Re: [Linphone-developers] Best plaform to compile Windows EXE

[arpit modi]

Hi Henrik,

Thank you very much for sharing detailed information. :)

I will definitely give it a try and let you know how it goes.

When i had tried earlier with "make setup.exe" it was throwing below errors:

cp: cannot stat `/usr/local/bin/freetype6.dll': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat `/usr/local/bin/intl.dll': No such file or directory

So above DLLs are missing, and finally ended up with below error which i guess is theme its trying to find.

make[1]: *** [gtk-cherrypick] Error 1

===============================

If you have any idea about above errors, please share.

Moreover, Can you please let me know if you were able to see phone GUI after installing the build .exe in windows machine?

Thanks,

It really is rather complex and I'm not sure if it still works...  I did this on a Fedora 21, with its mingw64-32 stuff, with Linphone 3.8.5.

The entirety of my Linphone stuff lived under ~/win32, so the build script makes assumptions about that.

I didn't make proper patches for the things mentioned in README.md, but they have very straightforward instructions I think.

I manually collected the external, run-time DLL dependencies into a directory, which I figured out after trying to run the compiled Linphone a dozen times... and they are the following:

~/win32/LinphoneDLLs$ ls
iconv.dll  libantlr3c.dll  libbzrtp-0.dll  libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll  libgsm-1.dll  libintl-8.dll  libopus-0.dll  libpolarssl-0.dll  libspeex-1.dll  libspeexdsp-1.dll  libsqlite3-0.dll  libwinpthread-1.dll  libxml2-2.dll  zlib1.dll

Build.sh also assumes these directories, but it's easy to change if you want.

I have no idea what I had to install onto my Fedora to make the cross-compilation work at all.

Good luck :)

@Amit, yeah actually i wanted to do some customization in default linphone and generate .exe for the same.

@Henrik, That's really impressive. Can i please get those patches and steps? It will be really appreciated.

Thanks,

It is possible, but not without some considerable patching to the automake stuff, in particular the paths that assume MSYS environment rather than a generic MinGW one (eg. it expects to load Windows libs from /usr/lib rather than from wherever MinGW is, as on Linux /usr/lib contains only Linux libraries).  I have built the console part of Linphone and some plugins in the past.  I vaguely remember posting some of my patches related to this to this mailing list in the past (and a lot of thanks goes to one of the other members for his help in pointing me in the right direction when I got stuck)

Well yeah, you are right.
But i am not even getting a pig, that is why looking for a proper way here. :D

Jokes apart,

I have already tried with Windows 8.1 and it did not go right.

Is Linux (ubuntu) is able to generate .exe by compiling linphone source?

Thanks,

Hi Amit,

Thanks for your valuable response.

Do you prefer any specific version of Windows OS or any version will be good?

Is there any changes to compile in Ubuntu linux and generate exe?

Thanks,
Arpit Modi

Hello,

Please use a windows machine with VS 2015 installed with the command line tools for C++.

Thank You,

Dear Team,

I wanted to build and compile windows exe setup for linphone.

I am referring steps mentioned in README file.

I have tried multiple ways and platforms but not succeeded so far.
I am pretty much sure, i might be doing something wrong.

Can anyone please let me know if its possible to generate windows setup.exe file by compiling linphone on Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS?

If yes, then where do i get missing files which are showing while executing "make setup.exe".

Error log: http://pastebin.com/fSyP0BUX

If no, then which is the best OS to compile and generate windows setup.exe?

Looking forward to some positive responses.

Thanks,
Arpit Modi
