Nut upsdev - Mar 2016 - Windows port

Hi!

I would like to ask about current state of Windows port. Is it frozen? It will
be cool to know the plans :)

Where are a lot of Windows-branches at GitHub. What is the most actual one?

The Windows builder looks like turned off, am I right that it is not available
currently and where were no builds after version 2.6.5-6?

I couldn't find any info about proper environment to build Windows version.
Does anybody know what the version of MinGW has been installed on
eaton-win2003server-x86? And what versions of libraries such cppunit, libusb,
regex, snmp should be used?

Thanks,
Denis

[please use reply-all to include the list. thanks!]

github/Windows-v2.6.5-7 is the most recent active branch. The older windows_port
ones were developed in SVN, and the merge commits did not properly record which
changes from trunk/ were incorporated into the branch. Therefore, they could not
be merged back into trunk/master without potentially losing information. I kept
them after the reposurgeon SVN-to-Git conversion, but they are probably not
useful anymore.

If you mean the Windows builder in Buildbot, it never completely worked. I
believe that the Windows builds listed on the NUT homepage were all done on
another system.

Hopefully someone else can shed some light on that.

Hello!

A few weeks ago I have successfully built "Windows-v2.6.5-7" branch
under MinGW. So, I decided to write document described all important issues and
necessary steps. Here it is.

Notes:

1. I used Hyper-V virtual machine with Windows 2008R2 Standard Edition Server
Core with Service Pack 1 installed. There is no Microsoft Visual Studio nor
Platform SDK installation.

2. Some steps in this documents are related to Server Core only. Moreover,
different operations can be performed by different ways. And remember: it is
just draft document.

3. I do not know how original version of NUT for Windows has been built. It
seems that some steps were very custom. Moreover, some libraries in original
version are obsolete. I have tried to use the latest versions of software and
libraries when possible, but I think that there are no problems with the elder
ones.

4. I didn't test all compiled binaries and setup, just replaced some
executable files (nut.exe, upsmon.exe, upsd.exe) in original installation and
everything works fine.

5. I used some hard-coded file system paths in the document. If you will use
other ones, please keep in mind that you need to modify the commands and patches
which I have described.

Any feedback would be very nice! 

Thanks,
Denis


HOW TO BUILD NUT WINDOWS PORT
============================

1. MINGW INSTALLATION
---------------------

Download MinGW network setup.

URL:     https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw
File:    mingw-get-setup.exe
Version: 0.6.2-beta-20131004-1

Run the setup and install MinGW into "C:\MinGW" directory with
selected "Install
support for graphical user interface" option. After installation of core
files,
deploy additional packages via MinGW Installation Manager:

- mingw-developer-toolkit
- mingw32-base
- mingw32-gcc-g++
- mingw-base

NOTES

    You will need to execute different commands in Windows Command Prompt to
    build NUT. Windows Command Prompt "cmd.exe" must be started with
full
    administrator access token (Run as administrator).

    Hereinafter [cmd] marker means execution of one or more commands in
    Windows Command Prompt environment.

Normalize MinGW and SYS installations:

    [cmd]
    C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\postinstall\pi.bat

Accept all the questions and enter "C:/MinGW" value as MinGW
installation.
The normalization will create new mount point "/mingw" to
"C:/MinGW" directory
in "C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\etc\fstab" file. It is highly recommended to
check the
content of "fstab" file to be sure that everything has been done
properly.

Modify PATH-environment variable for MinGW binaries:

    [cmd]
    setx Path "%Path%;C:\MinGW\bin" /M

NOTES

    You have to start MinGW Shell with full administrator access token and only
    under MINGW32 environment. Being stared under MSYS environment, the
    different errors may occur during NUT building. To start MinGW Shell you
    should use "C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\msys.bat" batch file. Please, keep
in mind,
    that title of opened window must be "MINGW32:~", not
"MSYS:~".

    Hereinafter [shell] marker means execution of one or more commands in MinGW
    shell under MINGW32 environment. 


2. PYTHON INSTALLATION
----------------------

Download Python for Windows.

URL:     https://www.python.org/downloads
File:    python-2.7.11.msi
Version: 2.7.11

NOTES

    Do not try to build Python from official sources, they do not support MinGW.
    Moreover, do not install nonofficial Python packages for MinGW, because this
    manual takes into account the specific of Python for Windows.

Run the setup:

    [cmd]   
    msiexec.exe /i python-2.7.11.msi

Select "C:\Python26" as target directory and install all setup
features except
the following ones:

- pip
- Test suite

Modify PATH-environment variable for Python binaries:

    [cmd]
    setx Path "%Path%;C:\Python27" /M

Add mount point to Python installation:

    [shell]
    mount C:/Python27 /python


3. WIX INSTALLATION
--------------------

Download WIX binaries.

URL:     https://wix.codeplex.com/releases
File:    wix310-binaries.zip
Version: 3.10.2

NOTES

    Do not download WIX setup because it requires Microsoft Visual Studio.

Unpack the binaries into "C:\Wix" directory.

