Some temporary build instructions. This is work in progress.


Windows

Visual Studio

To build pcre I downloaded the sourcecode from www.pcre.org. I downloaded cmake 2.8.
Then I built the lib with:
    cmake .
    nmake

The resulting files can be downloaded here (please try if it works):

MINGW (Qt 4.7 SDK)

I downloaded pcre-8.0-lib.zip from here: http://software-download.name/pcre-library-windows/


Linux

The normal Makefile should work

Install pcre on ubuntu might be needed:
sudo apt-get install libpcre3 libpcre3-dev


Mac OSX

Install pcre:

    sudo port install pcre

Ensure /path/to/pcre.h is in CXXFLAGS, e.g:

    export CXXFLAGS=${CXXFLAGS}:/opt/local/include
