Building on Windows with WSL

WIP

Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) is a compatibility layer for running Linux binary executables (in ELF format) natively on Windows 10. As such this guide will only work on Windows 10.

Start by installing and enabling WSL as per the MSDN installation guide.

Now open Bash on Ubuntu on Windows.

Get some dependencies sudo apt install build-essential git cmake libmysqlclient-dev

Clone the repository. git clone https://github.com/evemuproject/evemu_server

cd evemu_server Make a build directory mkdir build

cd build Generate Makefile cmake .. Call make make

Everything should compile just fine.
