'''Navit on Windows''' 
Progress on the win32 support will be documented on this page.


== Download the binary distribution package of Navit ==

The Win32 binary distribution of Navit can be downloaded via the [[Download Navit]] page, or download the [http://download.navit-project.org/navit/win32/svn/ Win32 bleeding edge] compiled daily from SVN.

The WinCE binary distribution of Navit can be downloaded via the [[Download Navit]] page, or download the [http://download.navit-project.org/navit/wince/svn/ WinCE bleeding edge] compiled daily from SVN.

==Tips and Tricks==
Compiling, configuring and running Navit on Windows can be a challenge at times. Below are a few hints, in addition to the more detailed instructions following.
*It is best not to use the “win32” GUI (ie <gui type="win32" />) as this is no longer being supported. It is advisable to use the “internal” GUI (<gui type="internal" />) instead.
*Up to and including Navit release 0.0.4 NMEA serial GPS receiver devices (USB/Bluetooth) were supported by the win32 port. Due to code changes Navit releases 0.1.0 and 0.1.1 have yet to re-support this functionality (refer to http://trac.navit-project.org/ticket/332 for an interim patch). You can configure the device by adapting the navit.xml file (specifically, the "source" attribute in the "vehicle" tag). For example, a serial device on Com4 can be configured for navit release 0.0.4 as follows:

  <vehicle name="GPSOnCom4" enabled="yes" active="1" source="file:COM4 baud=115200 parity=N data=8 stop=1" color="#0000ff"/>

==Compiling / debugging using CodeBlocks & mingw compiler==
Up to and including release 0.0.4 the Win32 builds were supported using the CodeBlocks/mingw development environment, in combination with the glade for win32 GTK devlopment toolkit. The CodeBlocks project files have been added to cvs repository. For release 0.1.0 and later use native mingw (see below) or cygwin (see below).

=== Downloads ===

In order to compile the win32 version of Navit, you need the following software development tools:
*Glade/gtk+ toolkit for win32 from 

[http://http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=98754 Glade 3.43 / Gtk 2.12.9]

[http://gladewin32.sourceforge.net/modules/wfdownloads/visit.php?lid=110 link ??broken?? Gtk+ 2.10.11]

[http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=98754&package_id=111411 SourceForgeDownload: Gtk+ 2.10.11]
*ming compiler from [http://www.mingw.org Website: mingw]

[http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435 SourceForgeDownload: MinGW] (select Automated MinGW installer)
*CodeBlocks IDE from [http://www.codeblocks.org/downloads.shtml CodeBlocks download page] (select recent development snapshot)

[http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=126998&package_id=138996 SourceForgeDownload: CodeBlocks]

=== Installation ===
Install the packages mentioned above. After everything has been installed you can open the navit.workspace file in CodeBlocks:

=== Compiling ===
*Start the CodeBlocks application
*Open the navit.workspace file (located in projs\CodeBlocks directory)
*Set the GTK_DIR enviroment variable in CodeBlocks (Setting/Environment, and select environments variables)
*the GTK_DIR should point to where you have installed the Glade/Gtk toolkit package (e.g. d:\gtk)

Now you should be able to  build/debug the navit project:

Notes:

'''ZLIB -lzdll message '''
''Settings> Compiler and Debugger..> Global compiler settings
In the Linker settings TAB (Add) C:\MinGW\lib\libzdll.a''

'''SAPI'''
''You need to download and install the [http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=5e86ec97-40a7-453f-b0ee-6583171b4530&displaylang=en Microsoft Speech SDK 5.1] for this project to build.''

=== Running from debugger ===
In order to run navit from the CodeBlocks debugger, you have to:
* Copy the navit.xml file from the source directory into the projs\CodeBlocks directory
* Copy the xpm directory from the toplevel directory into the projs\CodeBlocks directory
* Modify the navit.xml to set the map (currently only OSM binary files are supported)

==Compiling and running using cygwin==

===Dependencies===
You will probably need the following packages from cygwin :

* automake
* autoconf
* gtk2-x11-devel
* libqt4gui-devel
* gcc (g++ too for sdl)
* gettext-devel
* diffutils
* pkgconfig
* xorg-x11-devel
* glib2-devel
* pango-devel
* atk-devel
* libtool
* make
* rsvg
* wget
* cvs because of autopoint

