# Build compiler using CMake
Use the following steps to build using cmake:
mkdir cmake-build
cd cmake-build
cmake ..
make
### Create an eclipse project
mkdir cmake-ec && cd cmake-ec
cmake -G "Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles" ..
make
Now open the folder cmake-ec using eclipse.
### Cross compile using mingw32 and generate a Windows Installer with CPack
mkdir cmake-mingw32 && cd cmake-mingw32
cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../build/cmake/mingw32-toolchain.cmake -DBUILD_COMPILER=ON -DBUILD_LIBRARIES=OFF -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF ..
cpack
## Build on windows
### using Git Bash
Git Bash provides flex and bison, so you just need to do this:
mkdir cmake-vs && cd cmake-vs
cmake -DWITH_SHARED_LIB=off ..
### using Win flex-bison
In order to build on windows with winflexbison a few additional steps are necessary:
1. Download winflexbison from http://sourceforge.net/projects/winflexbison/
2. Extract the winflex bison files to for e.g. C:\winflexbison
3. Make the CMake variables point to the correct binaries.
* FLEX_EXECUTABLE = C:/winbuild/win_flex.exe
* BISON_EXECUTABLE = C:/winbuild/win_bison.exe
4. Generate a Visual Studio project:
```
mkdir cmake-vs && cd cmake-vs
cmake -G "Visual Studio 12" -DWITH_SHARED_LIB=off ..
```
5. Now open the folder build_vs using Visual Studio 2013.
# Building the Thrift IDL compiler in Windows
If you don't want to use CMake you can use the already available Visual Studio
2010 solution.
The Visual Studio project contains pre-build commands to generate the
thriftl.cc, thrifty.cc and thrifty.hh files which are necessary to build
the compiler. These depend on bison, flex and their dependencies to
work properly. If this doesn't work on a system, try these manual
pre-build steps.
Open compiler.sln and remove the Pre-build commands under the project's
Properties -> Build Events -> Pre-Build Events.
Download flex & bison from http://jaisantonyk.wordpress.com/2008/03/16/lex-and-yaccbison-in-windows/
Download bison.simple in addition to bison.exe . This build of bison is easier to use
than the one on sourceforge which has a myriad of dependencies.
Place these binaries somewhere in the path.
From a command prompt:
> cd thrift/compiler/cpp
> flex -osrc\thriftl.cc src\thriftl.ll
In the generated thriftl.cc, comment out #include <unistd.h>
Place a copy of bison.simple in thrift/compiler/cpp
> bison -y -o "src/thrifty.cc" --defines src/thrifty.yy
> move src\thrifty.cc.hh src\thrifty.hh
Bison might generate the yacc header file "thrifty.cc.h" with just one h ".h" extension; in this case you'll have to rename to "thrifty.h".
> move src\windows\version.h.in src\windows\version.h
Download inttypes.h from the interwebs and place it in an include path
location (e.g. thrift/compiler/cpp/src).
Build the compiler in Visual Studio.
