libs directory

• This directory for storing external libraries to build Tera Term.
• Source, library and executable file are stored for each compiler.
• Library is generated only once in advance.

Preparing

Visual Studio

• cmake
  • It is OK if PATH is passed.
  • Do not use Cygwin's cmake(Not supporting for Visual Studio).
  • Use cmake 3.11.4 when Visual Studio 2005 is used.
• perl
  • It is necessary for compiling OpenSSL, and converting character code of document and code of carriage return.
  • ActivePerl 5.8 or later, also cygwin perl.
  • It will be searched automatically if PATH is not passed.

MinGW common (experimental)

• Can be built with MinGW on Cygwin,MSYS2,linux(wsl).
• The cmake,make,(MinGW)gcc,(clang) and perl that work in each environment are required.

How to build

You need to use Internet service because some archives are automatically downloaded.

Case of Visual Studio

By using batch file

Execute buildall_cmake.bat, and select Visual Studio.

1. Visual Studio 16 2019
2. Visual Studio 15 2017
3. Visual Studio 14 2015
4. Visual Studio 12 2013
5. Visual Studio 11 2012
6. Visual Studio 10 2010
7. Visual Studio 9 2008
8. Visual Studio 8 2005
select no

When VS2005 is selected, you can download cmake 3.11.4 and install into libs\cmake-3.11.4-win32-x86.

By using cmake

Case of Visual Studio 2019 x86

cmake -DCMAKE_GENERATOR="Visual Studio 16 2019" -DARCHITECTURE=Win32 -P buildall.cmake

Case of Visual Studio 2017 x86

cmake -DCMAKE_GENERATOR="Visual Studio 15 2017" -P buildall.cmake

Case of Visual Studio 2017 x64

cmake -DCMAKE_GENERATOR="Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" -P buildall.cmake`

When Visual Studio 2005 is used, cmake 3.11.4 or earlier(if cmake is installed in libs\cmake-3.11.4-win32-x86).

libs\cmake-3.11.4-win32-x86\bin\cmake.exe" -DCMAKE_GENERATOR="Visual Studio 8 2005" -P buildall.cmake

MinGW common

Using cmake in each environment.

cmake -DCMAKE_GENERATOR="Unix Makefiles" -P buildall.cmake

Regarding each directory

Library directory generated

• Library *.h and *.lib are created in the following:
  • oniguruma_{compiler}
  • openssl_{compiler}
  • putty
  • SFMT_{compiler}
  • zlib_{compiler}

Downloaded archive directory

• Downloaded archives are stored.
• Downloading automatically.
• Re-use these archives downloaded already.
• Can be removed if these archives do not need after building.

Build directory

• Building under build/oniguruma/{compiler}/.
• Remove it in advance if rebuliding.
• Can be removed if this do not need after building.
