CCP4 Molecular Graphics Documentation
	Build Instructions for CCP4MG on Windows

Compile CCP4 libs with gcc/g++

• Install MinGW
• Install MSYS
• Download ccp4 source, build on Vista, using 'generic' as OS.

Install Python2.6

• Install Python binary distribution (2.6.1)

Compile Qt 4.5

The Qt 4.5 binary downloads are now compiled with MSVC, which makes redistributing them harder.

So I compile Qt from source.

• Download and extract the following (or later version) qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.6.2.tar.bz2
• In an msys shell:

  export QTDIR=/c/msys/1.0/home/Stuart/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.6.2/
  export PATH=/c/msys/1.0/home/Stuart/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.6.2/bin:$PATH
  export QMAKESPEC=$QTDIR/mkspecs/win32-g++
  
  ./configure.exe (Note the .exe is important)
  mingw32-make
  

Install some auxiliary stuff

• Install complete package, except source GnuWin32 versions of coreutils, bison, zlib, libungif, libtiff, libjpeg, libpng, bzip2 into C:/GnuWin32 (Replace C with whatever your system drive is.
• Install pexports (copy binary to /c/mingw/bin). This step may no longer be necessary as Python comes with libraries against which gcc can link.

Install PyQt

Following http://diotavelli.net/PyQtWiki/BuildPyQt4Windows

• Download latest versions of sip and PyQt.
• Open a command prompt.

    set PATH=C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\msys\1.0\home\Stuart\qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.6.2\bin;C:\MinGW\bin;C:\GnuWin32\bin
  
    cd sip-4.10.2
    c:\python26\python configure.py -p win32-g++
    mingw32-make YACC="bison -y"
    mingw32-make install
  
    cd PyQt-win-gpl-4.7.3
    c:\python26\python configure.py -w
    mingw32-make
    mingw32-make install
  

Compile MG

• Developers with cvs access to ccp4 should do:

  mkdir ccp4mg_dir
  cd ccp4mg_dir
  CVS_RSH=ssh CVSROOT=mgdev@cvs.ccp4.ac.uk:/public/ccp4mg/MG_CVS cvs -z9 co -r Rel_2_B .
  cp -a ccp4_build clipper
  PATH=/c/Python26/:$QTDIR/bin:$PATH ./configure --extra-inc=/c/GnuWin32/include --extra-lib=/c/GnuWin32/lib
  make
  

• Others should download the source tar ball.

  tar zxvf ccp4mg-1.110.1-src.tar.gz
  cd ccp4mg-1.110.1
  cp -a ccp4_build clipper
  PATH=/c/Python26/:$QTDIR/bin:$PATH ./configure --extra-inc=/c/GnuWin32/include --extra-lib=/c/GnuWin32/lib
  make
  

Make python have no MSVC lib dependency

OK, Python26 is not really redistributable unless target machine has (from some source) the VC++ redistributable dlls.

• Install Visual Studio Express.
• Download Python source, open the solution in in PCBuild in VC++ 2008 Express. Change all project code generation options to /MT, change Generate Manifest to No in Manifest file and add NODEFAULTLIB:MSVCRT to linker command line. Copy the created python.exe, pythonw.exe to ccp4mg_dir/pythondist/bin and *.pyd to ccp4mg_dir/pythondist/DLLs

Compile Pixie

• Download Pixie
• Compile Pixie from source, with VC++ 2008 Express (ensure that no dependency on non-standard MSVC libs, see fixing Python above). This takes a long time, especially at "Code generation" step for ri.exp. Run makeinst.bat.
• Install Pixie binary, copy zlib1.dll from that into the compiled Pixie's bin. (!!!!)
• cp Pixie to ccp4mg_dir/pixie.

Compile PISA

PISA will have been built when CCP4 was built (it is part of it), unless you did make onlylib.

But we are still having to make some patches which we hope to agree with the PISA author Eugene Krissinel.

Download the patch: ccp4mg-2.5.1-pisa-patch.tar.gz

cd ccp4_dir/src/pisa/pisa
tar zxvf path to/ccp4mg-2.5.1-pisa-patch.tar.gz
rm -f pisa_interface.o pisa_view.o
make
cp pisa ccp4mg_dirccp4_suite/bin
cp -a sbase ccp4mg_dirccp4_suite/share

Do not do this if you plan to use this copy of PISA in any other way from with CCP4MG. Make a separate copy in that instance.

Install monomer library

cp -a ccp4_dir/lib/data/monomers/ ccp4mg_dir/data/monomer_library

Run the program

Build release

cp /c/msys/1.0/home/Stuart/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.6.2/bin/*.dll ccp4mg_dir/lib
cp -a /c/msys/1.0/home/Stuart/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.6.2/plugins ccp4mg_dir/QtPlugins
cp /c/GnuWin32/bin/*.dll ccp4mg_dir/lib
cp ccp4mg_dir/pixie/bin/zlib1.dll ccp4mg_dir/lib
make distrib
