Windows/Visual Studio Notes
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
To build the BaseTools, you should run the standard vsvars32.bat script
|
|
from your preferred Visual Studio installation or you can run get_vsvars.bat
|
|
to use latest automatically detected version.
|
|
|
|
In addition to this, you should set the following environment variables::
|
|
|
|
* EDK_TOOLS_PATH - Path to the BaseTools sub directory under the edk2 tree
|
|
* BASE_TOOLS_PATH - The directory where the BaseTools source is located.
|
|
(It is the same directory where this README.rst is located.)
|
|
|
|
After this, you can run the toolsetup.bat file, which is in the same
|
|
directory as this file. It should setup the remainder of the environment,
|
|
and build the tools if necessary.
|
|
|
|
Unix-like operating systems
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
To build on Unix-like operating systems, you only need to type ``make`` in
|
|
the base directory of the project.

|
Ubuntu Notes
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
On Ubuntu, the following command should install all the necessary build
|
|
packages to build all the C BaseTools::
|
|
|
|
sudo apt install build-essential uuid-dev
|
