Graphviz Build Instructions for Windows

-(Graphviz versions > 2.14) +(Graphviz versions >= 2.22) +

+We now build both Visual Studio and MinGW versions of Graphviz. +In addition, the source package comes with project files for Visual Studio, +so building from source should be fairly simple in either case. +

+The first step is to add the third-party libraries. This are listed +here. +This is most easily done by installing +a Windows binary version of GTK 2.0 or later. +
+Next, download and unwrap the Graphviz source package. Go to +http://www.graphviz.org/Download_source.php +and copy over either the stable release +or the development source package. +

+Let $ROOT be the root directory (folder) +in which you stored the Graphviz source. +

Building with Visual Studio

+Copy the file $ROOT/windows/config.h into $ROOT. +
+Copy the folder $ROOT/windows/FEATURE into $ROOT. +
+Start Visual Studio and read in $ROOT/graphviz.sln. +There are project files for all of the parts of Graphviz. +
+Modify the various settings for include file and library directories to find +the third-party software. +
+Modify the settings as to where you want the software installed. +
+Build Graphviz. +

Building with MinGW

Install MinGW and Msys. This gives a mini GNU-like compile environment +

Set environment variables based on your machine, giving values to the +first six below: +


++export INSTALLROOT           # Root install directory
+export GTKDIR                # Root of GTK tree
+export FONTCONFIGINCLUDEDIR  # Path of fontconfig include dir
+export FONTCONFIGLIBDIR      # Path of fontconfig lib dir
+export FREETYPEINCLUDEDIR    # Path of freetype2 include dir
+export FREETYPELIBDIR        # Path of freetype2 lib dir
+
+export CFLAGS="-DGVDLL=1"
+export CPPFLAGS="-I$GTKDIR/include -I$GTKDIR/include/freetype2 "
+export LDFLAGS="-L$GTKDIR/lib -no-undefined"
+export FONTCONFIG_CFLAGS=-I$GTKDIR/include/
+export FONTCONFIG_LIBS="-L$FONTCONFIGLIBDIR -lfontconfig"
+export FREETYPE2_CFLAGS=-I$FREETYPEINCLUDEDIR
+export FREETYPE2_LIBS="-L$FREETYPELIBDIR
+export PKG_CONFIG=$GTKDIR/bin/pkg-config
+export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$GTKDIR/lib/pkgconfig
+
+export PANGOFLAGS="--with-fontconfig --with-fontconfiglibdir$FONTCONFIGLIBDIR --with-fontconfigincludedir=$FONTCONFIGINCLUDEDIR --with-pangocairo"
+
+
+

Change directory to $ROOT and run configure:
+++./configure -C --prefix=$INSTALLROOT --without-gdk-pixbuf --with-mylibgd --disable-swig --without-x --disable-tcl --without-ipsepcola --with-codegens --enable-shared --disable-static --with-freetype=$GTKDIR/lib --enable-ltdl $PANGOFLAGS --without-gtk --without-gtkgl + + + +When configure finishes, it lists all of the Graphviz features that have been +enabled. If there are problems, you can check for errors in config.log. +You may have to add or modify +other flags and environment variables for configure to give you the +settings you want. Run configure --help +to see the allowed options and environment variables. +
Run make +
Run make install +

+These builds create a feature-full version of Graphviz. You can tailor +them to your wants. This is fairly simple for MinGW: just remove or reset +the flag of the option you don't want. For Visual Studio, you will probably +need to reset some of the values in config.h and some of the +compile-time options. +
