Compiling EMAN2 on Windows

1. Use cmake to generate Visual Studio 2005 solution:

  • Download cmake windows installer cmake-2.6.0-win32-x86.exe from http://www.cmake.org/HTML/index.html.

  • run cmake, fill the EMAN2 source directory to "Where is the source code", and specify a directory to "Where to build the binaries".
  • click configure button, then OK. You will get error dialog. Then follow the next item to solve all dependency libraries.

3. The major trouble of compiling EMAN2 on Visual Studio 2005 come from the dependent library:

  • Note: I suppose all packages are installed on C: drive. You can adjust it according to your actual path.
  • Python

    Download python.2.5.2.msi from http://www.python.org, run it to install.

    set PYTHON_INLCUDE_PATH to C:/Python25/include
    set PYTHON_LIBRARY to C:/Python25/libs/python25.lib
  • Numpy

    Download numpy-1.1.0-win32-superpack-python2.5.exe from http://numpy.scipy.org, run it to install.

    unzip boost_1_35_0.zip.
    open a Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt, cd C:\boost_1_35_0\libs\python\build\

4. Actions before build:

  • In the Visual Studio 2005 menu, choose build -> configuration manager. Set the "Active Solution Configureation" to release. Then check the INSTALL and test in the check boxes.

  • right click the "Solution 'EMAN2'" inthe left "Solution Explorer" pane, then choose "Build Solution". If you see all 27 projects build succeeded. Then you got a successfull EMAN2 build.

5. Ignore specific library LIBC.lib

If you see this error message, follow the solution.

Problem: LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'LIBC.lib'
Solution: right click project -> Properties -> Linker -> Input -> Ignore Specific Library -> LIBC.lib

6. After compilation

  • change dll to pyd for all EMAN2 python extension libraries:
  • we need copy all the libpyxxx.dll file from EMAN2/bin directory to EMAN2/lib directory. And rename the dll extension to .pyd. Otherwise, we will get an error if we try to import EMAN2 in Python 2.5, "Import Error: no module named libpyxxx".
    ".dll is no longer supported as a filename extension for extension modules. .pyd is now the only filename extension that will searchfor".

7. runtime libraries for EMAN2 GUI program
