This directory contains Microsoft Visual Studio project files for including v8
|
|
in a Visual Studio/Visual C++ Express solution. All these project files have
|
|
been created for use with Microsoft Visual Studio 2005. They can however also
|
|
be used in both Visual Studio 2008 and Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition. When
|
|
using the project files in the 2008 editions minor upgrades to the files will
|
|
be performed by Visual Studio.
|
|
|
|
v8_base.vcproj
|
|
--------------
|
|
Base V8 library containing all the V8 code but no JavaScript library code. This
|
|
includes third party code for regular expression handling (jscre) and
|
|
string/number convertions (dtoa).
|
|
|
|
v8.vcproj
|
|
---------
|
|
V8 library containing all the V8 and JavaScript library code embedded as source
|
|
which is compiled as V8 is running.
|
|
|
|
v8_mksnapshot.vcproj
|
|
--------------------
|
|
Executable v8_mksnapshot.exe for building a heap snapshot from a running V8.
|
|
|
|
v8_snapshot.vcproj
|
|
------------------
|
|
V8 library containing all the V8 and JavaScript library code embedded as a heap
|
|
snapshot instead of source to be compiled as V8 is running. Using this library
|
|
provides significantly faster startup time than v8.vcproj.
|
|
|
|
The property sheets common.vsprops, debug.vsprops and release.vsprops contains
|
|
most of the configuration options and are inhireted by the project files
|
|
described above. The location of the output directory used are defined in
|
|
common.vsprops.
|
|
|
|
With regard to Platform SDK version V8 has no specific requriments and builds
|
|
with either what is supplied with Visual Studio 2005 or the latest Platform SDK
|
|
from Microsoft.
|
|
|
|
When adding these projects to a solution the following dependencies needs to be
|
|
in place:
|
|
|
|
v8.vcproj depends on v8_base.vcproj
|
|
v8_mksnapshot.vcproj depends on v8.vcproj
|
|
v8_snapshot.vcproj depends on v8_mksnapshot.vcproj and v8_base.vcproj
|
|
|
|
A project which uses V8 should then depend on v8_snapshot.vcproj.
|
|
|
|
If V8 without snapshot if preferred only v8_base.vcproj and v8.vcproj are
|
|
required and a project which uses V8 should depend on v8.vcproj.
|
|
|
|
Two sample project files are available as well. These are v8_shell_sample.vcproj
|
|
for building the sample in samples\shell.cc and v8_process_sample.vcproj for
|
|
building the sample in samples\process.cc. Add either of these (or both) to a
|
|
solution with v8_base, v8, v8_mksnapshot and v8_snapshot set up as described
|
|
above and have them depend on v8_snapshot.
|
|
|
|
Finally a sample Visual Studio solution file for is provided. This solution file
|
|
includes the two sample projects together with the V8 projects and with the
|
|
dependencies configured as described above.
|
|
|
|
Python requirements
|
|
-------------------
|
|
When using the Microsoft Visual Studio project files Python version 2.4 or later
|
|
is required. Make sure that python.exe is on the path before running Visual
|
|
Studio. The use of Python is in the command script js2c.cmd which is used in the
|
|
Custom Build Step for v8natives.js in the v8.vcproj project.
