Building Mumble on Windows

Mumble has quite a few dependencies for building on Windows, and as the feature set grows, so does the list of dependencies. This page will try to detail the steps required to set up a Win32 build environment.

The paths used here equal the defaults assumed in the Mumble build files. You are free to change them, but you'll then need to change the mumble.pro file as well. If you find any problems or incorrect steps in this article please either correct them or contact us and we will try our best to resolve the issue.

Also note, that if you are submitting a bug report for a selfbuilt executable, we expect you to either

  • Follow these instructions to the letter

or

  • Report any deviations from these instructions

Deviations means anything, from "I installed to the D: drive" to "I changed the gcc build options for Qt" or "I used another version of Speex".

Preparations

Create C:\dev, and inside that directory create a file prep.bat containing:

@echo off
SET QTDIR=C:\dev\Qt4.4.1
SET DBUSDIR=C:\dev\dbus
SET LIB=
SET MYSQL=c:\dev\mysql
SET ICE=c:\dev\Ice
CALL "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat" x86
SET INCLUDE=C:\dev\WinSDK\include;%INCLUDE%
SET PATH=%QTDIR%\bin;%DBUSDIR%\bin;c:\dev\OpenSSL\bin;c:\dev\cmake\bin;%MYSQL%\lib\opt;%ICE%\bin;%PATH%


Start a new command shell (run cmd.exe) and: (Note: make sure you have Visual C++ Express edition or Visual Studio 2008 and Git installed before you run prep.bat or you will get errors).

C:
CD \dev
prep.bat

Whenever something appears

like this

you're supposed to enter it in that command shell (or copy it from this webpage and rightclick in the command window and select Paste). When you later want to compile things, remember to call prep.bat first to set paths correctly.

TortoiseSVN

Download the most recent version of TortoiseSVN at http://tortoisesvn.net/downloads and install it. The defaults are fine.

Git

Download the most recent Git from http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/downloads/list and install it. Make sure you select "Run Git from the Windows Command Prompt".

Visual Studio

You'll need Visual Studio 2008 (or Visual C++ Express Edition) with SP1.

Visual Studio 2008 Professional 90 day trial: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/vs2008/products/cc268305.aspx

Visual C++ Express Edition: http://www.microsoft.com/express/download/#webInstall (Look at the bottom right corner for "Visual C++ 2008".)

Boost

Download http://prdownloads.sf.net/boost/boost_1_36_0.7z?download and http://prdownloads.sf.net/boost/boost-jam-3.1.16-1-ntx86.zip?download and unzip both to C:\dev\

cd \dev\boost_1_3_0
copy ..\boost-jam-3.1.16-1-ntx86\bjam.exe
bjam --toolset=msvc --prefix=C:\dev\Boost install

This might take a while, but when done you'll have Boost installed. Note that none of the other build dependencies do themselves depend on boost, so if you want you can just continue in a new command shell (but remember to call prep.bat). Once all is done, you can safely delete the boost_1_36_0 and boost-jam directories. If you get the warning, that some targets were skipped or failed, it can be ignored for our purposes.

Microsoft Windows SDK

Go here to download: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=E6E1C3DF-A74F-4207-8586-711EBE331CDC&displaylang=en . At the time of this writing, the latest version is the "Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 and .NET Framework 3.5". Install it to C:\dev\WinSDK

As you are going through the installer you will come to a window where you will see two main categories and then subcategories below them. Uncheck the green check boxes next to “Documentation” and “Samples”. Continue with the installation. These take a long time to download and are not really needed for mumble.

Microsoft DirectX SDK

Go to http://msdn.microsoft.com/directx/sdk/ and download the latest SDK. Install it to c:\dev\DXSDK\

WinDBUS

From http://download.cegit.de/kde-windows/repository/win32libs/single/ download the lib and bin files for iconv, libxml and zlib. Unpack them to 'c:\Program Files\win32libs'. If you have extracted them all correctly you should see inside of 'c:\Program Files\win32libs' "include, bin, lib, and manifest" folders. Note that you may also download the dbus library from there, but if you do it will not automatically spawn dbus-daemon as that needs patching.

Download http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.6/cmake-2.6.1-win32-x86.zip and unpack it to c:\dev. Rename the top directory to just 'cmake'.

Checkout the SVN of WinDBus from https://windbus.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/windbus/trunk to c:\dev\windbus

cd \dev
mkdir windbus-build
cd windbus-build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DDBUS_INSTALL_SYSTEM_LIBS=ON -G "NMake Makefiles" c:\dev\windbus\cmake
nmake
nmake install

Regardless of what you say, Windbus is installed to c:\<Program Files>\dbus. Move that entire directory into c:\dev (so it ends up as c:\dev\dbus)

Copy all .dll files from c:\Program Files\win32libs\bin to c:\dev\dbus\bin

You can remove the c:\dev\windbus and c:\dev\windbus-build directories at this point.

OpenSSL

Download the latest OpenSSL source (you can find the latest source at: http://www.openssl.org/source/ , get the one that has, in red, [LATEST] next to it. Unpack it to c:\dev\ (it will create a directory called openssl-x.y.z)

Download and install ActivePerl. You can find it here: http://www.activestate.com/store/download_file.aspx?binGUID=0e991cbb-7482-4900-88b0-4218add83d01

Open a new shell (so that %PATH% includes ActivePerl).

cd \dev
prep
cd openssl<Press tab and it will autocomplete to, as of this writing, openssl-0.9.8h>
perl Configure VC-WIN32 --prefix=c:\\dev\\OpenSSL
ms\do_masm
nmake -f ms\ntdll.mak
nmake -f ms\ntdll.mak install

You can remove c:\dev\openssl-x.y.z after this.

MySQL

Download the latest release of MySQL Server. It can be found here: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.0.html#downloads . Use a custom install and install only the headers and libraries. Use c:\dev\MySQL as the base directory. To do this go through the installer until you come to a window that says "Custom Setup" at the top. You will see five parent selections: MYSQL Server, Client Programs, etc. On all of the first four click on the little hard drive icon and select "This feature will not be available." On the last one--the fifth--click the red X and select "This feature, and all subfeatures, will be installed on local hard drive." Proceed through the installer.

ZeroC ICE

Download the latest version of ZeroC ICE from http://www.zeroc.com/download.html and make sure you select the VS2008 version. Install to c:\dev\Ice

Qt

Download ftp://ftp.trolltech.com/qt/source/qt-win-opensource-src-4.4.1.zip and unzip to C:\dev. Rename the directory from qt-win-opensource-src-4.4.1 to Qt4.4.1

Download http://mumble.sourceforge.net/qt441msvc.patch and put it in c:\dev\Qt4.4.1. Then, start Git Bash, which came with git.

cd /c/dev/Qt4.4.1
patch -lp0 < qt441msvc.patch
exit

Start a regular command shell:

cd \dev
prep
cd Qt4.4.1
configure -debug-and-release -qt-sql-sqlite -qt-sql-mysql -no-qt3support -no-exceptions -qt-zlib -qt-libpng  -qt-libjpeg  -openssl-linked -dbus-linked -I c:\dev\OpenSSL\include -L c:\dev\OpenSSL\lib -I c:\dev\dbus\include -L c:\dev\dbus\lib -I c:\dev\mysql\include -L c:\dev\mysql\lib\opt -platform win32-msvc2008
nmake

This will also take quite a while.

Download Mumble SVN and Speex Git

Open c:\dev, rightclick and SVN Checkout...

Repository is

https://mumble.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/mumble/trunk

checkout to C:\dev\mumble\

cd \dev
prep
cd mumble
git clone http://git.xiph.org/speex.git/

Building Mumble and Murmur

Once all of the above is done... Open C:\dev\mumble\src\mumble\mumble.pro and remove the line which says CONFIG += asio. That is only needed for ASIO support, which requires downloads of proprietary ASIO SDK to compile.

Note that this builds the debug versions, which is what we strongly recommend to use while developing. If you want to send the binary to someone else, use nmake release instead of the last nmake command listed below. This will result in a much smaller binary with fewer dependencies.

cd \dev\mumble
qmake
nmake clean
nmake
