| The information on this page refers to LM-X License Manager v4.7 and newer, which eliminated the need to use a separate mingw32 installer to compile the LM-X SDK. |
The following steps are designed to compile LM-X SDK on a Windows machine in 5 minutes or less from a command line, using Visual Studio, and using MinGW.
Note: By default, when you install the SDK, Visual Studio opens to let you compile the SDK. We recommend that you use the project files and use the Build, Clean and Rebuild UI actions within the IDE to compile and recompile the SDK. Alternatively, you can compile the SDK from a command line using nmake, as described in "Compiling the LM-X SDK from a command line", below.
When compiling the LM-X SDK under Windows, one of the following is required:
- Visual Studio (Express, Standard, Pro or better)
...
- .
...
- MinGW v4.3.x.
