Kdenlive/Development/WindowsBuild

From KDE Community Wiki

Different efforts are currently being led to make building Kdenlive on Microsoft Windows possible.

Cross compiling on GNU/Linux using MXE

You should first follow the steps necessary to build Kdenlive on GNU/ Linux. Then, on the level where you cloned the kdenlive repository, you should clone a special version of MXE (M cross environment):

git clone https://github.com/vpinon/mxe.git
cat >mxe/settings.mk <<EOF
MXE_TARGETS := x86_64-w64-mingw32.shared.posix
override MXE_PLUGIN_DIRS += plugins/multimedia plugins/kdeframeworks plugins/apps
kdenlive_SOURCE_TREE := $PWD/kdenlive
EOF
cd mxe
make kdenlive
make gdb # useful in case of crash: look for kdenlive PID in task manager, start gdb, run "attach PID"
plugins/apps/deploy_kdenlive.sh

Porting the MLT framework to CMake

To be able to compile Kdenlive with MSVC (Microsoft Visual C++ compiler and libraries toolset). (Elie).
