quotes).
- * Consider if you want to use a previously installed APR and
- APR-Util (such as those provided with many OSes) or if
- you need to use the APR and APR-Util from the
- httpd-2.5.x-deps.tar.gz tarball via ./configure's
- --with-included-apr option. This is required if you don't
- have the compiler which the system APR was built with. It
- can also be advantageous if you are a developer who will be
- linking your code with Apache or using a debugger to step
- through server code, as it removes the possibility of
- version or compile-option mismatches with APR and APR-util
- code.
+ * Read the section "APR - Unix" below.
* If you are a developer building Apache directly from
Subversion, you will need to run ./buildconf before running
The easiest way to find all of the configuration flags for Apache 2.5
is to run ./configure --help.
+ APR - Unix
+ ----------
- Quick Start - Windows
- ---------------------
+ httpd trunk (httpd development version 2.5) can use APR trunk (future
+ APR version 2.0) or the combination of the current APR 1.x branch and
+ the current APR-util 1.x branch. (APR trunk bundles the features in
+ APR-util 1.x.)
- For complete documentation, see manual/platform/windows.html.en or
- http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.5/platform/windows.html.
+ The httpd buildconf step, required when building httpd from Subversion,
+ must have access to the APR source. The httpd configure step, always
+ required, can configure the APR source in srclib or use a previously-
+ built APR.
+
+ APR (and APR-util if using APR 1.x) can be built with httpd from httpd's
+ srclib directory or can be built separately, prior to building httpd.
+
+ Building APR with httpd from httpd's srclib directory is required if
+ you don't have the compiler which the system APR was built with, and it
+ can also be advantageous if you are a developer who will be linking your
+ code with httpd or using a debugger to step through server code, as it
+ removes the possibility of version or compile-option mismatches with
+ APR and APR-util code.
+
+ To use APR trunk in srclib:
+
+ Check out APR trunk in srclib/apr with the following command:
+
+ svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/apr/apr/trunk srclib/apr
+
+ buildconf will find it automatically. Use the --with-included-apr
+ argument to httpd configure.
+
+ To use APR 1.x and APR-util 1.x in srclib:
+
+ Check out the current branches as srclib/apr and srclib/apr-util with
+ the following commands:
- The Apache/Win32 binaries are distributed as Windows Installer packages
- (.msi) named httpd-2.5.xx-win32-x86-no_ssl.msi for a version without mod_ssl
- and httpd-2.5.xx-win32-x86-openssl-1.0.1x.msi for a version including the
- mod_ssl plus the openssl library and command line utility. Additional 64 bit
- binaries have similarly named -win64-x64 package names. These packages
- may be unpacked without "installing" them by using the msiexec /a option.
+ svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/apr/apr/branches/1.5.x srclib/apr
+ svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/apr/apr-util/branches/1.5.x srclib/apr-util
- If you have unpacked a source distribution (named httpd-2.5.x-win32-src.zip,
- without any -x86 or -x64 notation) you must compile the package yourself,
- see the links mentioned above. Unless you intended to do this, please look
- again for an .msi package in http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/binaries/win32/
- and install that desired .msi package.
+ buildconf will find them automatically. Use the --with-included-apr
+ argument to httpd configure.
- The .msi package configures the httpd.conf file, and installs and starts
- the Apache2.x service for you. It also installs plenty of useful shortcuts
- and the taskbar ApacheMonitor. We strongly encourage you to use it.
+ To use existing checkouts of APR (and APR-util if using APR 1.x):
+
+ httpd buildconf must have access to the source trees. Use these arguments
+ to httpd buildconf:
+
+ --with-apr=[path to apr source] --with-apr-util=[path to apr-util source]
+
+ (Omit --with-apr-util if using APR trunk.)
+
+ httpd configure must have access to a previously build apr. Use these
+ arguments to httpd configure:
+
+ --with-apr=[path to apr install] --with-apr-util=[path to apr-util install]
+
+ (Omit --with-apr-util if using APR trunk.)
