The first step is of course to download all the packages required.  You can extract them pretty much anywhere but for the purposes of this guide I used C:\MinGW.  Keep in mind that C:\MingGW will be the root directory (/) and that in MSYS /usr is the same as /, therefore /usr/local when viewed from the windows side will be C:\MinGW\local.

Setting up your Build Environment

The first step is of course to download all the packages required. You can extract them pretty much anywhere but for the purposes of this guide I used C:\MinGW. Keep in mind that C:\MingGW will be the root directory (/) and that in MSYS /usr is the same as /, therefore /usr/local when viewed from the windows side will be C:\MinGW\local.

The last thing you need is Perl. The MSYS version is 5.6.1 which is not new enough to pass the configure script for a lot of programs including Bluefish. I use the MSYS 5.6.1 version for autoconf/automake/autogen.sh and an external version such as ActiveState's in /opt/perl for anything that needs a newer version.


You only need to set a few environment variables and settings as follows:

PATH="/bin:/local/bin:/opt/perl/bin"
C_INCLUDE_PATH="/include:/local/include"
LIBRARY_PATH="/lib:/local/lib"
echo /local/share/aclocal > /share/aclocal/dirlist
ln -s /local/bin/libxml2-2.dll /local/bin/libxml2.dll


To strip the prefixes from the Makefiles before you build Bluefish you can download or create this simple script I made, strip_prefix.sh. Place it in /usr/local/bin or somewhere in the path.

strip_prefix.sh:

#!/bin/sh

for i in $(find ./ -name Makefile | grep -v plugin); do
    echo Checking: $i
    cat $i | sed s/'${prefix}\/'// | sed s/'${exec_prefix}\/'// > ${i}.tst
    rm $i
    mv ${i}.tst $i
done


Building Bluefish

Check out the latest windows branch:

svn checkout https://bluefish.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/bluefish/branches/bluefish_windows

Run autogen.sh with perl 5.6.1 and then switch /bin/perl to your 5.8.1 or newer version or perl and run configure:

./configure LDFLAGS=-lgnurx CFLAGS=-mwindows
./strip_prefix.sh
make

Drop the CFLAGS option to configure for a console window for debug output and of course run configure with '--enable-debugging-output' for a full debug build.


Building External Packages

If you wish to build your own versions of the custom packages these are the configure parameters used for the onws provided.

Aspell 0.60.0

./configure --prefix=/local --disable-rpath --enable-win32-relocatable

Enchant 1.5.0

./configure --prefix=/local --enable-aspell --disable-ispell --disable-myspell

PCRE 7.9

./configure --prefix=/local

gucharmap 2.26
