[RFC/PATCH v2 00/17] Build Git with MSVC

[RFC/PATCH v2 00/17] Build Git with MSVC

[Marius Storm-Olsen]

Here's a second roll of the series for supporting compilation of Git
using Visual C++ (MSVC). (Sorry for the long delay on a followup, time
is in short supply these days)

There's no guarantee that the compiled result will work as well as the
current MinGW compile, or at all. However, I think it's important to
get the Git repo to a compilable state with MSVC as quickly as
possible, to further enable contributions from the Windows developers
which we are sorely lacking at the moment.
I hope that a repo which compiles successfully with the tools they are
accustomed to (also a very good debugger) will entice them to send more
patches.

In addition to this series, I have also setup a repo with binaries of
the required libs to compile Git with MSVC. Only 32bit versions for now.
So, the developer can choose to either use that, or Frank's source code
repo to build Git with MSVC. You'll find the binary repo here:
    http://repo.or.cz/w/msvcgit.git

Note that the binaries will still require the msysgit environment for
execution, due to the non-binary components of Git. (Scripts, gitk,
git-gui, etc). You'll find that repo here:
    http://repo.or.cz/w/msysgit.git

=== V2 2009.09.14 ===
1) Rebased ontop on current git.git 'next'.
2) Fixed code and commit msgs based on the previous feedback.
   Let me know if I forgot anything!
3) Added a proper Makefile patch for MSVC support.
   You now compile with 'make MSVC=1'.
4) Added perl scripts (contrib) which uses GNU Make output to generate
   MSVC IDE (.sln & .vcproj) projects and QMake projects, and picking
   up the project settings from the Makefile, so it's all in one place.
5) Added necessary patches to make things compile ontop of current
   'next'.

=== V1 2009.08.21 ===
So, Frank Li started this series, and I took it upon my self to help
out a bit; cleaning, reorganizing, rebasing the series. Hopefully
we're now a bit closer to including the series into mainline..

Here's a summary of what has happend:
1) This series is rebased ontop of git.git 'next', which needed an
   extra patch to avoid a non-constant array creation, which
   mscv doesn't like.
2) I've polished (tied to anyways) the commit messages a bit.
3) I've applied much of the feedback provided to the first round of
   the patches.
4) I've split, merged and reordered some of the patches, so things
   that belong together are in the same commits, and in a order of
   'importance'
5) I've removed the
       #define func _func
   stuff, as it's not needed and Microsoft cannot really kill the
   compatibility functions anyways. So, adding the define
       _CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE
   will kill the warnings seen without the defines above.
6) ..probably much more as well, but I forget..

Note: I did not sign off on the last two commits, which involve the
adding of the vcproj files, since I don't agree on adding them as is.
We need a Makefile way of compiling primarily, and second, a script
to generate the vcproj, as already discussed. But the commits are
included for completeness, at to let others compile and play with it.

I've kept the original author as is, and just signed the patches..
Thanks for watching, now bring on the comments!

[PATCH 02/17] boolean is a typedef under MSVC, so rename variable to 'i_boolean'

[Marius Storm-Olsen]

With MSVC 'boolean' is already a typedef to unsigned char in
the rpcndr.h in the SDK. So, just rename to 'i_boolean' to avoid
conflicts in this one file, instead of any include magic.

[PATCH 07/17] Fix __stdcall/WINAPI placement and function prototype

[Marius Storm-Olsen]

From: Frank Li <lznuaa@gmail.com>

WINAPI is a macro which translates into the proper calling convention, so
replace __stdcall with that.

MSVC requires WINAPI to be between the functions return value and the
function name, and that the function pointer type is in the form of
    return_type (WINAPI *function_name)(arguments...)

[PATCH 08/17] Test for WIN32 instead of __MINGW32_

[Marius Storm-Olsen]

From: Frank Li <lznuaa@gmail.com>

The code which is conditional on MinGW32 is actually conditional on Windows.
Use the WIN32 symbol, which is defined by the MINGW32 and MSVC environments,
but not by Cygwin.

