Code::Blocks

1. Download and install ghostscript (needed by Imagemagick)
2. Download and install ImageMagick-x.x.x-x-Q16-windows-dll.exe (Do not forget to check the box option "install development headers and libraries for C and C++")
3. Download and install Boost
4. Download and install FFTW (Optional)
5. Download the slip-x.y.z.zip file
6. Decompress it where you want
7. Open CodeBlocks. Select "Settings/Compiler and debugger...":
   • Choose the "GNU GCC Compiler"
   • In the Tab "Compiler settings" choose your compiler flags:
     • "-g -Wall -ansi" is recommanded for debugging mode
     • "-O3 -finline-funtions -DNDEBUG" is recommanded in order to optimize the compilation

     Remarks

     non accessible options (-finline-functions for example) must be added in the tab "Other options" and extra variables (NDEBUG for example) must be added in th "#define" tab

     

     

   • In the tab "Linker settings" click on the "add" button to indicate where you have stored ImageMagick and within the text area "Other linker options" add "-lCORE_RL_wand_" as a new link command.
     
   • In the tab "Compiler" within the tab "Search directories" add the include files search path:
     • "E:\Program Files\ImageMagick-x.x.x-Q16\include" for ImageMagick
     • "E:\Program Files\boost_x_xx_x" for Boost C++
     • "E:\Program Files\slip" for slip
     
   • In the tab "Linker" within the tab "Search directories" add the libraries files search path:
     • "E:\Program Files\ImageMagick-x.x.x-Q16\lib" for ImageMagick
     

Optional installation of FFTW

• Download the < a href="http://www.fftw.org/install/windows.html">fftw-x.x.x-dll.zip file and extract it in the "E:\Program Files\fftw-x.x.x\" directory for example
• Use the dlltool.exe of dev-c++ for building the fftw3-3.a from the fftw3-3.def file:
  • Open a DOS command window.
  • In the CodeBlocks\ directory execute "dlltool.exe -d E:\Program Files\fftw-x.x.x\libfftwx-x.def -l E:\Program Files\fftw-x.x.x\libfftwx-x.a" command
    
  • Select the menu "Settings/Compiler and debugger..."
    • In the tab "#define" within the tab "Compiler Settings" add the variable HAVE_FFTW:
      
    • In the tab "Linker settings" click on the "add" button to indicate where you have stored fftw3 and within the text area "Other linker options" add "-lfftw3" as a new link command.
      

    • In the tab "Compiler" within the tab "Search directories" add the include files search path:

      • "E:\Program Files\fftw-x.x.x" for FFTW
      
  • In the tab "Linker" within the tab "Search directories" add the libraries files search path:
    • "E:\Program Filesfftw-x.x.x" for FFTW
