-Quick Start
------ -----
-
-Unzip the MesaLib, MesaGLUT, and MesaDemos ZIP files into the same
-directory. The libs and demos build separately, so if you do not care
-about the demos or GLUT, you only need to unzip MesaLib. If you unzip
-more than one ZIP file, they all need to be unzipped into the same
-directory. Don't worry, you will not overwrite anything.
-
-The Windows build system uses Microsoft Visual Studio. Project files
-for a specific version of Visual Studio are in their own directory in
-the top-level "windows" directory. For example, Visual Studio 8 files
-are in windows/VC8.
-
-Support has been dropped for versions of Visual Studio prior to 8. The
-main reason is because Microsoft now provides a free compiler and
-developer environment. Visual Studio Express can be found at
-
-http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/default.aspx
-
-You'll also need the Platform SDK. Instructions for obtaining and
-using the SDK with Visual Studio Express can be found at
-
-http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/usingpsdk/
-
-If you are stuck using VC6 or VC7, you may start with these project
-files, but you may need to modify them to reflect changes in the
-Mesa source code tree. If you sucessfully update the project files,
-please submit them to the author of this document so that they may
-be included in the next distribution.
-
-The project files to build the core Mesa library, Windows Mesa
-drivers, OSMesa, and GLU are in the mesa directory. The project files
-to build GLUT and some demo programs are in the progs directory.
-
-Makefiles are no longer shipped or supported, but can be generated
-from the projects using Visual Studio.
-
-
-Windows Drivers
-------- -------
-
-At this time, only the GDI driver is known to work. Most of the demos
-in progs/demos should work with this driver.
-
-Source code also exists in the tree for other drivers in
-src/mesa/drivers/windows, but the status of this code is unknown.
-
-The GDI driver operates basically by writing pixel spans into a DIB
-section and then blitting the DIB to the window. The driver was
-recently cleaned up and rewitten and so may have bugs or may be
-missing some functionality. The older versions of the CVS source may
-be useful in figuring out any problems, or report them to me.
-
-To build Mesa with the GDI driver, build the mesa, gdi, and glu
-projects in the Visual Studio workspace found at
-
- windows/VC8/mesa/mesa.sln
-
-The osmesa DLL can also be built with the osmesa project.
-
-The build system creates a lib top-level directory and copies
-resulting LIB and DLL files to this lib directory. The files are:
-
- OPENGL32.LIB, GLU32.LIB, OSMESA32.LIB
- OPENGL32.DLL, GLU32.DLL, OSMESA32.DLL
-
-If the MesaDemos ZIP file was extracted, the DLL files are also copied
-to the demos directory. This facilitates running the demos as described
-below.
-
-
-GLUT and Demos
----- --- -----
-
-A Visual Studio workspace can be found at
-
- windows/VC8/progs/progs.sln
-
-It can be used to build GLUT and a few demos. The GLUT lib and DLL
-are copied to the top-level lib directory, along with the Mesa libs.
-
-The demo build system expects to find the LIB files in the top level
-lib directory, so you must build the Mesa libs first. The demo
-executables are placed in the demos directory, because some of them
-rely on data files found there. Also, the Mesa lib DLL's were copied
-there by the Mesa lib build process. Therefore, you should be able to
-simply run the demo executables from the demo directory.
-
-If you want to run the demos from the Visual Studio, you may have to
-change the startup directory and explicitly state where the executables are.
-
-You may also build all the demo programs by using a makefile. Go to
-the progs/demos directory and make sure you have executed VCVARS32.BAT
-or whatever setup script is appropriate for your compiler. Then,
-
- nmake -f Makefile.win
-
-should build all the demos.
-
-
-Build System Notes
------ ------ -----
-
-VC6 (not actively supported)
----
-
-Visual Studio 6 does not recognize files with the .cc extension as C++
-language files, without a lot of unnatural tweaking. So, the VC6
-build process uses custom build steps to compile these files in the
-GLU library.
-
-Two additional configurations are provided, Debug x86 and Release x86
-that activate the shader code compilation by defining SLANG_86. It is
-unknown if and how this works.
-
-VC7 (not actively supported)
----
-
-The above-mentioned .cc problem does not exist in this version.
-
-VC8
----
-
-No notes.
-
-
-General
--------
-
-After building, you can copy the above DLL files to a place in your
-PATH such as $SystemRoot/SYSTEM32. If you don't like putting things
-in a system directory, place them in the same directory as the
-executable(s). Be careful about accidentially overwriting files of
-the same name in the SYSTEM32 directory.
-
-The DLL files are built so that the external entry points use the
-stdcall calling convention.
-
-Static LIB files are not built. The LIB files that are built with are
-the linker import files associated with the DLL files.
-
-The si-glu sources are used to build the GLU libs. This was done
-mainly to get the better tessellator code.
-
-To build "mangled" Mesa, add the preprocessor define USE_MGL_NAMESPACE
-to the project settings. You will also need to edit src/mesa.def to
-change all the gl* symbols to mgl*. Because this is easy to do with a
-global replace operation in a text editor, no additional mangled
-version of mesa.def is maintained or shipped.
-
-If you have a Windows-related build problem or question, it is
-probably better to direct it to me (kschultz@users.sourceforge.net),
-rather than directly to the other Mesa developers. I will help you as
-much as I can. I also monitor the Mesa mailing lists and will answer
-questions in this area there as well.
