1File: docs/README.WIN32 2 3Last updated: 23 April 2011 4 5 6Quick Start 7----- ----- 8 9Windows drivers are build with SCons. Makefiles or Visual Studio projects are 10no longer shipped or supported. 11 12Run 13 14 scons osmesa mesagdi 15 16to build classic mesa Windows GDI drivers; or 17 18 scons libgl-gdi 19 20to build gallium based GDI driver. 21 22This will work both with MSVS or Mingw. 23 24 25Windows Drivers 26------- ------- 27 28At this time, only the gallium GDI driver is known to work. 29 30Source code also exists in the tree for other drivers in 31src/mesa/drivers/windows, but the status of this code is unknown. 32 33 34General 35------- 36 37After building, you can copy the above DLL files to a place in your 38PATH such as $SystemRoot/SYSTEM32. If you don't like putting things 39in a system directory, place them in the same directory as the 40executable(s). Be careful about accidentially overwriting files of 41the same name in the SYSTEM32 directory. 42 43The DLL files are built so that the external entry points use the 44stdcall calling convention. 45 46Static LIB files are not built. The LIB files that are built with are 47the linker import files associated with the DLL files. 48 49The si-glu sources are used to build the GLU libs. This was done 50mainly to get the better tessellator code. 51 52If you have a Windows-related build problem or question, please post 53to the mesa-dev or mesa-users list. 54
