Build Notes #35

Closed pwarren closed 9 years ago

pwarren commented 9 years ago

Not sure how/where you would want to stick this, but I created some build notes fro Debian8:

sudo apt-get install git build-essential librtlsdr-dev automake
libfftw3-dev cmake libgl1-mesa-dev libwxgtk3.0-dev libpulse-dev

git clone https://github.com/jgaeddert/liquid-dsp

cd liquid-dsp
./bootsrap.sh
./configure
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig
cd ..

git clone https://github.com/cjcliffe/CubicSDR.git
cd CubicSDR
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../
make
./CubicSDR

Excellent thanks -- I'll be putting instructions in the Wiki but will leave this issue up as the go-to for now; I'm deploying a fresh Windows 8.1 VM at the moment so that I can prepare the build instructions, which will be a bit trickier..

yoesak commented 9 years ago

@cjcliffe I still struggling with the errors on ThreadQueue.. could you point me a clue how to compile and build on Windows 8.1 ? I use VS2012 (Native Compiler / 2012 CTP) on Windows 8,1

cjcliffe commented 9 years ago

@yoesak I wasn't able to make a windows build using Visual Studio and am as of yet unsure how to make it work (and it sounds std::thread related in your case); that said I didn't put in much effort to get it going as TDM64-GCC just worked for the most part. I will provide instructions on how to use TDM64-GCC from a fresh 8.1 install and am working out the 32-bit instructions as well (it was originally working on 32bit, but an old version of MinGW32).

yoesak commented 9 years ago

@cjcliffe thanks for pointing me a clue not to use MSVC :), I will wait for instruction then...

Mac Build Instructions (using MacPorts):

ccliffe$ sudo port install rtl-sdr fftw-3-single liquid-dsp wxWidgets-3.0-libcxx
.. installing ..
ccliffe$ git clone https://github.com/cjcliffe/CubicSDR.git
.. cloning ..
ccliffe$ cd CubicSDR/cmake_build
ccliffe$ cmake ../ -DwxWidgets_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE=/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/wxWidgets.framework/Versions/wxWidgets/3.0-libcxx/bin/wx-config
... generating ...
-- Build files have been written to: .../CubicSDR/cmake_build
ccliffe$ make
.. compiling ..
ccliffe$ ./CubicSDR

If for some reason your wx-config is elsewhere (built manually or otherwise) you can find it via:

ccliffe$ locate wx-config
/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/wxWidgets.framework/Versions/wxWidgets/3.0-libcxx/bin/wx-config

I have a partially working BundleUtilities that produces an .app and .dmg package but haven't finished the resource location support and metadata yet. I'll update once it's available.

cjcliffe commented 9 years ago

@yoesak If you're eager and have 64-bit windows there is a test build up at: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bx8hq1ez_vazNEpabl9ucU0zMGs/view that was used for verifying the OpenGL update fixes yesterday.

yoesak commented 9 years ago

@cjcliffe Thanks, I've just tried the app and it works with my NESDR-E4000, but I still wonder how to compile and build on Windows 8.1, hope you will post the instruction

cjcliffe commented 9 years ago

"Truth" has seemingly had success with Bananna Pi via rtl-sdr.com and reports to do the following to get Liquid-DSP to compile:

$ vi makefile 
(ESC key)
:%s/mfloat-abi=soft/mfloat-abi=hard/g
:wq
$

Which basically means "edit makefile and replace all mfloat-abi=soft with mfloat-abi=hard" for the non-vi users.

bodrick commented 9 years ago

So to chime in I was able to build on Windows 8.1 using mingw-w64 which is available at http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/. I then had to build wxWidgets, when building wxWidgets, make sure to use -std=gnu++11 otherwise it won't compile. Then once you've ran cmake and set up the proper libraries etc, you should be able to build. I can try and create some proper steps when I get home later on today.

bodrick commented 9 years ago

So I've also tried to compile using Visual Studio 2013, and after some tinkering got to the following issue and wonder if anyone can shed some light : This line https://github.com/cjcliffe/CubicSDR/blob/master/src/sdr/SDRThread.cpp#L265 causes me issues, Visual C++ will complain that there is an ambiguous conversion.