[PATCH 09/17] Add empty header files for MSVC port

[Marius Storm-Olsen]

MSVC lacks many of the header files included by git-compat-util.h,
so add blank header files for these instead of going ifdef crazy.

[PATCH 12/17] Make usage of windows.h lean and mean

[Marius Storm-Olsen]

Centralize the include of windows.h in git-compat-util.h, turn on
WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN to avoid including plenty of other header files
which is not needed in Git. Also ensure we load winsock2.h first,
so we don't load the older winsock definitions at a later stage,
since they contain duplicate definitions.

When moving windows.h into git-compat-util.h, we need to protect
the definition of struct pollfd in mingw.h, since this file is used
by both MinGW and MSVC, and the latter defines this struct in
winsock2.h.

We need to keep the windows.h include in compat/win32.h, since its
shared by both MinGW and Cygwin, and we're not touching Cygwin in
this commit. The include in git-compat-util.h is protected with an
ifdef WIN32, which is not the case when compiling for Cygwin.

[PATCH 15/17] Add MSVC to Makefile

[Marius Storm-Olsen]

Enable MSVC builds with GNU Make by simply calling
    make MSVC=1
(Debug build possible by adding DEBUG=1 as well)

Two scripts, clink.pl and lib.pl, are used to convert certain GCC
specific command line options into something MSVC understands.
By building for MSVC with GNU Make, we can ensure that the MSVC
port always follows the latest code, and does not lag behind due
to unmaintained NMake Makefile or IDE projects.

+The Steps of Build Git with VS2008
+
+1. You need the build environment, which contains the Git dependencies
+   to be able to compile, link and run Git with MSVC.
+
+   You can either use the binary repository:
+
+       WWW: http://repo.or.cz/w/msvcgit.git
+       Git: git clone git://repo.or.cz/msvcgit.git
+       Zip: http://repo.or.cz/w/msvcgit.git?a=snapshot;h=master;sf=zip
+
+   and call the setup_32bit_env.cmd batch script before compiling Git,
+   (see repo/package README for details), or the source repository:
+
+       WWW: http://repo.or.cz/w/gitbuild.git
+       Git: git clone git://repo.or.cz/gitbuild.git
+       Zip: (None, as it's a project with submodules)
+
+   and build the support libs as instructed in that repo/package.
+
+2. Ensure you have the msysgit environment in your path, so you have
+   GNU Make, bash and perl available.
+
+       WWW: http://repo.or.cz/w/msysgit.git
+       Git: git clone git://repo.or.cz/msysgit.git
+       Zip: http://repo.or.cz/w/msysgit.git?a=snapshot;h=master;sf=zip
+
+   This environment is also needed when you use the resulting
+   executables, since Git might need to run scripts which are part of
+   the git operations.
+
+4. Inside Git's directory run the command:
+       make common-cmds.h
+   to generate the common-cmds.h file needed to compile git.
+
+5. Then build Git with the GNU Make Makefile in the Git projects root
+       make MSVC=1
+
+Done!

[PATCH 17/17] Add scripts to generate projects for other buildsystems (MSVC vcproj, QMake)

[Marius Storm-Olsen]

These scripts generate projects for the MSVC IDE (.vcproj files) or
QMake (.pro files), based on the output of a 'make -n MSVC=1 V=1' run.

This enables us to simply do the necesarry changes in the Makefile, and you
can update the other buildsystems by regenerating the files. Keeping the
other buildsystems up-to-date with main development.

The generator system is designed to easily drop in pm's for other
buildsystems as well, if someone has an itch. However, the focus has been
Windows development, so the 'engine' might need patches to support any
platform.

Also add some .gitignore entries for MSVC files.

Signed-off-by: Marius Storm-Olsen <mstormo@gmail.com>
---
 NOTE: Be aware that these scripts are written only with Windows in mind,
 but could be rewritten to support any platform; and that I'm no Perl Guru.
 Anyone with an itch, feel free to send improvements, more generators, and
 what not, so it's more useful, stable and cross-platform. I guess some
 might want CMake, Scons, Eclipse or KDevelop generators too.. maybe.

