IMP Manual
for IMP version 2.14.0
|
We build and test IMP on Windows, built with the Microsoft Visual Studio compilers (we use Visual Studio Express 2010 SP1 for the 32-bit Windows .exe
installer, and VS Express 2012 for the 64-bit .exe
installer; for the Anaconda packages, both 32-bit and 64-bit, we use VS 2008 SP1 for Python 2.7 and VS 2015 for Python 3.5). One complication is that different packages are compiled with different versions of Visual Studio, and mixing the different runtimes (msvc*.dll
) can cause odd behavior; therefore, we recommend building most of the dependencies from source code using the same version of Visual Studio that you're going to use to build IMP.
We recommend building within the Anaconda environment, since many of the dependencies are already built, and the procedure is scripted so it is more easily reproducible:
conda install conda-build unxutils
foo
you can start a Visual Studio command prompt, cd
to the directory above the foo
directory containing the conda build recipe then build it with conda build --python=2.7 foo
meta.yaml
file that applies any needed patches to make things work on Windows, and a bld.bat
file that automates the build itself.If you want to build outside of the Anaconda environment, the basic procedure we employed is as follows:
C:\Program Files\GnuWin32
. The sources, however, must be installed in a path that doesn't contain spaces (otherwise the Boost build will fail). We chose C:\zlib
.C:\Program Files\boost_1_53_0
), thenset INCLUDE=C:\Program Files\GnuWin32\include
