Prerequisites for Windows
|
||
|
|
=========================
|

|
|
MSYS2
|
||
|
|
-----
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To build Idris 2 on Windows, an Unix-like environment is needed for
|
||
|
|
all the utilities used during the build. `MSYS2 <https://www.msys2.org>`_ provides that for us.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Download the latest version of MSYS2
|
||
|
|
2. Run the installer. Don't install it under Program files
|
||
|
|
as it needs to write files (the "unix" home directory lies
|
||
|
|
under there, for example)
|
||
|
|
3. In the directory where you installed MSYS2, find the file
|
||
|
|
``mingw64.ini`` and add the line ``MSYS2_PATH_TYPE=inherit``.
|
||
|
|
This adds the normal windows PATH to the shell in MSYS2.
|
||
|
|
4. Start MSYS2 (from the start menu search for mingw64 or
|
||
|
|
click on mingw64.exe)
|
||
|
|
5. Update the installation with the latest releases with
|
||
|
|
``pacman -Syu``
|
||
|
|
5. Install the programs that the build needs with::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ pacman -S make mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc
|
||
|
|
|
||
|

Chez Scheme
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Chez Scheme has a ready-made installer at `GitHub <https://github.com/cisco/ChezScheme/releases>`_
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Download the installer and run it
|
||
|
|
2. Add the threaded 64-bit scheme to the PATH. It is the
|
||
|
|
``\bin\ta6nt`` subdirectory to where Chez Scheme was installed. So if you used the default directory it
|
||
|
|
will be in ``C:\Program Files\Chez Scheme 9.5.4\bin\ta6nt``
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Building
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Start a fresh MSYS2 shell so that it knows about your
|
||
|
|
modified PATH (it's important to use Mingw64 to get
|
||
|
|
access to the right compilers).
|
||
|
|
2. Navigate to the Idris2 directory.
|
||
|
|
3. Set the SCHEME environment variable that Idris2 needs
|
||
|
|
``export SCHEME=scheme``. This can be set permanently in the
|
||
|
|
bash profile file or the Windows settings.
|
||
|
|
4. Now ``make bootstrap && make install`` should build Idris2 and
|
||
|
|
install it in ``home/<username>/.idris2/bin`` under your MSYS2
|
||
|
|
installation. If you add that to the PATH in Windows settings it
|
||
|
|
will be usable from any command line (including Powershell or DOS), that you open.