===Prepare the build===

When using cygwin 1.7 you can skip this block and continue at cygwin 1.7

Edit configure.in and add the following to CFLAGS at line 10:
 -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include

It should look like this : 
         CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -Wall -Wcast-align -Wmissing-declarations -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Wreturn-type -D_GNU_SOURCE -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include"

Now run
 autogen.sh && ./configure

If you get :
 checking for X... no

try adding the following parameters to ./configure :
 --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib  --x-include=/usr/X11R6/includes

=====Cygwin 1.7=====
With cygwin 1.7 is fairly easy to build navit. Install all the required packages(some has diffrent names now).
Run autogen.sh first and then configure with the following options:

  ./configure --disable-binding-python --disable-plugins

===Build navit===

Skip for cygwin 1.7

Currently, building navit will fail at this point, because we haven't found an implementation of the wordexp function for cygwin.

Here's a message in that thread from an actual competent Cygwin user: http://www.mail-archive.com/cygwin@cygwin.com/msg16750.html

The implication of that is a "C library". A "C library" is an "implementation" of reusable code. It consists of a library file that contains the compiled object code and a header file with the matching declarations that goes along with it. The library is implemented as a static archive at build time and simply linked into the app binary. There's nothing to include in that case -- it's already in there.


====Cygwin 1.7====

Just type make and make install. You can use stow for easy install and uninstall stuff without using packagemangement.

===Configuration GPS===

If you have a gps cable device which spits out NMEA data, you can configure it like under unix. Beware of the following enumeration:
* ComPort1==ttyS0
* ComPort2==ttyS1
* ...

Example:
 <vehicle name="GPSOnCom3" profilename="car" enabled="yes" active="1" source="file:/dev/ttyS2" baudrate="38400" color="#0000ff"/>

===Running under Cygwin===

To run navit under cygwin you need to install the cygwin xorg-server. Than just run navit.



===Make a redistributable package===

* http://cygwin.com/setup.html

Please read and understand http://cygwin.com/licensing.html so that you don't infringe Cygwin's intellectual property rights (copyleft) when you distribute the package you've built.


==Compiling a native binary using mingw==

The main advantage of this method is that it will produce a redistributable binary.

===Downloads===

In order to compile the win32 version of Navit, you need the following software development tools
*GTK+ toolkit for win32 from [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=98754 SourceForgeDownload: Glade/GTK+] (select gtk+-win32-devel)
*MinGW from [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435 SourceForgeDownload: MinGW] (select Automated MinGW installer)

*MSYS from [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435&package_id=24963 SourceForgeDownload: MSYS Base System]
*msysCORE from [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435&package_id=24963 SourceForgeDownload: MSYS Base System]
*diffutils from [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435&package_id=24963 SourceForgeDownload: MSYS Base System]
*autoconf from [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435&package_id=67879 SourceForgeDownload: MSYS Supplementary Tools]
*autogen from [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435&package_id=67879 SourceForgeDownload: MSYS Supplementary Tools]
*automake from [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435&package_id=67879 SourceForgeDownload: MSYS Supplementary Tools]
*gettext from [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435&package_id=67879 SourceForgeDownload: MSYS Supplementary Tools]
*libtool from [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435&package_id=67879 SourceForgeDownload: MSYS Supplementary Tools]
*libiconv from [http://sourceforge.net/downloads/mingw/MinGW/libiconv SourceForgeDownload: MSYS Supplementary Tools]

Probably the easiest way to obtain and install all the MSYS packages is to follow the instructions [http://www.mingw.org/wiki/msys here]

For speech support, one option is to use the "cmdline" speech type (refer to [[Configuring Navit]]) and a utility such as a Windows port of [http://krolik.net/wsvn/wsvn/public/Say%2B%2B/ Say]

== TroubleShooting ==

'''/bin/m4: unrecognized option '--gnu''''

Wrong version of m4, use 1.4.13

'''Can't locate object method "path" via package "Request (perhaps you forgot to load "Request"?)'''

Wrong version of Autoconf, make sure the latest version is installed, plus the wrapper (version 1.7). Also delete autom4te.cache.

'''command PKG_MODULE_EXISTS not recognized'''

For some reason the necessary file "pkg.m4" containing various macros is missing. Find it and put it in ./m4

==Windows Mobile/Windows CE==
[[Compiling_Navit_for_WinCE/WinMobile]] may have details that are relevant for compilation on WindowsCE / Windows Mobile.

