-====== From the scratch ======
-=====Installing GIT=====
-Download GIT from [[http://git-scm.com/download/win]]\\
-**Git-2.14.2.3-64-bit.exe** (or current version)
-\\
-Just follow the installer with all its defaults.\\

-=====Get Rocrail Sources=====
-start the **Git CMD** application
-  * git clone <repository link> for the first time
-\\
-=====Installing MinGW=====
-Download MinGW-w64 from https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files
-  * [[https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win32/Personal%20Builds/mingw-builds/installer/mingw-w64-install.exe|Online installer]]

-__**Notes:**__
-> Tested version: 8.1.3.

-=====Get wxWidgets Source=====
-<code>
-git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets.git
-</code>
- \\
-=====Enable Graphics Context=====
-<html>
-<!--
-| **Note:** The latest wxWidgets sources do have a correction for the MINGW compiler, so it is no longer necessary to modify the setup.h. (22-08-2019)|
--->
-</html>
-wxGraphicsContext is disabled by default for other compilers than Visual C++.\\
-To enable it you just have to edit the "setup.h" file (in the include\wx\msw subfolder of the wxWidgets sources).\\
-If the file is not present, make a copy of the one named "setup0.h" and name it "setup.h"\\
-In this file, search for wxGraphicsContext.\\
-You should find a section like the following (this is the wx-3.0.x version of the setup.h file):\\
-<code c>
-// notice that we can't use wxCHECK_VISUALC_VERSION() here as this file is
-// included from wx/platform.h before wxCHECK_VISUALC_VERSION() is defined
-#ifdef _MSC_VER
-#   if _MSC_VER >= 1310
-        // MSVC7.1+ comes with new enough Platform SDK, enable
-        // wxGraphicsContext support for it
-#       define wxUSE_GRAPHICS_CONTEXT 1
-#   else
-        // MSVC 6 didn't include GDI+ headers so disable by default, enable it
-        // here if you use MSVC 6 with a newer SDK
-#       define wxUSE_GRAPHICS_CONTEXT 0
-#   endif
-#else
-    // Disable support for other Windows compilers, enable it if your compiler
-    // comes with new enough SDK or you installed the headers manually.
-    //
-    // Notice that this will be set by configure under non-Windows platforms
-    // anyhow so the value there is not important.
-#   define wxUSE_GRAPHICS_CONTEXT 0
-#endif
-</code>
-Replace the last # define wxUSE_GRAPHICS_CONTEXT 0 by **# define wxUSE_GRAPHICS_CONTEXT 1**\\
-Save and launch the build process and wxGraphicsContext should be enabled.\\

