How to build nfc-laboratory / build error msys2 / mingw64 (Windows10)

bvernoux commented 3 years ago

Could you add in Wiki an How to build nfc-laboratory with requirements (does it work with msys2 Mingw64 and which dependencies are required ...) ?

Update and dependencies to be installed for msys2 mingw64:
- pacman -Syu
- pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-ninja mingw-w64-x86_64-qt5

How to build with msys2 Mingw64:

git clone https://github.com/josevcm/nfc-laboratory.git
cd nfc-laboratory
mkdir build && cd build

cmake ../

ninja Doing those steps with actual repository (including https://github.com/josevcm/nfc-laboratory/commit/df04d21186cd11f1f96282ba90cde5f4afd5742c) the build fail with such error

Working solution is to use Qt Creator (Tested with latest Qt Creator 4.15.2 with Qt 5.15.2 + mingw81_64 ) then import the nfc-laboratory/CMakeLists.txt project and built it with MinGW 64-bit (Tested with success with Qt 5.15.2 + mingw81_64 on Windows10Pro 21H1) Example of batch used(requires msys2/linux cp/rm commands) to do the deployment (after build of the release version with Qt Creator)

set qtpath=C:\Qt\5.15.2\mingw81_64\bin\
set PATH=%qtpath%;%PATH%
set execpath="%qtpath%\windeployqt.exe"
set nflabpath=D:\_proj\__Lab_Tools\NFC\nfc-laboratory
set build_path=%nflabpath%\..\build-nfc-laboratory-Desktop_Qt_5_15_2_MinGW_64_bit-Release\src\nfc-app\app-qt

cp -a %build_path%/. ./
rm -rf CMakeFiles nfc-lab_autogen installerResources cmake_install.cmake libnfc-lab.dll.a
%execpath% nfc-lab.exe

cp %qtpath%\libgcc_s_seh-1.dll ./
cp %qtpath%\libwinpthread-1.dll ./
cp %qtpath%\libstdc++-6.dll ./

cp %nflabpath%\dll\glew-2.1.0\x86_64-w64-mingw32\bin\libglew32.dll ./
cp %nflabpath%\dll\freetype-2.11.0\x86_64-w64-mingw32\bin\libfreetype.dll ./
cp %nflabpath%\dll\usb-1.0.20\x86_64-w64-mingw32\bin\libusb-1.0.dll ./

1) For information "Signal" Tab requires "Geometry Shader..." which are potentially not supported on integrated Intel Graphic Card (like old Intel HD Graphics 4000) so the Signal will show only NFC Field (NFC Frequency will do not display anything) 2) Disconnect AirSpy USB cable from computer before to launch the application as it seems the connection at startup/launch is not working correctly so AirSpy USB cable shall be connected after to have launched the application and all work fine.

Thanks for the comments and help, I have included the build instructions in the project documentation.

josevcm commented 3 years ago

I will check the problem with the connection of the usb cable with AirSpy