You can download now
[http://download.navit-project.org/navit/wince/svn/ cab or zip file for Windows Mobile and WindowsCE]!
Highest number is the newest version of NavIt.

Download it and save on your Storage Card. Install it.

Now you have NavIt on your PDA or Mobile Phone.




'''This is a manual for self compiling (navit.exe)'''


You need to have a Linux (like Ubuntu).
If you didn´t have Linux, start your Linux on Live-CD.

Compiling navit for wince using http://cegcc.sourceforge.net/.
Download latest cegcc release and install it.

In November 2009 versions compiled using arm-cegcc-gcc (both revision 1214 and release 0.59.1) had problems (threw exception_datatype_misalignment and caused access violations).<br />
Using the variant arm-mingw32ce of CeGCC 0.59.1 it was possible to build a working executable which can be debugged (see [[Compiling Navit for WinCE/WinMobile]]).

Source [http://www.archlinux.de/?page=PackageDetails;package=4837 cegcc-arm and mingw]  (TODO dead link)

Current installs in /opt/cegcc.
Setup a cross-compile environment:

Example setcegccenv.sh:
 #! /bin/bash
 export PATH=$PATH:/opt/cegcc/bin/
 export CEGCC_PATH=/opt/cegcc
 export WINCE_PATH=/opt/wince
 export PATH=$CEGCC_PATH/bin:$PATH
 export CPPFLAGS="-I$WINCE_PATH/include"
 export LDFLAGS="-L$WINCE_PATH/lib -L$CEGCC_PATH/lib"
 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$WINCE_PATH/bin"
 export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$WINCE_PATH/lib/pkgconfig"
 export PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR="$WINCE_PATH/lib/pkgconfig"
 

For installation, compiling and configuring please see manual for NavIt on Linux.

Then autogen.sh and configure navit. Example configure for wince:
 ./configure \
 RANLIB=arm-cegcc-ranlib \
 CXX=arm-cegcc-g++ \
 CC=arm-cegcc-gcc \

This is basic just to view the maps. Then:
 make
As usual, osm2navit.exe will fail to compile.
 cd navit && make navit.exe

You find navit.exe under (your directory)/navit/navit/navit.exe

Install sync on your system. 
 

----

For installation you need packages librapi, liprapi2, pyrapi2, libsync.
Package synce-0.9.0-1 contains librapi and libsync.
You do not need to install it again!

----


Once you have navit.exe ready, copy /opt/cegcc/arm-cegcc/lib/device/*.dll on your device.

For Debian use:

 synce-pcp /opt/cegcc/arm-cegcc/lib/device/cegcc.dll ":/windows/cegcc.dll"
 synce-pcp /opt/cegcc/arm-cegcc/lib/device/cegccthrd.dll ":/windows/cegccthrd.dll"

All other Linux/Unix systems use:

 pcp /opt/cegcc/arm-cegcc/lib/device/cegcc.dll ":/windows/cegcc.dll"
 pcp /opt/cegcc/arm-cegcc/lib/device/cegccthrd.dll ":/windows/cegccthrd.dll"


Synchronisation with a grahic surface, if connection to device failed:

Packages RAKI and RAPIP you can use.

RAKI you have in packages synce-kde (see Synce).

RAKI is like Active Sync, RAPIP is a little bit like fish:// under Konquerror.

Under SuSE Linux you can run kitchensync (not for all PDA).

For synchronisation you can also use kpilot under Suse Linux (runs not with all PDA) or Microsoft Active Sync under Windows (free download at Microsoft homepage).

You can put your memory card in card reader and copy data. Over console you must type in 

 sync

before you remove memory card.

 
Install navit.exe.


Debian:
 synce-pcp navit.exe ":/Storage Card/navit.exe"
 
All other:

 pcp navit.exe ":/Storage Card/navit.exe"
 

Prepare a navit.xml.wince

Change gui to win32 and graphics to win32.

Fix the paths to your maps "/Storage Card/binfilemap.bin"

Debian: 

 synce-pcp binfilemap.bin ":/Storage Card/binfilemap.bin"
 synce-pcp navit.xml.wince ":/Storage Card/navit.xml"

All other:
 
 pcp binfilemap.bin ":/Storage Card/binfilemap.bin"
 pcp navit.xml.wince ":/Storage Card/navit.xml"


For a start best use the samplemap.
Now you can launch navit.exe on the device.
