Feedback welcome.  Please send to the ossim mailing list at "ossim-developer AT lists.sourceforge.net" and reference this page.

Note: Windows command shell commands start with ":\>", unix commands start with $, anything else will be notes, comments. If you see a $ <some_command> // The part after slash slash is a comment.

'''Environment variables'''[[BR]]
I put my build environment in a separate file that I source.  I do this because I have more than one workspace, i.e. osgeo, geoeye, geoeye-dev.  Usually I'll put this in D:\dev directory.  Contents of ossim-vs10.bat file:[[BR]]
{{{
:: File: ossim-vs10.bat

:: Forward slashes for use with cmake and nmake.
set OSSIM_DEV_HOME_FS=D:/dev/vs10_x86

:: Backward Slash windows things.  We'll use MS for MicroSoft.
set OSSIM_DEV_HOME=D:\dev\vs10_x86

set OSSIM_DEPENDENCIES=%OSSIM_DEV_HOME%\local
set OSSIM_HOME=%OSSIM_DEV_HOME%\ossim
set OSSIM_PREFS_FILE=%OSSIM_DEV_HOME%\ossim-prefs
set QTDIR=D:\Qt\4.8.4
set PATH=D:\cmake\cmake-2.8.10.2-win32-x86\bin;%OSSIM_DEV_HOME%\build\bin;%OSSIM_DEV_HOME%\local\bin;C:\Program Files (x86)\XEmacs\XEmacs-21.4.22\i586-pc-win32;%QTDIR%\bin;%PATH%
}}}


'''Make a workspace:'''[[BR]]

// Top level, this is OSSIM_DEV_HOME:[[BR]]
D:\> mkdir dev\vs10_x64

[[BR]]
// ossim build dir:[[BR]]
D:\> cd dev\vs10_x64[[BR]]
D:\dev\vs10_x64> mkdir build

// Sandbox for 3rd party dependencies:[[BR]]
D:\dev\vs10_x64> mkdir deps[[BR]]


'''Building'''[[BR]]

// Source the bat file for environment variables.[[BR]]
D:\> D:\dev\ossim-vs10.bat

First time through check out code.  Note I don't like to check out the whole trunk so I do pieces.

I always build geos, libtiff, geotiff, gdal from the latest.  You don't have to, it's up to you.  Most of these you can get from yum but I find the code is usually way behind.

NOTE: Things I build with cmake I use an "out of source" build so I put in a sub directory of the package.

'''geos:'''[[BR]]
// Needed by ossim.[[BR]]
D:\> mkdir %OSSIM_DEV_HOME%\geos[[BR]]
D:\> cd %OSSIM_DEV_HOME%\geos[[BR]]
// Get code from svn or optionally download a release.[[BR]]
D:\dev\vs10_x64\geos> svn co http://svn.osgeo.org/geos/trunk geos-svn[[BR]]

// Make a cmake config script[[BR]]
D:\dev\vs10_x64\geos> xemacs geos-cmake-config.bat // Use whatever editor you want, notepad, whatever...[[BR]]
// Contents of script:[[BR]]

{{{
::---
:: File: geos-cmake-config.bat
::---

:: Development root dir:
set dev=%OSSIM_DEV_HOME_FS%

cmake -G "NMake Makefiles" ^
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ^
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=%dev%/deps ^
../geos-svn
}}}

D:\dev\vs10_x64\geos> mkdir build // "out of source" build dir[[BR]]
D:\dev\vs10_x64\geos> cd build[[BR]]

// Run the cmake command to set up the build system:[[BR]]
D:\dev\vs10_x64\geos\build> ..\geos-cmake-config.sh

// Make:[[BR]]
D:\dev\vs10_x64\geos\build> nmake

// Install to sandbox:[[BR]]
D:\dev\vs10_x64\geos\build> nmake install

// End of GEOS
