1 BUILDING FOR MICROSOFT WINDOWS
2 ==============================
4 You can perform the build using either MinGW or Microsoft Visual Studio 2005.
6 Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
7 ----------------------------
9 Open the solution in msvc/mtx.sln.
11 Select the Build / Build Solution menu item.
17 You must be using at least version 2.16.91 of binutils.
19 To generate the initial configure script, this only needs to be
22 ./configure --host=mingw32
28 The only difference is in the naming of devices. On Linux the changer is
29 accessed using /dev/sg<N>, on Windows you use Changer<N>.
31 On Linux the tape drive is referenced using /dev/nst<N>, on Windows you use Tape<N>.
33 There is one exception, in the case where there isn't a driver loaded for the device.
34 This is usually only the case on Windows 2000 or if the Windows XP or Windows Server
35 2003 system supplied driver has been disabled.
37 In the case where there is no driver loaded you can access the device directly
38 through the SCSI driver using the following notation:
40 <port>:<bus>:<target>:<lun>
42 Port is the adapter number
43 Bus is the SCSI bus number relative to the adapter
44 Target is the SCSI device's target ID
45 LUN is the SCSI device's logical unit number