Install .NET Framework 2.0 (x64, x86):

    [cmd]
    dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx2-ServerCore
    dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx2-ServerCore-WOW64

Modify PATH-environment variable for WIX binaries:

    [cmd]
    setx Path "%Path%;C:\Wix" /M


4. DDK INSTALLATION
-------------------

Download Windows Driver Kit.

URL:     https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=11800
File:    GRMWDK_EN_7600_1.ISO
Version: 7.1.0

Install WDK into "C:\WinDDK" directory with the following selected
features:

- Build environment
- Tools


5. UNZIP INSTALLATION
---------------------

Install unzip package:

    [shell]
    mingw-get install msys-unzip


6. PKG-CONFIG INSTALLATION
--------------------------

Download pkg-config sources.

URL:     https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/pkg-config
File:    pkg-config-0.29.1.tar.gz
Version: 0.29.1

Unpack the sources into
"C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\home\Administrator\pkg-config-0.29.1"
directory and install pkg-config:

    [shell]
    cd /home/Administrator/pkg-config-0.29.1
    ./configure --prefix=/mingw --with-internal-glib
    make
    make install


7. CPPUNIT INSTALLATION
-----------------------

Download cppunit sources.

URL:     https://sourceforge.net/projects/cppunit
File:    cppunit-1.12.1.tar.gz
Version: 1.12.1

Unpack the sources into
"C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\home\Administrator\cppunit-1.12.1"
directory and install cppunit:

    [shell]
    cd /home/Administrator/cppunit-1.12.1
    ./configure --prefix=/mingw
    make
    make install


8. REGEX INSTALLATION
---------------------

Download regex sources.

URL:    
https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MSYS/Base/regex/regex-1.20090805-2

Download libxml sources.

URL:     http://www.xmlsoft.org/downloads.html
File:    libxml2-sources-2.9.3.tar.gz
Version: 2.9.3

NOTES

    Do not try to build libxml from different sources or to install precompiled
    binaries. Most of them are incompatible with MinGW: xmlcatalog and xmllint
    programs will not work properly and will be regularly crashed (even MinGW
    version
https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MSYS/Extension/libxml2).

Unpack the sources into
"C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\home\Administrator\libxml2-2.7.6-1"
directory.

Patch "configure" file:

10. LIBXSLT INSTALLATION
-----------------------

Download libxslt sources.

URL:     http://xmlsoft.org/libxslt/downloads.html
File:    libxslt-1.1.28.zip
Version: 1.1.28

NOTES

    You need to install libxslt by the same reasons as libxml: official MinGW
    version of xsltproc program works improperly.

Unpack the sources into
"C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\home\Administrator\libxslt-1.1.28"
directory and install libxslt:

    [shell]
    cd /home/Administrator/libxslt-1.1.28
    autogen.sh
    ./configure --prefix=/mingw --with-python=/python
    make
    make install


11. ZLIB INSTALLATION
--------------------

Download zlib sources.

URL:     https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MinGW/Extension/zlib
File:    zlib-1.2.7-1-mingw32-src.tar.lzma
Version: 1.2.7-1

NOTES

    Installation of zlib library is optinal. If this step is skipped, you 
    should not use "--with-zlib" switch during configure and have to
remove
    "libz-1.dll" file from WIX project "NUT-Installer.xml"
(described below).

Unpack the sources into
"C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\home\Administrator\zlib-1.2.8"

URL:     http://www.webdav.org/neon
File:    neon-0.30.1.tar.gz
Version: 0.30.1

Unpack the sources into
"C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\home\Administrator\neon-0.30.1"
directory and install neon:

    make
    make install


13. NET-SNMP INSTALLATION
-------------------------

Download net-snmp sources.

URL:     http://www.net-snmp.org/download.html
File:    net-snmp-5.7.3.zip
Version: 5.7.3

NOTES

    It is not possible to build shared version of net-snmp library by default.
    It seems that original setup of NUT for Windows 2.6.5-7 contains
    "libnetsnmp-30.dll" library what has been compiled manually. So,
we need
    the same trick.

Unpack the sources into
"C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\home\Administrator\net-snmp-5.7.3"
directory and install net-snmp:

    [shell]
	cd /home/Administrator/net-snmp-5.7.3
    ./configure --prefix=/mingw --with-zlib
--with-mibdirs=/mingw/share/snmp/mibs --with-mib-modules="agentx
disman/event-mib" --disable-embedded-perl --without-perl-modules
    make
    cd snmplib

18. NUT BUILD
-------------

Download NUT Windows Port sources.

URL:     https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/tree/Windows-v2.6.5-7
File:    nut-Windows-v2.6.5-7.zip
Version: 2.6.5-7

NOTES:

    It looks like the original binaries of NUT for Windows 2.6.5-7 were built
    using MinGW environment with Microsoft Platform SDK installed. The sources
    have included file "wspiapi.h" which is not presented in MinGW
installation
    but exists in Microsoft Platform SDK. This include is not required and
    must be removed.

Unpack the sources into
"C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\home\Administrator\nut-2.6.5-7"
directory.
