== Building GStreamer under Win32 ==
|
|
|
|
There are different makefiles that can be used to build GStreamer with the usual Microsoft
|
|
compiling tools.
|
|
|
|
The Makefile is meant to be used with the GNU make program and the free
|
|
version of the Microsoft compiler (http://msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/vctoolkit2003/). You also
|
|
have to modify your system environment variables to use it from the command-line. You will also
|
|
need a working Platform SDK for Windows that is available for free from Microsoft.
|
|
|
|
The projects/makefiles will generate automatically some source files needed to compile
|
|
GStreamer. That requires that you have installed on your system some GNU tools and that they are
|
|
available in your system PATH.
|
|
|
|
The GStreamer project depends on other libraries, namely :
|
|
- GLib
|
|
- popt
|
|
- libxml2
|
|
- gettext
|
|
- libiconv
|
|
|
|
There is now an existing package that has all these dependencies built with MSVC7.1. It exists either
|
|
a precompiled librairies and headers in both Release and Debug mode, or as the source package to build
|
|
it yourself. You can find it on http://mukoli.free.fr/gstreamer/deps/.
|
|
|
|
NOTE : GNU tools needed that you can find on http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/
|
|
- GNU flex (tested with 2.5.4)
|
|
- GNU bison (tested with 1.35)
|
|
and http://www.mingw.org/
|
|
- GNU make (tested with 3.80)
|
|
|
|
NOTE : the generated files from the -auto makefiles will be available soon separately on the net
|
|
for convenience (people who don't want to install GNU tools).
|
|
|
|
== Installation on the system ==
|
|
|
|
By default, GStreamer needs a registry. You have to generate it using "gst-register.exe". It will create
|
|
the file in c:\gstreamer\registry.xml that will hold all the plugins you can use.
|
|
|
|
You should install the GStreamer core in c:\gstreamer\bin and the plugins in c:\gstreamer\plugins. Both
|
|
directories should be added to your system PATH. The library dependencies should be installed in c:\usr.
|
|
|
|
For example, my current setup is :
|
|
|
|
C:\gstreamer\registry.xml
|
|
C:\gstreamer\bin\gst-inspect.exe
|
|
C:\gstreamer\bin\gst-launch.exe
|
|
C:\gstreamer\bin\gst-register.exe
|
|
C:\gstreamer\bin\gstbytestream.dll
|
|
C:\gstreamer\bin\gstelements.dll
|
|
C:\gstreamer\bin\gstoptimalscheduler.dll
|
|
C:\gstreamer\bin\gstspider.dll
|
|
C:\gstreamer\bin\libgtreamer-0.8.dll
|
|
C:\gstreamer\plugins\gst-libs.dll
|
|
C:\gstreamer\plugins\gstmatroska.dll
|
|
|
|
C:\usr\bin\iconv.dll
|
|
C:\usr\bin\intl.dll
|
|
C:\usr\bin\libglib-2.0-0.dll
|
|
C:\usr\bin\libgmodule-2.0-0.dll
|
|
C:\usr\bin\libgobject-2.0-0.dll
|
|
C:\usr\bin\libgthread-2.0-0.dll
|
|
C:\usr\bin\libxml2.dll
|
|
C:\usr\bin\popt.dll
