How to compile Tupi from source code (Windows 7 - 32 bit)

Warning: The official packages of Tupi for Windows are only available from our SourceForge repository. Avoid to download the Tupi installers from other Internet websites.

1. Download the dependencies required to compile Tupi

Qt 5.3
- http://download.qt-project.org/archive/qt/5.3/5.3.2/qt-opensource-windows-x86-mingw482_opengl-5.3.2.exe
Libav
- http://builds.libav.org/windows/release-gpl/libav-i686-w64-mingw32-11.1.7z
Git for Windows
- http://git-scm.com/download/win
Quazip source code
- http://sourceforge.net/projects/quazip/

2. Install the dependencies in the following paths:

Qt must be installed at C:\Qt-5.3.2
Libav must be installed at C:\libav
Git must be installed in the default path but ensuring its commands will be available from the Windows console
Quazip source code must be uncompressed at C:\tupi\sources\quazip-0.7

3. Ensure the following Qt paths are included in your system variable PATH:

C:\Qt-5.3.2\5.3\mingw482_32\bin
C:\Qt-5.3.2\Tools\mingw482_32\bin

This step is required to have access to the Qt commands from console. To verify this step, open a Windows console (the black one) and type:

qmake -version

You should get something like this:

C:\Users\me> qmake -version
QMake version 3.0
Using Qt version 5.3.2 in C:/Qt-5.3.2/5.3/mingw482_32/lib

4. Compile and install the Quazip library

From the Windows console run these commands:

cd C:\tupi\sources\quazip-0.7
qmake -config release “LIBS+=C:\libav\bin\zlib1.dll” “PREFIX=C:\Quazip”
make
make install

5. Download the Tupi source code

From the Windows console run these commands:

cd C:\tupi\sources
git clone https://github.com/xtingray/tupi.git -b devel

6. Compile the Tupi source code

From the Windows console run these commands:

cd C:\tupi\sources\tupi
qmake -config release
make

7. Prepare the libraries required by Tupi

Create the path C:\tupi\sources\qt5
Execute the script located at: C:\tupi\sources\tupi\tools\win32\qt5.bat
Create the path C:\tupi\sources\libav
Execute the script located at: C:\tupi\sources\tupi\tools\win32\libav.bat

8. Install the Tupi binaries in your system

Execute the script located at: C:\tupi\sources\tupi\tools\win32\copy.vbs
The Tupi's installation path will be: C:\maefloresta

9. Enjoy Tupi!

To run Tupi, execute the file: C:\maefloresta\bin\tupi.bat
