README file for command files for building SNFServer library and applications



Copyright (c) 2009-2012 ARM Research Laboratories



This is the README file for building the SNFMulti library and

SNFMultiTest application using the 64-bit MinGW toolchain.



Prerequisites



  1) Install the 64-bit MinGW compiler in C:\MinGW-64.



  2) Modify the MinGW distribution as follows:



     a) Modify c:\mingw-64\x86_64-w64-mingw32\include\winioctl.h:



     	Change "Unknown" enumeration name to "_Unknown" (at approximately line 490).



     b) Modify c:\mingw-64\x86_64-w64-mingw32\include\math.h:



     	Command out "struct exception;" (at approximately line 15).



To build SNFMulti.dll



  1) Run "compileSNFMultiDLL.cmd".  This compiles the SNFMulti files

  for building a DLL.  The object files are created in the current

  directory.  The source files are in the ../SNFMulti and

  ../CodeDweller directories.



  2) Run "buildSNFMultiDLL.cmd".  This builds snfmulti.dll,

  libsnfmulti.a, and snfmulti.def.  These are the same files built

  by Code::Blocks.



To build the import and export SNFMulti libraries for VS2008:



  1) With the VS2008 command prompt, run "buildVS2008SNFMultiImportLib.cmd".

  This reads snfmulti.def and creates vs2008_snfmulti.lib (the SNFMulti import

  library) and vs2008_snfmulti.exp (the SNFMulti export library).



To copy to where the sample programs can find the files:



  1) Run "installSNFMultiLibrary.cmd".  This copies the output files into

  the ..\64bitDll directory.



To build SNFMultiTest linked with SNFMulti.dll:



   1) Run "buildSNFMultiTestDLL.cmd".  This builds SNFMultiTest.exe,

   linking with SNFMulti.dll.  Because SNFMulti.dll is in the current

   directory, SNFMultiTest.exe can be run from the command line

   without modifying the PATH variable.



To run SNFMultiTest:



  1) Make sure that all DLLs required by MinGW are available to

     SNFMultiTest.  For example, MinGW-64 with gcc 4.4.0 needs

     libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll, which is in \MinGW-64\bin.



  2) Make sure that the sniffer configuration file is named

     prescale.xml, and is in the current directory.  A suitable

     configuration file is ..\SNFMultiSDK_Windows_3.1\snf_engine.xml.
