window compile bitcoin

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=149479.0

The following instructions are intended for use with version 0.9.4. See additional notes if compiling 0.10rc4 or an older 0.8.6 branch.

1. Prepare your build system.
I strongly suggest setting up a clean windows virtual machine via Virtualbox or similar.

1.1 Install msys shell:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Installer/mingw-get-setup.exe/download
From MinGW installation manager -> All packages -> MSYS
mark the following for installation:

msys-base-bin
msys-autoconf-bin
msys-automake-bin
msys-libtool-bin

then click on Installation -> Apply changes

Make sure no mingw packages are checked for installation or present from a previous install. Only the above msys packages should be installed. Also make sure that msys-gcc and msys-w32api packages are not installed.

1.2 Install MinGW-builds project toolchain:
Download http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win32/Personal%20Builds/mingw-builds/4.9.2/threads-posix/dwarf/i686-4.9.2-release-posix-dwarf-rt_v3-rev1.7z/download
and unpack it to C:\

1.3. Ensure that mingw-builds bin folder is set in your PATH environment variable. On Windows 7 your path should look something like:

Code:

C:\mingw32\bin;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\

1.4 Additional checks:
C:\MinGW\bin should contain nothing but mingw-get.exe.
Your gcc -v output should be:

Code:

$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
COLLECT_GCC=c:\mingw32\bin\gcc.exe
COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=c:/mingw32/bin/../libexec/gcc/i686-w64-mingw32/4.9.2/lto-wrapper.exe

Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.9.2 (i686-posix-dwarf-rev1, Built by MinGW-W64 project)

2. Download, unpack and build required dependencies.
I'll save them in c:\deps folder.

2.1 OpenSSL: http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.1l.tar.gz
From a MinGw shell (C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\msys.bat), unpack the source archive with tar (this will avoid symlink issues) then configure and make:

Code:

cd /c/deps/
tar xvfz openssl-1.0.1l.tar.gz
cd openssl-1.0.1l
./Configure no-zlib no-shared no-dso no-krb5 no-camellia no-capieng no-cast no-cms no-dtls1 no-gost no-gmp no-heartbeats no-idea no-jpake no-md2 no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-rdrand no-rfc3779 no-rsax no-sctp no-seed no-sha0 no-static_engine no-whirlpool no-rc2 no-rc4 no-ssl2 no-ssl3 mingw
make

2.2 Berkeley DB: http://download.oracle.com/berkeley-db/db-4.8.30.NC.tar.gz
We'll use version 4.8 to preserve binary wallet compatibility.
From a MinGW shell unpack the source archive, configure and make:

Code:

cd /c/deps/
tar xvfz db-4.8.30.NC.tar.gz
cd db-4.8.30.NC/build_unix
../dist/configure --enable-mingw --enable-cxx --disable-shared --disable-replication
make

2.3 Boost: http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.57.0/
Download either the zip or the 7z archive, unpack boost inside your C:\deps folder, then bootstrap and compile from a Windows command prompt:

Code:

cd C:\deps\boost_1_57_0\
bootstrap.bat mingw
b2 --build-type=complete --with-chrono --with-filesystem --with-program_options --with-system --with-thread toolset=gcc variant=release link=static threading=multi runtime-link=static stage

This will compile the required boost libraries and put them into the stage folder (C:\deps\boost_1_57_0\stage).
Note: make sure you don't use tarballs, as unix EOL markers can break batch files.

