Compilation guide for various platforms - Windows - Build training tools about tessdoc HOT 36 CLOSED

@egorpugin Please delete the deprecated info regrading compiling on windows.

@HotDenim Latest Windows binaries with training tools can be downloaded from https://github.com/UB-Mannheim/tesseract/wiki

Though, for training, I would recommend using Linux.

from tessdoc.

Done.

from tessdoc.

Thanks!

@egorpugin

Done.

The new instructions do not work. I followed then, and while SW was executing, it stopped with an error:

[2718/3758] generate: "C:/Users/User/.sw/storage/pkg/1f/e0/12aa/obj/bld/179681/bd/gobject/glib-enumtypes.c"
Exception in file D:/dev/cppan2/client2/src/sw/builder/command.cpp:764, function execute1: When executing: generate: "C:/Users/User/.sw/storage/pkg/1f/e0/12aa/obj/bld/179681/bd/gobject/glib-enumtypes.c"
command failed: exit code = -1073741515 (0xC0000135): The specified module could not be found.
Total errors: 1

This happened for the 4.1 Branch and the Master branch. (I would like to compile the 4.1 branch).

Add -k 1000 options, run.
Then add --trace 2> log.txt options, run and send log.

@egorpugin

Add -k 1000 options, run.
Then add --trace 2> log.txt options, run and send log.

Here is the Log.txt file.

log.txt

from tessdoc.

Try to run sw build org.sw.demo.google.tesseract.training.text2image-master -sfc --trace 2> log.txt
If there are errors:

1. Post log.
2. In .sw\rsp run the latest .bat file (sort by date desc) by double click and post screenshot of error message. There will be dll name that is missing.

from tessdoc.

@egorpugin

No errors displayed (nothing output to screen), but there is in the log file (attached).
log.txt

from tessdoc.

Oh, the missing component is on MS side, not sw.
Can you show winver command output? Win+R, type winver, Enter.

from tessdoc.

Can you send me that .bat file you've run also?

from tessdoc.

See this link - https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-pictures-musicapp/api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0dll-is-missing/b593b94e-6691-423b-a586-0b7f10131e35?auth=1

Try to install VS2015 redist. It is strange, because you have VS and WinSDK installed.

from tessdoc.

@egorpugin

Winver:

BAT file (renamed to .TXT to enable attaching):

1461694303201023788.bat.txt

?

from tessdoc.

@egorpugin

installed VS2015 redist. Then tried again (SW Build .) , but still error.

from tessdoc.

I see. It is Win7. This complicates things a bit.
Possible solutions (except for building on win10):

1. Try to install Win7 WinSDK (6.1 or 6.1A or smth like this).
2. I can install win7 on VM to try to repro this, but this is time consuming, not sure that I have time for this.
3. Find installed WinSDKs C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Windows Kits and send tree command output. I need detailed layout of installed SDKs to possibly tune sw to use them.

from tessdoc.

Also it would be nice if you send tree output of C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Visual Studio 2015 and C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0.

from tessdoc.

@egorpugin

OK will do for next post. Also for sw build org.sw.demo.google.tesseract.training.text2image-master -sfc --trace 2> log.txt:

log.txt

Two .BAT files same date:

1461694303201023788.bat.txt
8802815074161298208.bat.txt

from tessdoc.

1. Win7 WinSDK (6.1 or 6.1A

This ?:

https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=8442

It is version 7.1

also 32-bit distribution or 64-bit (I wish to build both).

from tessdoc.

This ?

Yes, try those installers.

from tessdoc.

@egorpugin

Attached are the Tree output files (refer to the filenames). (I am using Visual Studio 2019)

Also, the VS 2015 redist does not include the api-ms-win-core-io-l1-1-1.dll file. I downloaded this file separately and installed it, after that, the .BAT file now refers to more .DLL errors (api-ms-win-core-synch-l1-2-1.dll). I think these .DLL files are Windows 10 only files ? (see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/uwp/win32-and-com/win32-apis )

Program Files (x86), Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0.txt
Program Files (x86), Microsoft Visual Studio.txt
Program Files (x86), Window Kits.txt
Program Files, Microsoft SDK's.txt
Program Files (x86), Microsoft SDK's.txt

Also, I installed Window 7 64-Bit, new installation, then installed :

• Cmake
• Git
• SW
• Visual Studio 2019
• VS 2015 Redist
• Windows 7 SDK 7.1 (as found in previous post) - 64-Bit

And the same error is present.

from tessdoc.

I think these .DLL files are Windows 10 only files ?

Yes, something like this.

The problem is that sw does not use your host config (host - win7 SDK) and uses win10 sdk. Therefore the binaries cannot be started.
I'll try to do quick fixes in sw, maybe we'll be able to get it working.

Can you send me set command ouput?

Ok, I'm sending a new binary with some updates. Unpack and replace old sw.exe. Run the command and post logs.
First, we'll try to check if winsdk7 is detected by sw.
After that we need to provide correct host settings to sw.

sw.client.sw-1.0.0.exe.zip

Which Command, and which logs ?.

from tessdoc.

The command for building tess like you did before.
sw build org.sw.demo.google.tesseract.training.text2image-master -sfc --trace 2> log.txt

I've checked some things further, it seems we can't fix this issue on win7 right now. (Next sw version is in progress - it should fix the issue.)
So, you have to build it on win10.

from tessdoc.

When will next version be released?

from tessdoc.

How do I build it in Windows 10., the commands ?), for 32-Bit & 64-Bit, and Static & Dynamic Libraries ?. And version 4.1!

Also do I need to download the source via GIT first ?

Also; Can you update the Tessract Documention page with all info.

from tessdoc.

When will next version be released?

After some core algorithms is developed.

How do I build it in Windows 10

Same instructions.

1. Download sources.
2. sw build -platform x86,x64 -static -shared Combine flags as you wish.
3. Output files will be in .sw\out\some hash

E.g. ?, 1 Month, 2 Months ?. 6 Months ?

2. sw build -platform x86,x64 -static -shared Combine flags as you wish.
3. Output files will be in .sw\out\some hash

So for Tesseract 4.1 I will need to download from GIT the source code. first ?, for 4.1 ?. Yes?, and does SW also work with 4.1 ?.

from tessdoc.

and does SW also work with 4.1 ?.

We'll see. In general, it should.
