Notes for compiling on Windows

Justin Clift edited this page May 3, 2016 · 25 revisions

These are initial notes for compiling on Windows

  • MS Visual Studio 2013 (as both compiler + IDE) works
  • Complete setup, build, and packaging instructions are here.
  • Qt Creator (as IDE) works, using MSVC 2013 as the compiler
  • Instructions for setting it up and building haven't yet been written up

Notes for Qt Creator

  • Open the src/src.pro file first, run lupdate, then lrelease
    • This avoids the error about missing translation files, that happens if you open and use the sqlitebrowser.pro file first (in a newly cloned repo)
  • After doing the above, close the src/src.pro file, then open the sqlitebrowser.pro one
    • Choose the msvc 2013 64-bit kit for the project (it will ask when you open the .pro file)
    • Compile/debug as per normal