2.4 Miniupnpc: http://miniupnp.free.fr/files/download.php?file=miniupnpc-1.9.20150206.tar.gz
Unpack Miniupnpc to C:\deps, rename containing folder from "miniupnpc-1.9.20150206" to "miniupnpc" then from a Windows command prompt:

Code:

cd C:\deps\miniupnpc
mingw32-make -f Makefile.mingw init upnpc-static

2.5 protoc and libprotobuf:
Download https://github.com/google/protobuf/releases/download/v2.6.1/protobuf-2.6.1.tar.gz
Then from msys shell

Code:

tar xvfz protobuf-2.6.1.tar.gz
cd /c/deps/protobuf-2.6.1
configure --disable-shared
make

2.6 qrencode:
Download and unpack http://download.sourceforge.net/libpng/libpng-1.6.16.tar.gz inside your deps folder then configure and make:

Code:

cd /c/deps/libpng-1.6.16
configure --disable-shared
make
cp .libs/libpng16.a .libs/libpng.a

Download and unpack http://fukuchi.org/works/qrencode/qrencode-3.4.4.tar.gz inside your deps folder then configure and make:

Code:

cd /c/deps/qrencode-3.4.4

LIBS="../libpng-1.6.16/.libs/libpng.a ../../mingw32/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libz.a" \
png_CFLAGS="-I../libpng-1.6.16" \
png_LIBS="-L../libpng-1.6.16/.libs" \
configure --enable-static --disable-shared --without-tools

make

2.7 Qt 5 libraries:
Qt must be configured with ssl and zlib support.
Download and unpack Qt base and tools sources:
http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/5.3/5.3.2/submodules/qtbase-opensource-src-5.3.2.7z
http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/5.3/5.3.2/submodules/qttools-opensource-src-5.3.2.7z
Then from a windows command prompt (note that the following assumes qtbase has been unpacked to C:\Qt\5.3.2 and qttools have been unpacked to C:\Qt\qttools-opensource-src-5.3.2):

Code:

set INCLUDE=C:\deps\libpng-1.6.16;C:\deps\openssl-1.0.1l\include
set LIB=C:\deps\libpng-1.6.16\.libs;C:\deps\openssl-1.0.1l

cd C:\Qt\5.3.2
configure.bat -release -opensource -confirm-license -static -make libs -no-sql-sqlite -no-opengl -system-zlib -qt-pcre -no-icu -no-gif -system-libpng -no-libjpeg -no-freetype -no-angle -no-vcproj -openssl -no-dbus -no-audio-backend -no-wmf-backend -no-qml-debug

mingw32-make

set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Qt\5.3.2\bin

cd C:\Qt\qttools-opensource-src-5.3.2
qmake qttools.pro
mingw32-make

Note: consider using -j switch with mingw32-make to speed up compilation process. On a quad core -j4 or -j5 should give the best results.


3. Download and unpack Bitcoin 0.9.4 from git https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/archive/v0.9.4.zip

From msys shell configure and make bitcoin:

Code:

cd /c/bitcoin-0.9.4

./autogen.sh

CPPFLAGS="-I/c/deps/db-4.8.30.NC/build_unix \
-I/c/deps/openssl-1.0.1l/include \
-I/c/deps \
-I/c/deps/protobuf-2.6.1/src \
-I/c/deps/libpng-1.6.16 \
-I/c/deps/qrencode-3.4.4" \
LDFLAGS="-L/c/deps/db-4.8.30.NC/build_unix \

-L/c/deps/miniupnpc \
-L/c/deps/protobuf-2.6.1/src/.libs \
-L/c/deps/libpng-1.6.16/.libs \
-L/c/deps/qrencode-3.4.4/.libs" \
BOOST_ROOT=/c/deps/boost_1_57_0 \
./configure \
--disable-upnp-default \
--disable-tests \
--with-qt-incdir=/c/Qt/5.3.2/include \
--with-qt-libdir=/c/Qt/5.3.2/lib \
--with-qt-plugindir=/c/Qt/5.3.2/plugins \
--with-qt-bindir=/c/Qt/5.3.2/bin \
--with-protoc-bindir=/c/deps/protobuf-2.6.1/src

make

strip src/bitcoin-cli.exe
strip src/bitcoind.exe
strip src/qt/bitcoin-qt.exe

Additional notes:
64 bit binaries
64 bit binaries can be compiled by using the following toolchain:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win64/Personal%20Builds/mingw-builds/4.9.2/threads-posix/seh/x86_64-4.9.2-release-posix-seh-rt_v3-rev1.7z/download

