Guidance for building on Windows

SimonBiggs commented 4 years ago

Hi @thorfdbg,

I am attempting to support decoding of 1993 lossless JPEG natively on Windows and I cannot seem to find a compiled executable anywhere.

I have successfully compiled this library within Windows Services for Linux by doing the following:

git clone https://github.com/thorfdbg/libjpeg.git
cd libjpeg
./configure --prefix=/path/to/build-dir
make -j4
make install

This then allows me to successfully use the jpeg executable installed within ~/bin/wavelet/jpeg.

Nevertheless, I would like to distribute this functionality to other PCs through my Medical Physics Python library, PyMedPhys and requesting they set up Windows Services for Linux is unfortunately not viable. I have been attempting to compile this library within MSYS2. I have done this by downloading msys2 from http://www.msys2.org/ and then using pacman to install a range of tools that appear necessary.

Nevertheless, after all of that running:

./configure --prefix=/path/to/build-dir
make -j4

presents me with the following error:

Linking...
C:/Users/sbiggs/AppData/Local/msys2/mingw64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/9.2.0/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lc
collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [Makefile:143: link] Error 1
make: *** [Makefile:200: debug] Error 2

Any direction or nudge in the right direction would be massively appreciated.

I have also attempted using VS2013 with the provided vs12.0/jpeg/jpeg.sln file on a Windows 10 machine. When doing that I get the following errors:

Error   5   error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall CositedUpsampler<1,1>::CositedUpsampler<1,1>(class Environ *,unsigned long,unsigned long)" (??0?$CositedUpsampler@$00$00@@QAE@PAVEnviron@@KK@Z) referenced in function "public: static class UpsamplerBase * __cdecl UpsamplerBase::CreateUpsampler(class Environ *,int,int,unsigned long,unsigned long,bool)" (?CreateUpsampler@UpsamplerBase@@SAPAV1@PAVEnviron@@HHKK_N@Z)  C:\Users\sbiggs\git\libjpeg\vs12.0\jpeg\jpeg\jpeglib.lib(upsamplerbase.obj) jpeg

For reference I have pasted the full output of the ./configure command below.

I solved my own problem! :) ... after much trial and error.

I installed Visual Studio Code 2013, opened up the solution file at vs12.0/jpeg/jpeg.sln and then set the following:

Project > Properties > Configuration Properties > Linker > General > Force File Output set this to Undefined Symbol Only (/FORCE:UNRESOLVED). This was as per the guidance found at https://stackoverflow.com/a/2326554/3912576.

This produced jpeg.exe. For others to easily access it I have uploaded this executable to https://zenodo.org/record/3592182#.XgGeVUczZhE along with the source code.

The alternative if you're using MSYS2 is to change from -lc to -lmsvcrt in Makefile_Settings.gcc:

LDLIBS      = -lmsvcrt -lm $(EXTRA_LIBS) #gcc_s required for long division/multiplication on 32bit
