Introduction ---------------- - -This is the directory where you configure and compile the Windows -version of Tcl. This directory also contains source files for Tcl -that are specific to Microsoft Windows. - -The information in this file is maintained on the web at: - - http://www.tcl.tk/doc/howto/compile.html#win - -2. Compiling Tcl ----------------- - -In order to compile Tcl for Windows, you need the following: - - Tcl 8.6 Source Distribution (plus any patches) - - and - - Visual C++ 6 or newer - - or - - Linux + MinGW-w64 [http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/] - (win32 or win64) - - or - - Cygwin + MinGW-w64 [http://cygwin.com/install.html] - (win32 or win64) - - or - - Darwin + MinGW-w64 [http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/] - (win32 or win64) - - or - - Msys + MinGW-w64 [http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/] - (win32 or win64) - - or - - Msys + MinGW [http://www.mingw.org/download.shtml] - (win32 only) - - -In practice, this release is built with Visual C++ 6.0 and the TEA -Makefile. - -If you are building with Visual C++, in the "win" subdirectory of the -source release, you will find "makefile.vc". This is the makefile for the -Visual C++ compiler and uses the stock NMAKE tool. Detailed directions for -using it, are in the comments of "makefile.vc". A quick example would be: - - C:\tcl_source\win\>nmake -f makefile.vc - -There is also a Developer Studio workspace and project file, too, if you -would like to use them. - -If you are building with Linux, Cygwin or Msys, you can use the configure -script that lives in the win subdirectory. The Linux/Cygwin/Msys based -configure/build process works just like the UNIX one, so you will want -to refer to ../unix/README for available configure options. - -If you want 64-bit executables (x86_64), you need to configure using -the --enable-64bit option. Make sure that the x86_64-w64-mingw32 -compiler is present. For Cygwin this compiler can be found in the -"mingw64-x86_64-gcc-core" package, which can be installed through -the normal Cygwin install process. If you only want 32-bit executables, -the "mingw64-i686-gcc-core" package is what you need. For Linux, Darwin -and Msys, you can download a suitable win32 or win64 compiler from -[https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/] - -Use the Makefile "install" target to install Tcl. It will install it -according to the prefix options you provided in the correct directory -structure. - -Note that in order to run tclsh86.exe, you must ensure that tcl86.dll is -on your path, in the system directory, or in the directory containing -tclsh86.exe. - -Note: Tcl no longer provides support for Win32s. - -3. Test suite -------------- - -This distribution contains an extensive test suite for Tcl. Some of the -tests are timing dependent and will fail from time to time. If a test is -failing consistently, please send us a bug report with as much detail as -you can manage to our tracker: - - http://core.tcl.tk/tcl/reportlist - -In order to run the test suite, you build the "test" target using the -appropriate makefile for your compiler. |
