h3. Step 1: Install Visual C++ 2008 Express
20 1 sph
21 1 sph
22 6 sph
h3. Step 2: Install Visual C++ 2008 Redistributables. 
23 1 sph
24 1 sph
These will be needed for OpenSSL.
25 1 sph
26 1 sph
27 1 sph
h3. Step 3: Install Platform SDK
28 6 sph

h3. Step 5: Install OpenSSL
32 1 sph
33 1 sph
The first error message can be ignored as the Redistributables were installed.

Now you have to copy the "C:\OpenSSL\lib\VC\ssleay32MT.lib" file to "C:\OpenSSL\lib\VC\ssleay32.lib". 
36 5 sph
37 1 sph
Do the same with "C:\OpenSSL\lib\VC\static\ssleay32MT.lib" to "C:\OpenSSL\lib\VC\static\ssleay32.lib".

h3. Step 8: Update the environment variables
46 1 sph
47 1 sph
Go to the system settings (Start => Control Panel => System), go to the "Advanced" tab and click on Environment Variables.
48 1 sph
49 1 sph
First you'll have to edit the "Path" variable. Append the following to the current value:
50 1 sph
<pre>C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.1\Bin;C:\Program Files\Git\bin;C:\OpenSSL\bin</pre>
51 1 sph
52 1 sph
Next, create the following new system variables:
53 1 sph
54 1 sph
* LIB: 
55 1 sph
<pre>C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.1\Lib;C:\OpenSSL\lib\VC\static;C:\OpenSSL\lib</pre>
56 1 sph
* INCLUDE:
57 1 sph
<pre>C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.1\Include;C:\OpenSSL\include</pre>
58 1 sph
* QMAKESPEC:
59 1 sph
<pre>win32-msvc2005</pre>

h3. Step 9: Compile and Install Qt
62 1 sph
63 1 sph
Create a directory (e.g. C:\dev\) and unpack Qt.
64 1 sph
65 8 Datafreak
Now open the Visual Studio 2008 command line.
66 1 sph
67 1 sph
And cd to the directory containing Qt. Now you can configure the Qt installation with the following command:
68 8 Datafreak
<pre>configure.exe -platform win32-msvc2008 -static -release -qt-sql-sqlite -no-qt3support -qt-zlib -qt-gif -qt-libpng -qt-libmng -qt-libtiff -qt-libjpeg -openssl-linked -confirm-license -opensource -no-phonon -no-dbus -prefix C:\dev\qt-win-opensource-src-4.5.3</pre>
69 1 sph
70 1 sph
Then you can compiled Qt with these commands:
71 1 sph
<pre>
72 8 Datafreak
nmake
73 1 sph
</pre>
74 1 sph
75 1 sph
You can close the prompt after this.
76 1 sph
77 1 sph
78 10 Datafreak
h3. Step 10: Update the environment variables again
79 6 sph
80 1 sph
After installing Qt, you will have to append the following:
81 1 sph
82 1 sph
* Path
83 8 Datafreak
<pre>;C:\dev\qt-win-opensource-src-4.5.3\bin</pre>
84 1 sph
85 1 sph
* LIB: 
86 8 Datafreak
<pre>;C:\dev\qt-win-opensource-src-4.5.3\lib</pre>
87 1 sph
88 1 sph
* INCLUDE:
89 8 Datafreak
<pre>;C:\dev\qt-win-opensource-src-4.5.3\include</pre>
90 1 sph

h3. Step 11: Compile Quassel
93 1 sph
94 8 Datafreak
Open a new Visual Studio 2008 command line and go to the "C:\dev" directory again. Use git to download the Quassel source code.
95 1 sph
<pre>git clone git://git.quassel-irc.org/quassel.git</pre>
96 1 sph
97 1 sph
This will create a new directory "quassel" containing the source. When you want to update Quassel later, you just have to go to this directory (C:\dev\quassel) and do a "git pull" to update the source code.
98 1 sph
99 1 sph
Next, create a new directory in "C:\dev" in which Quassel will be built. In our case, we will simply call it "build". Change to this directory and enter the following command to configure Quassel:
100 9 Datafreak
<pre>cmake -G"NMake Makefiles" C:\dev\quassel -DSTATIC=1 -DWANT_CORE=ON -DWANT_QTCLIENT=ON -DWANT_MONO=ON -DWITH_PHONON=OFF -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DLINK_EXTRA=dwmapi,Version,shlwapi</pre>
101 1 sph
102 1 sph
And after that:
103 1 sph
<pre>nmake</pre>
104 1 sph
105 1 sph
This will build Quasselcore, Quasselclient and Quasselmonolithic which can be found in the "C:\dev\build" directory.
