HornetsEye Installation (Windows 32)
HornetsEye Installation (Windows 32)
Installation
Hornetseye relies on a number of software packages which are not
part of the Microsoft Windows distribution. The necessary software packages
to run Hornetseye can be installed by following this step-by-step procedure
- Install Ruby by running the Ruby one-click installer ruby186-25.exe. You need to restart your computer after installing Ruby so that gem is in the system path. Otherwise you may encounter problems installing some of the following packages.
- Unpack the Ghostscript fonts in ghostscript-fonts-std-8.11.zip to c:\gs (so that the font files will end up in c:\gs\fonts).
- Install ImageMagick by running the installer ImageMagick-6.4.3-6-Q8-windows-dll.exe.
- Download the RMagick-gem by opening the command line (cmd.exe), changing to this directory, and executing the command
gem install rmagick-2.6.0-x86-mswin32.gem. If you get a buffer error you need to hack package.rb. Don't forget to change it back after installing the RMagick gem!
- Download and run the most recent version of the HornetsEye installer (hornetseyeinstaller-*.*.exe) available at RubyForge or Sourceforge.
- If there are still problems you can checkout the Frequently Asked Questions on the Internet.
Optionally you can install NArray, MPlayer, and qtruby4. Qt/Windows and MinGW are
required if you want to develop graphical user interfaces with qtruby4
- Optionally you can install the narray-gem by opening the command line, changing to this directory, and executing the command
gem install narray-0.5.9-mswin32.gem.
- Unpack the contents of MPlayer-mingw32-1.0rc2.zip into your programs folder and add the path of
mplayer.exe to your PATH environment variable (for example if the executables are in the folder c:\Program Files\MPlayer-1.0rc2 you need to add this to the path variable).
- Install MinGW with g++ and make by downloading the lates MinGW-5.x.x.exe installer from SourceForge. Use the installer to download and install the current release of MinGW. Make sure you select G++, and MinGW make in the components dialog of the installer.
- Install Qt4 by running the installer qt-win-opensource-4.3.4-mingw.exe. Usually you can ignore the warning that win32api.h is of the wrong version.
- Install qtruby4 by running the installer qtruby4installer.exe.
