===================

|
|
|
|
Windows
|
|
|
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To use the Repeater control software you will first need to build the latest
|
|
|
|
|
version of wxWidgets (http://www.wxwidgets.org), the version I used was 2.8.12,
|
|
|
|
|
I also installed it in the default location which is C:\wxWidgets-2.8.12.
|
|
|
|
|
version of wxWidgets (http://www.wxwidgets.org), the version I used was 3.0.4.
|
|
|
|
|
I also installed it in the default location which is C:\wxWidgets-3.0.4.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You will also need a copy of PortAudio (http://www.portaudio.com), I used the
|
|
|
|
|
latest stable version which is currently 20071207 and it appears to be fine. I
|
|
|
|
|
put that into the "Visual Studio 2008\Projects" folder alongside the source code
|
|
|
|
|
for Repeater itself. A skeleton version of PortAudio suitable for using to build
|
|
|
|
|
Repeater is available from the pcrepeatercontroller Yahoo group in the
|
|
|
|
|
Files/Windows Extras folder.
|
|
|
|
|
latest stable version and it appears to be fine. I put that into the
|
|
|
|
|
"Visual Studio 2017\Projects" folder alongside the source code for the
|
|
|
|
|
Repeater itself.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For compiling I use Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition downloaded from Microsoft
|
|
|
|
|
For compiling I use Visual C++ 2017 Community Edition downloaded from Microsoft
|
|
|
|
|
for free. I recommend that you use the same.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build wxWidgets, you simply need to open Visual Studio 2008 using the File ->
|
|
|
|
|
Open -> Projects/Solutions and load the wx_dll.dsw file to be found in
|
|
|
|
|
wxWidgets-2.8.12\build\msw directory and then go into Batch Build and select the
|
|
|
|
|
DLL Unicode Debug and DLL Uncode Release entries for every one, this take a
|
|
|
|
|
little time! Then build them.

|
Unfortunately building the software under Windows also requires the downloading
|
|
|
|
|
of a very large file from Microsoft, the WDK. Adding this to Visual Studio
|
|
|
|
|
causes a lot of problems, so I created an extract of the required files from the
|
|
|
|
|
kit and used that instead. If you do want to build this software from scratch,
|
|
|
|
|
then download the files HID.zip and WinUSB.zip from the Yahoo! group. Otherwise
|
|
|
|
|
simply use the supplied binaries.
|
|
|
|
|
of a very large file from Microsoft, the WDK. There is no easy way around this
|
|
|
|
|
but once installed it can be forgotten about.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The path names for things like wxWidgets and PortAudio are embedded within the
|
|
|
|
|
Solution and Project preferences, and will need changing if anything other than
|
|
|
|
|
these default locations are used. The first pass through the compiler will no
|
|
|
|
|
doubt tell you all that you need to know if there are problems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once you have built the executables, you will need to copy the
|
|
|
|
|
portaudio_x86.dll, wxbase28u_vc_custom.dll, wxmsw28u_adv_vc_custom.dll,
|
|
|
|
|
and wxmsw28u_core_vc_custom.dll to the same directory as your newly
|
|
|
|
|
built executables in order for it to run. If you are running in debug mode then
|
|
|
|
|
the required wxWidgets files have the names xxx28ud_xxxx instead. These can be
|
|
|
|
|
found in the wxWidgets-2.8.12\lib\vc_dll directory.
|
|
|
|
|
Once you have built the executables, you will need to copy the correct portaudio
|
|
|
|
|
and wxWidgets files to the same location as the executables. For 32-bit systems
|
|
|
|
|
these are portaudio_x86.dll, wxbase30u_vc_custom.dll, wxmsw30u_adv_vc_custom.dll,
|
|
|
|
|
and wxmsw30u_core_vc_custom.dll. On 64-bit systems you'll need portaudio_x64.dll,
|
|
|
|
|
wxbase30u_vc_x64_custom.dll, wxmsw30u_adv_vc_x64_custom.dll, and
|
|
|
|
|
wxmsw30u_core_vc_x64_custom.dll
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are running in debug mode then the required wxWidgets files have the names
|
|
|
|
|
xxx30ud_xxxx instead. These can be found in the wxWidgets-3.0.4\lib\vc_dll
|
|
|
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is also probable that you'll need to install a copy of the latest Visual C++
|
|
|
|
|
run-time libraries from Microsoft, if you are not running the Repeater software