+   command
+       perl contrib/buildsystems/generate -g Vcproj
+   and open and build the solution with the IDE
+       devenv git.sln /useenv
+   or build with the IDE build engine directly from the command line
+       devenv git.sln /useenv /build "Release|Win32"
+   The /useenv option is required, so Visual Studio picks up the
+   environment variables for the support libraries required to build
+   Git, which you set up in step 1.
 
 Done!

Why do you use "-o git.o" instead of "-o $@"?

According to MSDN, error is manifested by returning INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE (–1):

You're absolutely right. I was too deep in Posix-land when writing this.
Updated patch will follow tomorrow.

Wouldn't it break this toy program?  ftruncate() should preserve the file
offset and use of the seek in the above feels iffy.

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main(int ac, char **av)
{
        int fd = open("testfile", O_CREAT|O_WRONLY, 0666);
        if (fd < 0)
                exit(1);
        write(fd, "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz\n", 27);
        lseek(fd, 7, SEEK_SET);
        write(fd, "H", 1);
        ftruncate(fd, 24);
        write(fd, "IJ", 2);
        close(fd);
        exit(0);
}

The only two in-tree users of ftruncate() do not care about this, though.
They both seek to the beginning and then truncate to zero length.

The description sounds very sensible; I wish I read this one first, before
wasting time scratching my head while reading 03/17.  Shouldn't that patch
be squashed into this one?

Heh, yeah, I agree. After patch got updated with suggestions from last 
roll, it clearly makes more sense hear now. I'll update tomorrow. Thanks.

Re: [PATCH 07/17] Fix __stdcall/WINAPI placement and function prototype

I've already pointed out elsewhere that the documentation of _beginthreadex 
explicitly says that the calling convention of the function pointer must be 
__stdcall. It does not mention WINAPI. Therefore, I think that these two 
changes are not correct:

You should s/WINAPI/__stdcall/.

I don't think that comments by our most proficient MSys guy should be 
disregarded as thee comments were.

I also pointed out that WINAPI is just a define for __stdcall (since 
_MSC_VER >= 800; VC 6.0 being _MSC_VER == 1200 and VC 2008 being 
_MSC_VER == 1500), and that's probably never going to change now. So, 
the change is not as bad as Hannes portrays it to be, and makes things 
less convoluted by using the same convention all over.

However, I'll cave for the pressure, and reroll the commit :)

Re: [msysGit] [PATCH 06/17] mingw.c: Use the O_BINARY flag to open files

Wouldn't it be better to set explicitly set _fmode = _O_BINARY when
_MSC_VER is defined? _CRT_fmode is mingw specific, that in addition to
setting _fmode also sets mode on stdin/stdout/stderr (see
http://www.koders.com/c/fid2B507DE94598397757D615EDF52267578AD838A2.aspx).
Current patch will not set binary mode for files opened with fopen, as
well as stdin/stdout/stderr. One catch might be that declaring it like
"unsigned int _fmode = _O_BINARY" might not work, it seems that you
are supposed to set it somewhere in the code (see
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee2849wt(VS.80).aspx). Perhaps
implementing a function like _mingw32_init_fmode in crc1.c in
mingw-runtime and calling it early in main() would be better?

Thanks,
Alexey.

Re: [PATCH 02/17] boolean is a typedef under MSVC, so rename variable to 'i_boolean'

This patch can actually be dropped, since patch 12 makes the windows.h 
include "Lean and Mean", and rpcndr.h is not indirectly include 
anymore. Sorry for not spotting this before sending the series..

But you don't use the C++ compiler (which does understand that syntax).

It doesn't change the name of the compiler which is called "Microsoft 
Visual C++". We're just using the C part of it :)

Microsoft Visual C++ is product name. If you think it is confuse, it
can change to "MSVC"

I do. OTOH, some people actually use a "product" to compile "software",
so maybe it is okay.

Ok, I'll s/Microsoft Visual C++/MSVC/ and resend tomorrow, just to be 
consistent with the other patches.
