h2. Installation
17 1 sph
18 1 sph
h3. Step 1: Visual C++ 2005 Express
19 1 sph
20 1 sph
21 1 sph
h3. Step 2: Visual C++ 2008 Redistributables. 
22 1 sph
23 1 sph
These will be needed for OpenSSL.
24 1 sph
25 1 sph
26 1 sph
h3. Step 3: Platform SDK
27 1 sph
28 1 sph
29 1 sph
h3. Step 4: OpenSSL
30 1 sph
31 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". 
34 1 sph
35 1 sph
Do the same with "C:\OpenSSL\lib\VC\static\ssleay32MT.lib" to "C:\OpenSSL\lib\VC\static\ssleay32.lib". 
36 1 sph
37 1 sph
Now open the "C:\OpenSSL\include\openssl\ossl_typ.h" file with an editor and comment out line 178.

h3. Step 6: CMake

h3. Step 7: Fix the environment variables
47 1 sph
48 1 sph
Go to the system settings (Start => Control Panel => System), go to the "Advanced" tab and click on Environment Variables.
49 1 sph
50 1 sph
First you'll have to edit the "Path" variable. Append the following to the current value:
51 1 sph
<pre>C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.1\Bin;C:\Program Files\Git\bin;C:\OpenSSL\bin</pre>
52 1 sph
53 1 sph
Next, create the following new system variables:
54 1 sph
55 1 sph
* LIB: 
56 1 sph
<pre>C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.1\Lib;C:\OpenSSL\lib\VC\static;C:\OpenSSL\lib</pre>
57 1 sph
* INCLUDE:
58 1 sph
<pre>C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.1\Include;C:\OpenSSL\include</pre>
59 1 sph
* QMAKESPEC:
60 1 sph
<pre>win32-msvc2005</pre>
61 1 sph
62 1 sph
h3. Step 8: Qt
63 1 sph
64 1 sph
Create a directory (e.g. C:\dev\) and unpack Qt.
65 1 sph
66 1 sph
Now open the Visual Studio 2005 command line.
67 1 sph
68 1 sph
And cd to the directory containing Qt. Now you can configure the Qt installation with the following command:
69 1 sph
<pre>configure -platform win32-msvc2005 -static -release -qt-sql-sqlite -no-qt3support -qt-zlib -qt-gif -qt-libpng -qt-libmng -qt-libtiff -qt-libjpeg -openssl-linked -prefix C:\dev\qt-win-opensource-src-4.4.3 -confirm-license</pre>
70 1 sph
71 1 sph
Then you can compiled Qt with these commands:
72 1 sph
<pre>
73 1 sph
nmake sub-winmain
74 1 sph
nmake sub-moc
75 1 sph
nmake sub-rcc
76 1 sph
nmake sub-uic
77 1 sph
nmake sub-corelib
78 1 sph
nmake sub-xml
79 1 sph
nmake sub-network
80 1 sph
nmake sub-gui
81 1 sph
nmake sub-sql
82 1 sph
nmake sub-script
83 1 sph
nmake sub-testlib
84 1 sph
nmake sub-opengl
85 1 sph
nmake sub-xmlpatterns
86 1 sph
nmake sub-phonon
87 1 sph
nmake sub-svg
88 1 sph
nmake sub-webkit
89 1 sph
nmake sub-plugins
90 1 sph
nmake sub-tools
91 1 sph
nmake sub-tools-qdoc3
92 1 sph
</pre>
93 1 sph
94 1 sph
You can close the prompt after this.
95 1 sph
96 1 sph
97 3 sph
h3. Step 9: Update the environment variables
98 1 sph
99 1 sph
After installing Qt, you will have to append the following:
100 1 sph
101 1 sph
* Path
102 1 sph
<pre>;C:\dev\qt-win-opensource-src-4.4.3\bin</pre>
103 1 sph
104 1 sph
* LIB: 
105 1 sph
<pre>;C:\dev\qt-win-opensource-src-4.4.3\lib</pre>
106 1 sph
107 1 sph
* INCLUDE:
108 1 sph
<pre>;C:\dev\qt-win-opensource-src-4.4.3\include</pre>
109 1 sph
110 1 sph
111 1 sph
h3. Step 10: Quassel
112 1 sph
113 1 sph
Open a new Visual Studio 2005 command line and go to the "C:\dev" directory again. Use git to download the Quassel source code.
114 1 sph
<pre>git clone git://git.quassel-irc.org/quassel.git</pre>
115 1 sph
116 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.
117 1 sph
118 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:
119 1 sph
<pre>cmake -G"NMake Makefiles" C:\dev\quassel -DSTATIC=1 -DWANT_CORE=ON -DWANT_QTCLIENT=ON -DWANT_MONO=ON</pre>
120 1 sph
121 1 sph
And after that:
122 1 sph
<pre>nmake</pre>
123 1 sph
124 1 sph
This will build Quasselcore, Quasselclient and Quasselmonolithic which can be found in the "C:\dev\build" directory.
