(Translation of some commands from German to English is required)
This this directory (visualc) with its files
vngspice.sln (project starter) and
vngspice.vcproj (project contents)
allows to compile and link ngspice with MS Visual Studio 2008.
The project is probably not compatible with Visual Studio 2005.
CIDER and XSPICE are included, but the code models for XSPICE
(*.cm) are not (yet) made. You may however use the code models
created with MINGW (which in fact are dlls), as e.g. found in
the ngspice binary distribution.
There is currently no installation procedure provided, you may
however install the executable manually as described in the
installation tree below.
/visualc/include contains a dedicated config.h file. It contains the
preprocessor definitions required to properly compile the code.
strings.h has been necessary during setting up the project.
Install Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 C++
Goto
/ng-spice-rework/visualc
Start MS Visual Studio 2008 by double click onto
vngspice.sln
After MS Visual Studio has opened up, select debug or release version
by checking 'Erstellen' , 'Konfigurations-Manager' 'Debug' or 'Release'
Start making ngspice (called vngspice.exe) by selecting 'Erstellen' and
'vngspice neu erstellen'.
Object files will be created and stored in visualc/debug or visualc/release.
The executable will be stored to visualc/debug/bin or visualc/release/bin.