I'm not a C++ programmer so I'm not sure where to start, I am familiar and I program in other languages, namely C#, and VB.Net and frontend web stuff so I'm a little lost on how I would fix this.

cjcliffe commented 9 years ago

I have visual studio ready to go on my main desktop, if you have any build steps up to that point I'll add them to the Windows build instructions I'm working on now and try them myself.

For a quick fix you may try "if (iqDataOutQueue.load() != NULL)" as I think it's just complaining about comparing NULL with std::atomic and doesn't know if it should compare the container or it's pointer contents.

bodrick commented 9 years ago

So good news, I managed to compile using Visual C++ 12. I did have to make a couple of changes to the source to resolve some of the compile errors, and the suggestion about using .load worked great. I had to generate lib files for the liquid-dsp, fftw and I compiled rtl-sdr, although I would imagine you can generate the lib file without having to recompile. You need to run the VS2013 x64 Native Tools Command prompt, then find the def file for the dll you wish to generate the lib for then run : lib /def:libfftw3f-3.def, this will generate the lib file which you can then link against in VS. I will try and do a better step by step hopefully tomorrow, and also set up a pull request with my changes.

yoesak commented 9 years ago

Finally I can build with TDMGCC64 with the instruction above, And I will try using VS2012 with your clue @bodrick

Windows 8.1, 64-bit: 1st draft -- comments and improvements welcome.

Install MSYS:

Not sure if this is required, but would be needed if you want to build your own copy of some of the included DLLs and is how I set up my build environment.

Download MSYS from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/ For this guide I've used: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/mingw/Installer/mingw-get-setup.exe

Windows 8.1, Visual Studio 64-bit: 1st draft -- comments and improvements welcome.

Install Visual Studio Express 2013

If you don't alreadu have Visual Studio you can install the Microsoft "Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows Desktop" available from http://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/products/visual-studio-express-vs.aspx which was used for this guide.

Make sure you get "Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows Desktop" specifically as there are several versions on that page.

Build wxWidgets

Build instructions now available in the Wiki -- https://github.com/cjcliffe/CubicSDR/wiki

Dantali0n commented 9 years ago

Want to point out instructions by pwarren for debian 8 work on ubuntu 14.04 aswell.

cjcliffe commented 9 years ago

@Dantali0n thanks -- I'll update the Wiki

cjcliffe commented 9 years ago

Thanks for the help here everyone -- the build notes should all be in the Wiki now; please feel free to make any updates or additions there -- I'll close this issue for now.

Build on Visual C 2013 with "Release" is Ok , but if you want to build with "Debug" you need some modify : Put Preprocessor _ITERATOR_DEBUG_LEVEL=1 , and on ScopeCanvas::OnPaint(wxPaintEvent& WXUNUSED(event)) you need to modify code , if you access array demodAudioData->data, it will catch up a runtime error . I change the code as following it work const wxSize ClientSize = GetClientSize(); std::vector tmp;

if (!wxGetApp().getAudioVisualQueue()->empty()) {
    AudioThreadInput *demodAudioData;
    wxGetApp().getAudioVisualQueue()->pop(demodAudioData);
    int iMax = demodAudioData->data.size();
    if (demodAudioData && iMax) {
        if (waveform_points.size() != iMax * 2) {
            waveform_points.resize(iMax * 2);
        }

        tmp.resize(iMax);
        memcpy(&tmp[0], &demodAudioData->data[0], iMax*sizeof(float));

        for (int i = 0 ; i < iMax; i++) {
        //for (int i = 0, iMax = demodAudioData->data.size(); i < iMax; i++) {

            waveform_points[i * 2 + 1] = tmp[i] * 0.5f;
                waveform_points[i * 2] = ((double)i / (double)iMax);

        }

        setStereo(demodAudioData->channels == 2);
    } else {
        std::cout << "Incoming Demodulator data empty?" << std::endl;
    }
}
dovandung commented 9 years ago

I still checking why it make a runtime error
