how-to compile owncloud client on Windows

[Antonio Giovanni Pacicca]

HI,

I need to build owncloud client for Windows 7 but i can't find any kind of
how-to or help that seems to work. There is some easy way to do this with
qt creator or else?

Sorry for my english
Thanks

Hi Antonio,

I don't think anybody has natively compiled ownCloud for Windows.
Here you find instructions how to cross-compile it running Linux:

Further, it tried to compile it using Cygwin. I attached the script
which does the job. However, it is of not much use, because it compiles
the owncloud client for the Cygwin X interface.

Cheers,
Luke

Hi,

Klaas told me that it is now possible to compile csync natively for Windows.
Does anybody known how?

I tried and got an unknown type error:
*winbase.h:1538:77: Fehler: unbekannter Typname: »va_list«**

Woboq *had the same problem and pasted compilation results here:
http://pastebin.com/hNwaTWTm

Below you find a log of what I did so far.

Thanks,
Luke

PS: My goal is to implement change notifications instead of polling for
Windows. Compiling natively seems the best choice.





Install Cygwin with package wget

wget http://apt-cyg.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/apt-cyg
chmod +x apt-cyg
mv apt-cyg /usr/local/bin/

apt-cyg install git

apt-cyg install ca-certificates

git clone https://github.com/LukeOwncloud/mirall.git

git clone git://git.csync.org/users/freitag/csync.git ocsync

mkdir ocsync-build
mkdir mirall-build

cd ocsync
git checkout dav

Install Cmake and minGw.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Installer/mingw-get-inst/

Add C++ compiler and MinGW developer kit

Add c:\MinGW\bin\ to path

http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/cmake-2.8.10.1-win32-x86.exe

Open cmd change to ocsync-build

cmake -G "Eclipse CDT4 - MinGW Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Debug"
-DLOG_TO_CALLBACK=ON -DWITH_LOG4C=OFF ../ocsync
