h1. Build Quassel on Windows Mingw
h2. You have two possibilitys to build Quassel with Mingw
# Build Quassel with QT only
# Build Quassel with Windows KDE
h2. Build Quassel with QT only
h2. Software Requirements
* "QT SDK":http://qt.nokia.com/downloads
* "DBGHELP SDK":http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms679294(VS.85).aspx
* "CMake":http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html
* "MinGW Utils 0.3":http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MinGW%20Utilities/mingw-utils/mingw-utils-0.3/mingw-utils-0.3.tar.gz/download
h2. Installation
h3. Step 1: Install QT SDK
Download and install the QT SDK and select mingw to install with QT.
h3. Step 2: Install MinGW Utils
Download MinGW Utils and extrect them to 'mingw'\ 'qt\version'\mingw
h3. Step 3: Install DBGHELP SDK
Download and install DBGHELP
h3. Step 4: Generate the dbghelp.dll.a for mingw
* Open a command line
* add your mingw installation to %PATH% (set PATH=%PATH%;mingwdir)
* move to 'dbghelp'\sdk\lib\i386
* type "reimp -d dbghelp.lib"
* type "dlltool -k -d dbghelp.def -l dbghelp.dll.a"
* copy 'dbghelp'\sdk\lib\i386\dbghelp.dll.a to 'mingw'\lib
* copy 'dbghelp'\sdk\inc\i386\dbghelp.h to 'mingw"\include
h3. Step 5: Install CMake
h2. Checkout Quassel Mingw branch
* "git clone git://gitorious.org/quassel/quassel.git"
* "cd quassel"
* "git remote add -f theonering git://gitorious.org/~theonering/quassel/theonerings-quassel.git"
* "git checkout theonering/mingw"
h2. Compile Quassel
* open a command line
* add mingw to your path (set PATH=%PATH%;'mingwdir')
* add cmake to your path (analog to mingw)
* add QT to yo your path, 'qt\version'\qt\bin
* switch to the directory where you checked out Quassel
* type "mkdir build"
* type "cd build"
* type "cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" .."
* type "mingw32-make"
h2. Build Quassel with Windows KDE
# got to the "Emerge Tutorial":http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build/KDE4/Windows/emerge
# check out emerge and set up the kdesettings.bat acording to the kde tutorial
# install mingw4 "emerge mingw4"
# follow steps 3 and 4 from "Build Quassel with QT only"
# copy 'dbghelp'\sdk\lib\i386 to your 'kderoot'/lib
# copy 'dbghelp'\sdk\inc\i386 to your 'kderoot'/include
# install quassel "emerge quassel" emerge will install all dependency's for you
# when emerge has finished all jobs, start quassel
The steps above would also be possible with msvc2008
