C. Building under Unix in Different Directories
--------------------------------------------
It is possible to configure and build Subversion on Unix in a
directory other than the working copy. For example
$ svn co http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk svn
$ cd svn
$ # get neon/apr as required
$ chmod +x autogen.sh
$ ./autogen.sh
$ mkdir ../obj
$ cd ../obj
$ ../svn/configure [...with options as appropriate...]
$ make
puts the Subversion working copy in the directory svn and builds
it in a separate, parallel directory obj.
Why would you want to do this? Well there are a number of
reasons...
* You may prefer to avoid "polluting" the working copy with
files generated during the build.
* You may want to put the build directory and the working
copy on different physical disks to improve performance.
* You may want to separate source and object code and only
backup the source.
* You may want to remote mount the working copy on multiple
machines, and build for different machines from the same
working copy.
* You may want to build multiple configurations from the
same working copy.
The last reason above is possibly the most useful. For instance
you can have separate debug and optimized builds each using the
same working copy. Or you may want a client-only build and a
client-server build. Using multiple build directories you can
rebuild any or all configurations after an edit without the need
to either clean and reconfigure, or identify and copy changes
into another working copy.
D. Installing from a Zip or Installer File under Windows
--------------------------------------------------------
Of all the ways of getting a Subversion client, this is the
easiest. Download a Zip (*.zip) or self-extracting installer
(*-setup.exe) file from:
http://subversion.tigris.org/ser ... entList?folderID=91
For a Zip file, run your unzipping utility (WinZIP, ZipGenius,
UltimateZIP, FreeZIP, whatever) and extract the DLLs and EXEs to
a directory of your choice. Included in the download is the SVN
client, the SVNADMIN administration tool, and the SVNLOOK
reporting tool.
Note that if you need support for non-English locales you'll have
to set the APR_ICONV_PATH environment variable to the path of the
iconv directory in the folder that contains the Subversion install.
You may also want to add the bin directory in the Subversion folder
to your PATH environment variable so as to not have to use the full
path when running Subversion commands.
To test the installation, open a DOS box (run either "cmd" or
"command" from the Start menu's "Run..." menu option), change to
the directory you installed the executables into, and run:
C:\test>svn co http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk svn
This will get the latest Subversion sources and put them into the
"svn" subdirectory.
If using a self-extracting .exe file, just run it instead of
unzipping it, to install Subversion.
E. Building the Latest Source under Windows
----------------------------------------
E.1 Prerequisites
* Visual Studio 6 and service pack. It can be built with later versions
of Visual Studio (Visual Studio.NET 2002, 2003, 2005 and Visual C++
Express 2005) but these instructions assume VS6.
* A recent Windows SDK if you are using Visual Studio 6.
You can get it from MSDN if you have it or from
http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/ if you
don't.
* Python 2.2 or higher, downloaded from http://www.python.org/ which is
used to generate the project files.
* Perl 5.8 or higher from http://www.activestate.com/
* Awk (from http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/bwk/awk95.exe) is
needed to compile Apache or APR. Note that this is the actual awk
program, not an installer - just rename it to awk.exe and it is
ready to use.
* Neon 0.26.1 or higher, downloaded from
http://www.webdav.org/neon/neon-0.26.1.tar.gz which is required
for building the client components. Neon is included in the zip file
distribution. (0.25.0+ compiles, but does not properly support all
HTTP auth types.)
* Apache apr, apr-util, and apr-iconv libraries, version 0.9.12.
Included in both the Subversion dependencies ZIP file and the
Apache 2.058 source zip. If you are building from a Subversion
checkout and have not downloaded Apache 2, then get these 3
libraries from http://www.apache.org/dist/apr/. Note that
the 1.x APR releases are not yet functional with Subversion --
see the note on '[Optional] Apache 2 source' below.
* ZLib 1.2 or higher is required and is included in the Subversion
dependencies zip file or can be obtained from http://www.zlib.org
* Either a Subversion client binary from http://subversion.tigris.org/ to
do the initial checkout of the Subversion source or the zip file
source distribution. See the section "Bootstrapping from a Zip or
Installer File under Windows" above for more.
* A means of unpacking the files, e.g., WinZIP or similar.
Additional Options
* [Optional] Apache 2 source, downloaded from
http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi, these instructions assume
version 2.0.58. Only needed for building the server dso modules.
Note that although Subversion will compile against Apache 2.2.2
and APR 1.2.7, there is a bug that causes runtime failures with
Subversion on Windows. It will hopefully be fixed in the
Apache 2.2.3 and APR 1.2.8 release. The patch is available at:
http://www.mail-archive.com/dev@apr.apache.org/msg15242.html if
you want to patch and build APR yourself.
* [Optional] Apache 2 msi install file, also from
http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi (required for running the
tests). Only needed for testing the server dso modules and if
you are using Visual Studio 6.
Note that if you are not using Visual Studio 6 (and you want to
run and test the server modules) then you must rebuild Apache
from source -- do not use the stock MSI since mixing C runtime
libraries is not supported.
* [Optional] Berkeley DB for backend support of the server
components -- versions 4.3.27 and 4.4.20 are available from
http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList as
db-4.3.27-win32.zip and db-4.4.20-win32.zip.
For more information see Section I.5.
* [Optional] Openssl 0.9.7f or higher can be obtained from
http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-0.9.7f.tar.gz
* [Optional] A modified version of GNU libintl, called
svn-win32-libintl.zip, can be used for displaying localized
messages. Available at:
http://subversion.tigris.org/ser ... tList?folderID=2627
* [Optional] GNU gettext for generating message catalog (.mo)
files from message translations. You can get the latest
binaries from http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/. You'll need the
binaries (gettext-0.14.1-bin.zip) and dependencies
(gettext-0.14.1-dep.zip).
* [Optional] An assembler, e.g., MASM32 from http://www.mas32.com/
or nasm which is available from
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/devel/nasm/binaries/win32/ |
