Easy-build bundle of 3rd-party packages used by the NCBI C++ Toolkit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
Some parts of the C++ Toolkit (notably the GUI ones) just cannot be built
|
|
without 3rd-party libraries (such as FLTK), and other parts of the
|
|
Toolkit will work more efficiently or provide more functionality if some
|
|
3rd-party packages (such as BerkeleyDB which is used for local data cache and
|
|
for local data storage) are available.
|
|
|
|
To facilitate the building of these 3rd-party libraries, there is an archive
|
|
that bundles together source code of the 3rd-party packages, plus a MSVC++.NET
|
|
"solution" to build all (or any combination) of them:
|
|
|
|
|
|
----------------------
|
|
HOWTO:
|
|
|
|
1. Download the bundle from:
|
|
<A HREF="ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/toolbox/ncbi_tools++/CURRENT/ThirdParty/ncbi_ThirdParty_win--Oct_02_2004.zip">ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/toolbox/ncbi_tools++/CURRENT/ThirdParty/ncbi_ThirdParty_win--Oct_02_2004.zip</A> (or *.exe)
|
|
|
|
2. Expand the archive (e.g. in "U:\").
|
|
|
|
3. Load this "solution" to MSVC++ .NET:
|
|
U:\ncbi_ThirdParty_win--Oct_02_2004\third_party_libs.sln
|
|
|
|
4. Set up the needed configuration(s) (e.g. ReleaseDLL) and build project
|
|
"-BUILD-ALL-" (or, you can build individual packages if you want to).
|
|
|
|
5. As a result, you will have the requested 3rd-party packages built and
|
|
installed "NCBI-wise", meaning that you should now be able to use them
|
|
to build the NCBI C++ Toolkit.
|
|
|
|
6. To "tune" the NCBI C++ Toolkit build framework to use the 3rd-party libs,
|
|
replace in your C++ Toolkit tree:
|
|
ncbi_cxx_win--Oct_02_2004\compilers\msvc710_prj\project_tree_builder.ini
|
|
by (it assumes 3r-party libs built on "U:\", fix it you built it elsewhere):
|
|
<A HREF="ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/toolbox/ncbi_tools++/CURRENT/ThirdParty/project_tree_builder.ini">ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/toolbox/ncbi_tools++/CURRENT/ThirdParty/project_tree_builder.ini</A>
|
|
and then "-CONFIGURE-" the C++ Toolkit's solution.
|
|
|
|
!) If you see a lot of fatal build errors in the 3rd-party dependent NCBI
|
|
projects, then make sure you really did built the 3rd-party libs for the
|
|
configuration(s) you are trying to build the Toolkit with!
|
|
|
|
|
|
----------------------
|
|
PROBLEMS:
|
|
Some 3rd-party dependent projects still won't build with this setup, may
|
|
require some tweaking. This is mostly because the 3rd-party snapshot was
|
|
done 2 months after the NCBI Oct-02 release, and there can be a couple
|
|
of version skews. This should be fixed in the next NCBI C++ Toolkit
|
|
release (planned for mid-end of November).
|
|
There are also 3rd-party libs which we just cannot distribute (such as
|
|
Sybase ones).
|
|

Just FYI, the full list of the packages with the original versions, patches
|
|
and download URLs:

|
|
|
|
We are also planning to compose a similar bundle of joy for UNIX.
