Precompiled windows binaries

**[Installing EJDB NodeJS win32 module](#ejdb-nodejs-module-installation)**


Building EJDB and TokyoCabinet for windows
==========================================

All TokyoCabinet and EJDB API are ported to windows!

Prerequsties
------------------------------------------

 * Install **Linux x64 OS** (tested on debian/ubuntu)
 * Install all these packages:

```
    autoconf automake bash bison bzip2 cmake
    flex gcc intltool libtool make openssl
    patch perl pkg-config scons sed unzip
    wget xz-utils yasm zip wine git
```


Creating build environment
-----------------------------------------

You need to checkout specific branch of [MXE cross build environmen](http://mxe.cc/)
to build win32 and win64 binaries:

    git clone https://github.com/tonytheodore/mxe.git
    git checkout multi-rebase

Then create MXE settings file:

    cd <mx checkout dir>
    nano ./settings.mk

And enter the following settings into `./settings.mk`:

    JOBS := 1
    MXE_TARGETS := x86_64-w64-mingw32 i686-w64-mingw32
    #SOURCEFORGE_MIRROR := downloads.sourceforge.net
    LOCAL_PKG_LIST := winpthreads pcre zlib cunit
    .DEFAULT local-pkg-list:
    local-pkg-list: $(LOCAL_PKG_LIST)

Then make MXE build env:

     cd <mx checkout dir>
     make

Building EJDB and TokyoCabinet
------------------------------------

    git clone https://github.com/Softmotions/ejdb.git
    cd ejdb

To make win build we have to run this script: `tcejdb/mxe/mxe-build.sh`

    mxe-build.sh <mxe home path> w32|w64 [optional ./configure options]

Example: building win32 binaries + EJDB test cases

    tcejdb/mxe/mxe-build.sh ${HOME}/mxe w32 "--enable-tests"

Example: building win64 binaries:

    tcejdb/mxe/mxe-build.sh ${HOME}/mxe w64

As result you will get zip archive in the folder `./tcejdb`:
    `tcejdb-1.1.0-mingw32-i686.zip` or `tcejdb-1.1.0-mingw32-x86_64.zip`

In those archives you will found:

 * TC/EJDB header files `./include/tcejdb`
 * library DLL: `tcejdbdll.dll` **(Exported All TokyoCabinet and EJDB API)**
 * DLL Import library for MSVC: `tcejdbdll.lib(.exp)` and for GCC: `libtcejdbdll.a`
 * Library for static linking: `libtcejdb.a`


Sample code
--------------------------------
Sample code can be found in `./tcejdb/samples/`

  * `sample1_mingw` Netbeans project for MinGW build env
  * `sample1_win32` Visual studio express 2010 solution


Notes
--------------------------------

* In order to build MSVC import library we need Microsoft's `lib.exe` tool,
it automatically downloaded by `mxe-build.sh` from my dropbox account. So do not be surprised =)

* Database files size on windows 32-bit are limited to 2GB, because on win32 all data is memory mapped.

* HDB `tchdbsetxmsiz()` takes no effect because all file data is memory mapped on windows platform.


EJDB NodeJS module installation
==================================

To install nodejs ejdb binding you need:

 * MSVC 2010 express edition
 * Installed node v0.8.x or v0.10.x
 * Manually installed `npm install adm-zip` package  (because it needed during installation process)

 Then start MSVC cmd window and run:

    npm install ejdb
