Building eXtremeDB Libraries on Windows

In addition, you’ll find a make.bat batch file installed in the top-level installation directory. With this file you can build eXtremeDB SDK components outside your IDE.

To run this build script its necessary to specify the environment variables BUILD_TYPE to the version of Visual Studio for this package and BUILD_PLT to either x64 or WIN32 depending on the operating system word size. For example, for a "win64_vs2013" package, execute the command line

 
    make.bat BUILD_TYPE=VS2013 BUILD_PLT=x64 samples
     

or the following three commands

 
    set BUILD_TYPE=VS2013
    set BUILD_PLT=x64
    make.bat samples
     

If you have a source code license you can also rebuild the host tools and target libraries. Again, set the BUILD_TYPE and BUILD_PLT environment variables appropriately and run make with the command line:

 
    make.bat tools
     

to build the host tools and target libraries, or

 
    make.bat all
     

to build all SDK samples, host tools and target libraries. You can also specify command line option REBUILD=on|off to indicate whether the binaries should be rebuilt (default is on), and SHOW_BUILD_LOG=on which will display the build log.
