To use:
Make sure NSIS is in your %PATH% and type 'scons nsis'
It doesn't currently compile blender first, so make sure you do a
normal 'scons' before this.
* Add WITH_BF_YAFRAY, which per default is 'true', so no visible changes for developers (and users).
Set WITH_BF_YAFRAY to 'false', and you'll save some major compile time :) Also handy if you're strapped for memory and compilation fails on yafray compilation due
to this.
- this commit also has a few whitespace changes and
- made BF_NO_ELBEEM a proper BoolOption. This will be renamed to WITH_BF_ELBEEM in the near future...
* removed unused options BF_VERSE_LIBPATH, BF_VERSE, BF_VERSE_LIBS, since they are not used at all.
* some whitespace mods
There should be no more issues with "libverse.lib" not being found (or anything like
that).
- this patch adds verse support for SCons, which can be enabled by
giving WITH_BF_VERSE=1, ie. on command-line
- this patch also adds a custom lib dir possibility. From the patch description:
"To set a custom ../lib dir, put LCGDIR="path to lib dir, including the platform folder name!" in your user-config.py."
* Fixed win32-vc-config.py so that it links to the proper library. Reported by Brandano.
of the fluidsim can now be disabled with the
flag: BF_NO_ELBEEM='true', e.g. for irix systems.
(The number of ifdefs from the original
patch was reduced, and the defines are now
only necessary when elbeem is switched off.)
- particle generation option is available again
* Applied patch #4012 by Joseph Eagar. The patch provides a way to quickly assign a list
of libraries to build with debug symbols. Usage:
scons BF_QUICKDEBUG=src,bf_blenkernel,bf_blenlib
+ SCons support for pthreads-win32. Library will be committed shortly into
lib/windows, so be sure to check commit list and update that as well
when the pthread lib is available.
* when WITH_BF_STATICOPENGL=1 on Linux Blender will be statically linked
against GL libraries. NOTE: I used values that worked on my machine -
platform managers and people who have better knowledge about this, please
modify config/linux2-config.py accordingly.
always statically (you have to force it to build a dynamic library) the
resulting binary is redistributable.
The code is made ffmpeg-version independent using #ifdef's.
+ BF_BUILDINFO=1 (by default) for build info in splash
- remove redundant renderconverter include dir
* check for win32-vc instead of only win32, so MingW compile goes ok
* This commit is all of the rewrite work done on the SCons system. For
documentation see doc/blender-scons.txt and doc/blender-scons-dev.txt.
Also http://mediawiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/SconsRefactoring
contains valuable information, along with what still needs to be done.
- linux, os x and windows compile now.
- files are compiled to BF_INSTALLDIR (see config/(platform)-config.py)
- NOTE: Jean-Luc P will commit sometime during the weekend proper
appit() for OS X. For now, copy the resulting binary to an
existing .app bundle.
- features:
- cleaner structure for better maintenance
- cleaner output during compile
- better handling of build options
- general overall speed increase
- see the wiki for more info
Cygwin, FreeBSD and Solaris systems still need work. For these systems:
1) copy a config/(platform)-config.py to ie. config/cygwin-config.py
2) set the proper defaults for your platform
3) mail me at jesterking at letwory dot net with you configuration. if
you need any modifications to the system, do send a patch, too.
I'll be giving first-aid today and tomorrow, after that it'll be all
regular development work :)
