eg. adding or removing a storage engine), it
|
|
|
|
may be necessary to clean the build tree to remove any stale objects.
