Windows installer for robotology dependencies and software contained in the robotology-superbuild.
The generated installer only supports Visual Studio 2019 and 64-bit binaries.
As many of the software contained in the installer are not relocatable, at the moment it only supported to
install the software to the C:\robotology .
- CMake >= 3.14
- Qt Installer Framework >= 3.2.0 (download from https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt-installer-framework/ and make sure that the QtIFW binaries are in the PATH)
- Install (or download from https://github.com/robotology-playground/robotology-superbuild-dependencies) a vcpkg installation with the necessary dependencies in
C:\robotology\vcpkg.
- Download the robotology-superbuild somewhere in your system (for example
C:\robotology-superbuild) and configure to install it toC:\robotology\robotologyvia YCM_EP_INSTALL_DIR, with the option that you prefer:
cd C:\
git clone -b <used_tag> https://github.com/robotology/robotology-superbuild
cd robotology-superbuild
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -A x64 -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=C:\robotology\vcpkg\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake -DYCM_EP_INSTALL_DIR=C:\robotology\robotology -DROBOTOLOGY_PROJECT_TAGS=Custom -DROBOTOLOGY_PROJECT_TAGS_CUSTOM_FILE=<CustomFile> -DROBOTOLOGY_ENABLE_DYNAMICS:BOOL=ON ..
- Compile the project first in Debug, and then in Release, to install both the Debug and Release version of the libraries, but shipping just the Release version of the executables:
cmake --build . --config Debug
cmake --build . --config Release
- Clone this repo, and configure it via CMake:
cd C:\
git clone -b <used_tag> https://github.com/robotology-playground/robotology-installer
cd robotology-installer
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -A x64 ..
- Build the
PACKAGEtarget to generate the installer:
cmake --build . --target PACKAGE
This will create a robotology-installer-<version>-win64.exe installer in the build directory.
