RE: [Linphone-developers] Building Linphone on WindowsXP

[Adrian Kaehler]

Simon,

  Ok, thanks for the help.  I did check out that page you mentioned already, 
and have been using what it has there as my main means of getting started.  I 
was trying to build everything in Visual Studio with the Microsoft compiler.  
Is there any reason to believe that this is a hopeless endeavor, or is this 
just not the way you chose to do things thus far?

 -Adrian

Hi,

Thanks for your interest in linphone !
I've wrote this page that tells a little about building on linphone:

http://www.linphone.org/index.php/v2/linphone_for_windows_with_video

Basically you need the wxDev-Cpp IDE that uses mingw (gcc on windows).
You need to compile all linphone's dependencies (speex, theora, libosip2...) 
first and install their libraries and header files in for example C:
\DevCpp\linphone-build\lib for .a or .dll libraries and C:
\DevCpp\linphone-build\include
For example for theora, place the theora public headers into C:
\DevCpp\linphone-build\include\theora

And finally use cvs and tar.gz packages because the .dev (wxdev-cpp project
files) are not included in the tar.gz.
Normally you 'll find .dev files for oRTP, mediastreamer2, exosip and coreapi 
that you'll have to build in this order (and resulting libraries in C:
\DevCpp\linphone-build\lib )
