How to build TorWall in Windows? #20

Hi,

I followed build instruction in README, when I run build.sh, the zip files got extract, but that's it, nothing else happens.

Would you explain more about build TorWall on Windows?

basil00 commented 5 years ago

Only Linux cross compilation is "officially" supported. It might be possible to build on Windows using MSYS but I've never tried.

@basil00 would you turn on some lights about doing that?

BTW, this tool belong to Windows, I think you should support Windows officially, Linux users don't need TorWall ;)

Basically, you'll need to install MSYS, open a console, extract and goto the source directory, extract the necessary dependencies (WinDivert, Tor), then run make (& fix any make errors). Building the install exe requires nsis which may or may not be supported (I can't remember).

From experience, maintaining multiple build envs is a pain and I prefer Linux so that's what is "officially" supported. This doesn't affect most users who are happy to just d/l the pre-built exe.

Please rebuild and update version 1.2
