Development Windows

MS Windows development environment.

Check the win64-create-package.bat file. It will help you to setup the dev environment. If you have any suggestion to the dev environment, please let us know, we are open to any improvement.

Requirements

1. Install Qt 6.8.3 for Windows.
2. Install latest stable [at least 4.0] Hamlib.
3. Install the binaries for OpenSSL 1.1.1

Software and sources must be installed in some specific folders to allow QtCreator to find the libraries.

Let's say that we have GitHub folder:

GitHub |--> klog | |-->src | ..... other folders in the klog source's folder |--> libs | |--> win32 | |--> hamlib (with the default files included in the hamlib distribution for 32bit) | | |--> bin
| | |--> include | | |--> lib | |--> openssl | |--> win64 | |--> hamlib (with the default files included in the hamlib distribution for 64bit) | | |--> bin
| | |--> include | | |--> lib | |--> openssl | | |--> libcrypto-1_1-x64.dll | | |--> libssl-1_1-x64.dll

If you just want to run KLog on Windows rather than build it, see Installation on Windows instead. See Development Notes for general contribution guidelines.
