[ome-devel] building omero cpp ice on windows

[Bernhard Voigt]

hi all!

i will need a windows build of the ice/cpp omero library. i could get it
going using the generated sources from the linux build of omero-cpp. i just
copied all header and cpp files from components/tools/OmeroCpp/{src,target}
and put them into folders omero and omero/model. the build with Visual
Studio 2008 went quite well, with minor hickups eg. client.cpp uses long
types, these should be Ice::Long or Ice::Int64 to be platform independent.

howerver, the resulting lib is roughly 300MB and that's not really
convenient to work with. before i start looking into splitting this library
into several bits, i wanted to whether the will be an official windows build
of the cpp client libs for windows in the near future?

by the way, is it at all ossible to split the lib into parts and only use a
small fraction? e.g. if i'm only accessing a few classes like the services,
image, experimenter,... can i only compile and link those into a small lib
and link against this?

thanks! bernhard