-=====Build the libraries=====
-Open a terminal. (cmd.exe)\\
-<code>
-cd wxWidgets\build\msw
-mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc BUILD=release UNICODE=1 MONOLITHIC=1 SHARED=0 USE_GUI=1 CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11"
-</code>
-After the build is ready, the libraries are found here:
-<code>
-wxWidgets\lib\gcc_lib
-</code>
-====Enable Graphics Context====
-In the build setup.h file the wxUSE_GRAPHICS_CONTEXT must also be set to 1.\\
-Path to the setup.h is:
-<code>
-lib\gcc_lib\mswu\wx\setup.h
-</code>
-See also [[#enable_graphics_context|Enable Graphics Context in the sources]]\\
- \\
-=====Build Rocrail=====
-As a prerequisite move the full wxWidgets directory from
-<code>
-Downloads\wxWidgets
-</code>
-to
-<code>
-\Users\<name>\wxWidgets
-</code>
-(or any path you may use)
-\\
-\\
-=====Build the project=====
-Open a terminal and:
-====32 Bit====
-<code>
-cd C:\Users\<name>\Rocrail
-mingw32-make PLATFORM=WIN32 NATIVE=WIN32 DEBUG= MINGWINSTALL=C:\Users\<name>\wxWidgets
-</code>
-====64 Bit====
-<code>
-cd C:\Users\<name>\Rocrail
-mingw32-make PLATFORM=WIN64 NATIVE=WIN64 DEBUG= MINGWINSTALL=C:\Users\<name>\wxWidgets
-</code>
-If another path for wxwidgets was chosen, then MINGWINSTALL= have to point the selected path.
-\\
-\\
-=====Transfer into operational Rocrail environment =====
-After successful compilation the new build is located in
-<code>
-C:\Users\<name>\Rocrail\winbin
-</code>
-Move rocrail.exe, rocview.exe, all .dll and optional the svg directory in your operational Rocrail directory
-======Build Rocrail Update ======
-=====Get Rocrail Update=====
-Updates are only possible after the procedure from the scratch. The whole environment and a local git clone & build have to be in place.
-Start the **Git CMD** application
-<code>
-cd C:\Users\<name>\Rocrail
-git pull
-</code>
-\\
-=====Build the project=====
-Open a terminal and:
-====32 Bit====
-<code>
-cd C:\Users\<name>\Rocrail
-mingw32-make PLATFORM=WIN32 NATIVE=WIN32 DEBUG= MINGWINSTALL=C:\Users\<name>\wxWidgets
-</code>
-====64 Bit====
-<code>
-cd C:\Users\<name>\Rocrail
-mingw32-make PLATFORM=WIN64 NATIVE=WIN64 DEBUG= MINGWINSTALL=C:\Users\<name>\wxWidgets
-</code>
-If another path for wxwidgets was chosen, then MINGWINSTALL= have to point the selected path.
-\\
-\\
-=====Transfer into operational Rocrail environment =====
-After successful compilation the new build is located in
-<code>
-C:\Users\<name>\(Projects)\Rocrail\winbin
-</code>
-Move rocrail.exe, rocview.exe, all .dll and optional the svg directory in your operational Rocrail directory
-====== Build Rocrail with debug option ======
-Sometimes debugging will create useful information for the developers, especially when there is a Rocrail server crash.\\
-Building Rocrail from sources for debugging needs the same environment as described above.\\
-\\
-Open a terminal and:
-====32 Bit====
-<code>
-cd C:\Users\<name>\Rocrail
-mingw32-make PLATFORM=WIN32 NATIVE=WIN32 MINGWINSTALL=C:\Users\<name>\wxWidgets
-</code>
-====64 Bit====
-<code>
-cd C:\Users\<name>\Rocrail
-mingw32-make PLATFORM=WIN64 NATIVE=WIN64 MINGWINSTALL=C:\Users\<name>\wxWidgets
-</code>
-If another path for wxwidgets was chosen, then MINGWINSTALL= have to point the selected path.
-\\
-\\
-After successful compilation the new debug build is located in
-<code>
-C:\Users\<name>\Rocrail\winbin
-</code>
-=====Start the Rocrail Server in gdb Environment =====
-====Build environment====
-Open a console.
-<code>
-cd C:\Users\<name>\Rocrail\winbin
-gdb --args rocrail.exe -l <your-dll-directory> -w <your-workspace-directory>
-[example: gdb --args rocrail.exe -l c:\users\xxx\rocrail\winbin -w c:\users\xxx\documents\ROCRAIL\Taktplan_8_FPA5]
-run
-</code>
-====Installer environment====
-Open a console.
-<code>
-cd C:\Users\<name>\AppData\Local\Programs\Rocrail
-gdb --args rocrail.exe -l C:\Users\<name>\AppData\Local\Programs\Rocrail -w <your-workspace-directory>
-run
-</code>
-  * After starting the server with this options start Rocview and the plan to test&debug should be presented.\\
-  * When the server crash occurs, switch immediately to the console windows and enter the cmd **bt** (which means backtrace)\\
-  * Copy the full information of the **bt** output into a editor, save the file and post it in the Rocrail Forum for analysis.