All dependencies must be rebuilt with the above toolchain.
Openssl should be configured for:

Code:

mingw64

instead of:

Code:

mingw

Bitcoin v0.10rc4
Since v0.10 Bitcoin depends on gmp: https://gmplib.org/download/gmp/gmp-6.0.0a.tar.xz
Compile it in a msys shell

Code:

tar xvf gmp-6.0.0a.tar.xz
cd /c/deps/gmp-6.0.0
./configure --disable-shared
make

Then add relevant CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS when configuring Bitcoin:

Code:

CPPFLAGS="-I/c/deps/db-4.8.30.NC/build_unix \
-I/c/deps/openssl-1.0.1l/include \
-I/c/deps \
-I/c/deps/protobuf-2.6.1/src \
-I/c/deps/libpng-1.6.16 \
-I/c/deps/qrencode-3.4.4 \
-I/c/deps/gmp-6.0.0" \
LDFLAGS="-L/c/deps/db-4.8.30.NC/build_unix \
-L/c/deps/openssl-1.0.1l \
-L/c/deps/miniupnpc \
-L/c/deps/protobuf-2.6.1/src/.libs \
-L/c/deps/libpng-1.6.16/.libs \
-L/c/deps/qrencode-3.4.4/.libs \
-L/c/deps/gmp-6.0.0/.libs" \
BOOST_ROOT=/c/deps/boost_1_57_0 \
./configure \
--disable-upnp-default \
--disable-tests \
--with-qt-incdir=/c/Qt/5.3.2/include \
--with-qt-libdir=/c/Qt/5.3.2/lib \
--with-qt-plugindir=/c/Qt/5.3.2/plugins \
--with-qt-bindir=/c/Qt/5.3.2/bin \
--with-protoc-bindir=/c/deps/protobuf-2.6.1/src

Compiling with unit tests
In order to build unit tests you will need the following:
-boost
Boost must be configured with --with-test option also.

-hexdump
To generate test data an hexdump like program is needed.
Download and unpack https://github.com/wahern/hexdump then compile hexdump.exe by running:

Code:

gcc -std=gnu99 -g -O2 -Wall -Wextra -Werror -Wno-unused-variable -Wno-unused-parameter hexdump.c -DHEXDUMP_MAIN -o hexdump.exe

Do not forget to add hexdump folder to your PATH environment variable.

-bitcoin
In order to work with the previously compiled hexdump version Makefile must be patched (src/Makefile.test.include if v0.10, src/Makefile.include if v0.9):

Code:

--- src/Makefile.test.include Tue Dec 23 20:14:37 2014

bitcoin must be configured without --disable-tests option.






Additional notes for older Bitcoin 0.8.6 (may be useful for Bitcoin based altcoins)
msys-autoconf, msys-automake and msys-libtool at step 1.1 are not needed. You can skip steps 2.5 and 2.7.
Note that openssl v1.0.1k and later may lead to consesus forks:
http://sourceforge.net/p/bitcoin/mailman/message/33221963/

Compile bitcoind 0.8.6: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/archive/v0.8.6.zip

With a texteditor edit BOOST_SUFFIX, INCLUDEPATHS and LIBPATHS in your C:\bitcoin-0.8.6\src\makefile.mingw according to your dependencies location:

Code:

BOOST_SUFFIX?=-mgw49-mt-s-1_57

INCLUDEPATHS= \
 -I"$(CURDIR)" \
 -I"/c/deps/boost_1_57_0" \

 -L"/c/deps/db-4.8.30.NC/build_unix" \
 -L"/c/deps/openssl-1.0.1j"

and add -static option to LDFLAGS in makefile.mingw to compile a statically linked executable.

Code:

LDFLAGS=-Wl,--dynamicbase -Wl,--nxcompat -Wl,--large-address-aware -static

makefile.mingw patch:
