This project has been ported to Windows. A working solution file
|
|
exists in this directory:
|
|
ctemplate.sln
|
|
|
|
You can load this solution file into either VC++ 7.1 (Visual Studio
|
|
2003) or VC++ 8.0 (Visual Studio 2005) -- in the latter case, it will
|
|
automatically convert the files to the latest format for you.
|
|
|
|
When you build the solution, it will create libctemplate.dll, the main
|
|
library for this project, plus a number of unittests, which you can
|
|
run by hand (or, more easily, under the Visual Studio debugger) to
|
|
make sure everything is working properly on your system. The binaries
|
|
will end up in a directory called "debug" or "release" in the
|
|
top-level directory (next to the .sln file).
|
|
|
|
I don't know very much about how to install DLLs on Windows, so you'll
|
|
have to figure out that part for yourself. If you choose to just
|
|
re-use the existing .sln, make sure you set the IncludeDir's
|
|
appropriately! Look at the properties for libctemplate.dll.
|
|
|
|
If you wish to link to ctemplate statically instead of using the .dll,
|
|
you can; see the example project template_unittest_static. For this
|
|
to work, you'll need to add "/D CTEMPLATE_DLL_DECL=" to the compile
|
|
line of every ctemplate .cc file.
|
|
|
|
Note that these systems are set to build in Debug mode by default.
|
|
You may want to change them to Release mode.
|
|
|
|
Currently, Template::StringToTemplate returns a Template object that
|
|
you, the caller, must free. We've heard reports that Windows can have
|
|
trouble allocating memory in a .dll that is meant to be freed in the
|
|
application. Thus, we suggest you not use StringToTemplate from
|
|
Windows. Instead, you can use Template::StringToTemplateCache()
|
|
followed by Template::GetTemplate().
|
|
|
|
I have little experience with Windows programming, so there may be
|
|
better ways to set this up than I've done! If you run across any
|
|
problems, please post to the google-ctemplate Google Group, or report
|
|
them on the ctemplate Google Code site:
