It may not be necessary to build the core client;
|
|
you can get executables for many platforms at
|
|
<a href=http://boinc.berkeley.edu>http://boinc.berkeley.edu</a>.

If you have MySQL installed, you can just do:
|
|
<pre>
|
|
cd boinc
|
|
configure
|
|
make
|
|
</pre>
|
|
This will build <code>boinc/client/boinc_VERSION_PLATFORM</code>.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you don't have MySQL installed,
|
|
that configure step will fail.
|
|
You can use the following trick (thanks to Eric Myers for this):
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The idea is to trick the configure script into running a fake
|
|
mysql_config script. An easy way to do that is:
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
$ export MYSQL_CONFIG=true
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
or the setenv equivalent for tcsh.
|
|
This runs /bin/true or similar to
|
|
configure mysql, but ./configure does not fail.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Of course the server build fails when you say `make` when it tries to
|
|
build anything requiring mysql, but if you say `make -k` it will still
|
|
build the client and apps, lib and api.
|
|
You can also cd to client
|
|
or apps and say `make` there and that will work
|
|
(once lib and api are built).
|

<h3>Windows</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Open boinc.dsw (MSVC6) or boinc.sln (MSVC7).
|
|
Build either the Release or Debug version.
|
|
This should also build libraries and screensaver.
