Windward IKVM

Build

See HOWTO for the build instructions. The quick start is

• Install NAnt (https://sourceforge.net/projects/nant/files/nant/0.92/).

A note on using NAnt. If you encounter a System.Security.SecurityException while running nant, apply the following fix.

From stackoverflow

I found that the problem was Windows security related in that the downloaded NAnt zip file needed additional security related configuration to be performed: before extracting, one must right click on the zip file, select Properties and under the General tab, click the button labelled Unblock, the click OK on the Properties window. Now, extract the file to your desired location.

• Must be set to use JDK 8.

• Download ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll (http://www.icsharpcode.net/opensource/sharpziplib/) and copy to the bin folder.

• Download openjdk-8u45-b14 (http://www.frijters.net/openjdk-8u45-b14-stripped.zip) and unpack in the peer folder to ikvm.

• In the root folder run nant.

nant

Produces a release build.

nant -D:debug=true

Produces a debug build with all. pdb files in the bin folder.

• To produce the strongly named assemblies

Add the ikvm-key.snk to the key container
