Building glean under Windows

Note : this document asumes that you are using Microsoft Visual C++ 6 (VC6).

Other software you'll need

Currently glean doesn't build with the STL included with VC6. glean has been verified to build with the STLport implementation.
 

Obtain the source code

Obtain the .zip file containing glean from ftp://ftp.mesa3d.org/mesa/contrib/.

Unzip the file: 

    pkunzip -d glean_1_0.zip c:\
    cd glean_1_0
This will create a subdirectory named glean_1_0 and make it your current directory.

Set the GLEAN_ROOT environment variable

To compile or run glean, you will need to set the environment variable GLEAN_ROOT to the full pathname of the glean source directory. Open a dos prompt and type 
    set GLEAN_ROOT=c:\glean_1_0
Be sure to set the environment variable each time you want to compile or run glean.
 

Set the VC6 environment variables

To use the command-line tools, you will have to set some environment variables. There is a batch file in VC6's bin directory called vcvars32.bat that contains the necessary commands. Just execute this in the same dos prompt as the previous step and you'll be set to go.
 

Set Makefile options

Edit GLEAN_ROOT\make\common.win and modify the configuration variables according to your preferences. Some of the variables that are most likely to need customization are:

STL_DIR
        This variables specifies the directory containing include files of the STLport.

LIBTIFF_INC_DIR
LIBTIFF_LIB_DIR
        These variables specify the directories that contain the libtiff include files and library resp.
 

Build glean

When you've finished editing the Makefile, simply type 
    cd src
    nmake /f makefile.win
This will build glean and the other tools in the suite, and install them in $GLEAN_ROOT/bin.
