+## Using OpenSUSE Tumbleweed in a VM ##\r
+\r
+### Host Preparation ###\r
+\r
+On the host need to ensure the viking-1.X.tar.gz file is available:\r
+ cd code/viking\r
+ make dist\r
+\r
+Generate help PDF\r
+ dblatex help/C/viking.xml\r
+This could be done in the VM but installing dblatex requires ~650Mb install (so a waste if already available on the host).\r
+\r
+### Guest Preparation (root) ###\r
+\r
+In the guest ensure availability of build dependent mingw32 / mingw64 packages (not in standard Tumbleweed repo ATM)\r
+ # As root\r
+ zypper ar -f http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/windows:/mingw:/win32/openSUSE_Tumbleweed windows\r
+ zypper ar -f http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/windows:/mingw:/win64/openSUSE_Tumbleweed windows64\r
+ zypper ar -f http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ecsos/openSUSE_Tumbleweed windows-extra-ecsos\r
+ zypper ar -f http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ecsos:/pipelight/openSUSE_Tumbleweed windows-extra-ecsos2\r
+ # Ensure a standard user account is available for the build e.g:\r
+ #useradd -m build\r
+ #passwd build\r
+\r
+Install build packages as listed in the .spec file or when running the rpmbuild it will tell you what packages are required\r
+ zypper install mingw32-cross-gcc\r
+ #etc...\r
+\r
+For the MSI generation you will need\r
+ zypper install mingw32-cross-nsis\r
+\r
+And ensure FindProcDLL is available for NSIS\r
+if [ ! -e /usr/share/nsis/Plugins/FindProcDLL.dll ];\r
+ wget http://nsis.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/images/3/3c/FindProc.zip\r
+ unzip FindProc.zip FindProcDLL.dll -d /usr/share/nsis/Plugins/\r
+fi\r
+\r
+Make code accessible via a shared folder\r
+So add a suitable Shared Folder to the virtual machine\r
+Remember the build user will need mount access priviledges - if using VirtualBox then:\r
+ #As root\r
+ #usermod -a -G vboxsf <builduser>\r
+\r
+### Guest Preparation (builduser) ###\r
+\r
+Go to the code location\r
+ cd /media/sf_Code/viking\r
+\r
+Copy source package as generated by make dist on the host to the package build area, or even just link to it e.g.:\r
+ ln -s /media/sf_Code/viking/viking-1.6.1.tar.gz /home/build/rpmbuild/SOURCES/viking-1.6.1.tar.gz\r
+\r
+### Build / Install / Run on Guest ###\r
+\r
+Now perform the build\r
+ rpmbuild -ba mingw-viking.spec\r
+\r
+Install locally\r
+ sudo rpm -i /home/build/rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/ming*-viking-*.noarch.rpm\r
+\r
+Generate .msi\r
+ cd win32\r
+ ./installer-mingw.sh\r
+\r
+Install .msi\r
+ wine installer/viking-*.exe\r
+\r
+Run viking.exe with wine\r
+ cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Viking/\r
+ wine viking.exe\r

+# Native Build #\r
\r
The build under Windows follows the same process as the traditional Linux build:\r
\r
\r
For further details (especially about how to set up the development dependencies) see:\r
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/viking/index.php?title=WindowsBuildInstructions\r
+\r
+These instructions have now been turned turned into a series of scripts to produce the Viking installer:\r
+\r
+1. prepare.bat\r
+2a. configure_and_make.bat\r
+2b. make.bat\r
+3. installer.bat\r
+\r
+The scripts are aimed at a pristine Windows XP installation.\r
+Using *prepare.bat* will attempt to *download* and *install* various Open Source software to aid this process.\r
+An administrator level account is needed to run this which will *modify* your system.\r
+\r
+The other scripts simply make use of these (assumed) available system programs.\r
+\r
+This setup is for dedicated usage to build Viking, primarily under Wine with:\r
+\r
+ ./generate_install.sh\r
+\r
+Such that any Windows system (or of course a Virtual Machine) can be simply deleted (e.g. rm -rf /.wine) and recreated fully via the scripts.\r
+\r
+From Viking 1.4 to 1.6.X this was how the Windows viking-W.X.Y.Z.exe installer file was produced.\r
+\r
+Notionally the standard configure + make stages should still work, but the Cross build is now the supported method.\r
+Thus the prepare + installer scripts are no longer maintained and are for reference only.\r
