Re: muse for windows

I see no issue with pkg-config in msys2.

pacman -S mingw-w64-{i686 or x86_64}-pkg-config

It's there and it detects my libraries. I added a Windows folder, and inside the zip file there is the list of my libraries from pkg-config.

I am sorry, but work takes precedence and I am halting everybody.

I also found a strange behavior in cmake. I am trying to avoid my zip and put the last 2 fixes in the CMakeLists.txt files. In one of them, I wrote this:

Code: Select all

if (ALSA_SUPPORT)
       alsamidi.cpp
       alsatimer.cpp
       rtctimer.cpp
else(ALSA_SUPPORT)
       qttimer.cpp
endif(ALSA_SUPPORT)
Strangely, during compilation it always halts at rtctimer, seemingly meaning that it detects ALSA_SUPPORT wrong, despite I have it set to OFF. I need to comment out the rtctimer.cpp to proceed. This is the CMakeLists in the driver folder.

By the way, I will look at an IDE. I started to see Codeblocks.

I finished all fixes. I'm having issues to push to git, because of a proxy. I'll try later again.

Wow, that's neat. PC just works. Hm, wonder why I had trouble...
Carry on, then.

Thanks.

My knowledge of git is still too limited. I am using Git extensions, actually. It didn't allow me to fork from your project, as it was already forked from mine. So I just cloned and changed things. When I try to push in your branch, it says obviously permission denied. So, I still don't know how to update git with my changes.

I paste here the diffs, if you can use them in your branch. I removed the zip in the windows folder.

Tim, let me know if you cannot use the diff. Then, I'll try to fork again, do all the changes again, and try to push a request to your branch.

Hi, the patch would not apply cleanly.
The patch contains changes that were already applied to master.
Try to update your branch from our latest master, resorting even to diff files if necessary.
Then submit the difference between yours and ours.

I think the difference was mainly only removal of the zip file thing?
I wasn't sure so I didn't want to hand-edit or shoe-horn anything in.

Tim.

Hi, howya makin' out?
Shall I try to shoe-horn the patch in? Sorry I got sidetracked for a while but I can try again.
Or if you've moved beyond it, I'll leave it alone?

I did make a few recent changes in the top CMake file.
I discovered we were not linking thread support system libraries into our core.
So I followed some advice (link is in ChangeLog) about the best chance of portability regarding threads support in the cmake file,
which means I added the modern "find_package(Threads)" thing and linked with Threads::Threads in the cmake file.
Hope it works on Win, or at least better, or at least doesn't break things.

Thanks.

No worries, these things need to take time.
Apologies if this has been written somewhere already but I didn't notice. I'd like to try and build under windows, what packages need to be installed so far?

On top of that, I have to move an entire server from Debian to Arch... so my free time will be dead for a while.

So, I can assist you with duplicating my setup. The issue is that I first compiled Ardour, which has tens of extra libraries, most of which are custom built (I wrote PKGBUILD files for a good deal of them). Then, I started with MusE. So, I don't know at this point which libraries it is using.
I have put a Windows folder in my MusE clone, and there is a file with all the libraries I have installed.

Now, to start from a clean environment, some test is needed. I would suggest you start with MSYS2, then add all the relevant mingw build packages. To build MusE, you need to launch the mingw64 prompt (not msys2 prompt). You need to install any mingw related package directly within the mingw64 prompt.

You can even start to compile and see what's wrong. There is still something missing that was in my branch, so you will get a few errors. But you should be able to see the missing libraries. Then, if they are included in mingw, you can just install them with pacman. If not, I have them. I can send you the whole packages (better by email), or I can post PKGBUILD files here.

I have put a Windows folder in my MusE clone, and there is a file with all the libraries I have installed.
Quick note: Robert that Windows directory is still in our master tree. HTH.

I am very sorry for reappearing after one year, but I have some severe family issues.

I started over, with a clean environment (my previous one was shared with Ardour, so I could not give exact replication instructions). Now I can. So, I hope it is still useful.

I put all the instructions in this webpage: https://musicsecrets.euniversity.pub/muse.html (work in progress). You can find all the required mingw packages, plus some packages that are not in the msys2 repository, which need to be compiled as per instructions. There may be some more of them, but with this setup you get to the point Muse starts compiling.

Compilation instructions are in the Compile Muse script, but I suggest to take each command and run it separately, at this stage.

Compilation fails in the files that I indicated previously, which are still not fixed (M_PI_4 issue, etc.). With this replication, it is easy to fix those things in the code. I still have the old build, so if something is missing I can look it up. The end result I had is that I could completely compile Muse, but it had some issues when running.

Hi aquilarubra,

Nice to hear from you, though sorry to hear about your family issues.

Thanks for the instructions. Is it all built through cross compiling? It seems a lot of if requires Arch, as I don't use it do you have some pointers on what needs to be adapted to build on other distros?

What about building on Windows itself is the same toolchain available there?

No no. It's natively built on Windows via the msys2 package. If you follow instructions, it's all there.
Msys2 is based on arch (which by the way is my usual distro), so the package system is almost same.
