[Owncloud] Building the Windows Client Issues

Thu Oct 24 08:11:51 UTC 2013

Hello everyone, I've been trying to build the windows client for a few days
now and I'm having some issues doing it. At first, I just want to build it
as-is, without making any modification, but I always get stuck. I think
that the guidehttp://doc.owncloud.org/desktop/1.4/building.html has some
issues as well, either it's not finished or outdated in some fashion...

I started by adding the repositories for OpenSUSE12.2 (but the step that
talks about
http://pmbs.links2linux.org/download/mingw:/32/openSUSE_12.1/x86_64/mingw32-cross-nsis-plugin-processes-0-1.1.x86_64.rpm
is
broken, I had to find the same rpm somewhere else because the link has been
dead for a few weeks now)

Then the generic build instructions, when I use mingw32-cmake on ocsync, I
get that output:

linux-taib:/home/jtessier/win/ocsync-build # mingw32-cmake

Then I run make and there's a bunch of text outputting (I won't paste it
all because I don't think it's all relevant) and it seems to work (it
doesn't fail, at least)

And then I go to build mirall with

mingw32-cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Debug" ../mirall
-DCSYNC_BUILD_PATH=/home/jtessier/win/ocsync-build
-DCSYNC_INCLUDE_PATH=/home/jtessier/win/ocsync/src
-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/home/jtessier/win/mirall/admin/win/Toolchain-mingw32-openSUSE.cmake

And here's the output, there are some warnings here and there but it seems
like it worked?

I'm not used to building stuff with cmake, but I know C++ errors when I see
them [image: :-1:]

I'm kinda stuck there, I really wanted to play around with the source and
see if I could make it do crazy things but being stuck on building the
thing is really hindering my progress, thanks in advance :)
