  10. The following instructions have been tested on both Windows 7 and Windows XP.
  11. Most of what is described below (copying files, downloading files, etc.) can be done
  12. directly in the MinGW MSYS shell; these instructions do not do so because package
  13. versions and links change over time. The best way is to use your browser, go to the
  14. links directly, and see for yourself which versions you want to install.
  15. Winrar was used to do the extracting of archive files in the making of this guide.
  16.  
  17. If you think that this documentation was helpful and you wish to donate, you can
  18. do so at the following address. 12KaKtrK52iQjPdtsJq7fJ7smC32tXWbWr

  21. * A tip that might help you along the way *
  22. **************************************************************************************
  23. Enable "QuickEdit Mode" in your Command Prompt Window or MinGW Command Prompt
  24. Window (No need to go into the context menu to choose edit-mark/copy/paste):
  25. Right-click on the title bar and click Properties. Under the Options tab, check
  26. the box for "QuickEdit Mode". Alternately, if you want this change to be
  27. permanent on all of your Command Prompt Windows; you can click Defaults instead
  28. of Properties as described above. Now you can drag and select text you want to
  29. copy, right-click to copy the text to the clipboard and right-click once again to
  30. paste it at the desired location. You could for example, copy some text from this
  31. document to the clipboard and right click in your Command Prompt Window to paste
  32. what you copied.
  33.

  41. be a different version later.)
  42. Make sure to check the option for "Download latest repository catalogs".
  43. I just selected all the check boxes (excluding "Fortran Compiler") so that everything
  44. was installed.
  45.  
  46. **************************************************************************************

  125. Ref. http://old.nabble.com/gcc-working-with-libcurl-td20506927.html
  126.  
  127. **************************************************************************************
  128. * Build cgminer.exe *
  129. **************************************************************************************
  130. Run the MinGW MSYS shell
  131. (Start Icon/keyboard key ==> All Programs ==> MinGW ==> MinGW Shell).
  132. Change the working directory to your CGMiner project folder.
  133. Example: cd cgminer-2.1.2 [Enter Key] if you are unsure then type "ls -la"
  134. Another way is to type "cd cg" and then press the tab key; It will auto fill.
  135. Type the lines below one at a time. Look for problems after each one before going on
  136. to the next.
  137.  
  138. adl.sh (optional - see below)
  139. autoreconf -fvi
  140. CFLAGS="-O2 -msse2" ./configure (additional config options, see below)
  141. make
  142. strip cgminer.exe <== only do this if you are not compiling for debugging
  143.  
  144. **************************************************************************************
  145. * Copy files to a build directory/folder *
  146. **************************************************************************************
  147. Make a directory and copy the following files into it. This will be your CGMiner
  148. Folder that you use for mining. Remember the .cl filenames could change on later
  149. releases. If you installed a different version of libcurl then some of those dll's
  150. may be different as well.
  151. cgminer.exe from \MinGW\msys\1.0\home\(username)\cgminer-x.x.x
  152. *.cl from \MinGW\msys\1.0\home\(username)\cgminer-x.x.x
  153. README from \MinGW\msys\1.0\home\(username)\cgminer-x.x.x
  154. libcurl.dll from \MinGW\bin
  155. libidn-11.dll from \MinGW\bin
  156. libeay32.dll from \MinGW\bin
  157. ssleay32.dll from \MinGW\bin
  158. libpdcurses.dll from \MinGW\bin
  159. pthreadGC2.dll from \MinGW\bin
  160.  
  161. **************************************************************************************
  162. * Optional - Install Git into MinGW/MSYS *
  163. **************************************************************************************
  164. Go to this url ==> http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/
  165. Click on the Downloads tab.
  166. Download the latest "Portable" git archive.
  167. Extract the git*.exe files from the bin folder and put them into \MinGW\bin.
  168. Extract the share\git-core folder and place it into \MinGW\share.
  169. After the previous step you should have a folder called \MinGW\share\git-core.
  170. To test if it is working, open a MinGW shell and type the following:
  171. git config -–global core.autocrlf false (note: one time run only)
  172. git clone git://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer.git
  173.  
  174. If you simply just want to update the source after you have already cloned, type:
  175. git pull
  176. "git pull" did not work for me. Try the following which does the same thing:
  177. git fetch && git merge FETCH_HEAD
  178.  
  179. Now you can get the latest source directly from github.
  180.  
  181. **************************************************************************************
  182. * Optional - Make a .sh file to automate copying over ADL files *
  183. **************************************************************************************
  184. Make a folder/directory in your home folder and name it ADL_SDK.
  185. (ref: \MinGW\msys\1.0\home\(folder with your user name)\ADL_SDK)
  186. Copy the ADL .h files into that folder/directory.
  187. Open your favorite text editor and type the following into it.
  188. cp -av ../ADL_SDK/*.h ADL_SDK
  189. Save the file as "adl.sh" and then place the file into "\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin".
  190. From now on when your current working directory is the cgminer source directory
  191. You can simply type "adl.sh" and it will place the ADL header files into place
  192. For you. Make sure you never remove the ADL_SDK folder from your home folder.
  193.  
  194. **************************************************************************************
  195. * Optional - Install libusb if you need auto USB device detection; required for Ztex *
  196. **************************************************************************************
  197. Go to this url ==> http://git.libusb.org/?p=libusb.git;a=snapshot;h=master;sf=zip
  198. save the file to your local storage. Open the file and copy the libusb* folder to
  199. \MinGW\msys\1.0\home\(your user directory/folder).
  200. Or if you do not want to download the file directly and would like to use git then
  201. Type the following from the MSYS shell in your home folder.
  202. git clone git://git.libusb.org/libusb.git
  203.  
  204. Run the MinGW MSYS shell
  205. (Start Icon/keyboard key ==> All Programs ==> MinGW ==> MinGW Shell).
  206. Change the working directory to your libusb project folder.
  207. Example: cd libusb-something [Enter Key] if you are unsure then type "ls -la"
  208. Another way is to type "cd libusb" and then press the tab key; It will auto fill.
  209. Type the lines below one at a time. Look for problems after each one before going on
  210. to the next.
  211.  
  212. ./autogen.sh --disable-debug-log --prefix=/MinGW
  213. make
  214. make install
  215.  
  216. You may now exit the MSYS shell.
  217. Ctrl-D or typing "logout" and pressing the enter key should get you out of the
  218. window.
  219.  
  220. You will have to copy "libusb-1.0.dll" to your working cgminer binary directory.
  221. You will find "libusb-1.0.dll" in the \MinGW\bin directory/folder.
  222.  
  223. Use this method if libusb does not work for you on Ztex. Once someone lets us know
  224. Libusb works instead of libusbx then we will remove the section below this line.
  225. Run the MSYS shell and change into the libusb folder as above.
  226. Type ==> make uninstall
  227. Go to this url ==> http://libusbx.org/
  228. Click on the "Downloads" tab.
  229. Click on "releases".
  230. Click on the latest version. I downloaded 1.0.14; yours may be newer.
  231. Do not download from the link that says "Looking for the latest version?".
  232. Click on "Windows"
  233. Click on the file and download it. I downloaded libusbx-1.0.12-win.7z.
  234. Extract the the following from the file and place in where directed.
  235. Copy libusb.h from include\libusbx-1.0 to \MinGW\include\libusb-1.0\libusb.h
  236. Copy contents of MinGW32\static \MinGW\lib
  237. Copy contents of MinGW32\dll to \MinGW\lib
  238. You will have to copy "libusb-1.0.dll" to your working cgminer binary directory.
  239.
