This documentation explains how to compile Capstone for:
- Windows CE 7, a.k.a, [Windows Embedded Compact 7](https://www.microsoft.com/windowsembedded/en-us/windows-embedded-compact-7.aspx), on [ARMv7](http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.ddi0406c/index.html).
- Windows CE 8, a.k.a, [Windows Embedded Compact 2013](https://www.microsoft.com/windowsembedded/en-us/windows-embedded-compact-2013.aspx), on [ARMv7](http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.ddi0406c/index.html).
To build Capstone for a different platform, please refer to `COMPILE.TXT`.
# Prerequisites
We support the following scenario regarding the build machine:
- Build running on Microsoft Windows.
- The C Software Develepment Kit of the target Windows CE **device** installed.
- Only for Windows CE 7:
- C compiler toolchain installed, targetting **Windows Embedded Compact 7** on **ARMv7**. We recommend the toolchain provided with [Windows Embedded Compact 7 toolkit](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj200349%28v=winembedded.70%29.aspx), as the toolchain originally provided with **Visual Studio 2008** is relatively old.
Before building Capstone for Windows CE 7 (respectively, Windows CE 8), the build script `windowsce/make_windowsce7-armv7.bat` (respectively, `windowsce/make_windowsce8-armv7.bat`) needs to be modified. The variables specified in the rest of this section are set in this script file.
# Toolchain specification
The following information need to be specified in the build script in order to perform the build:
- `set WINCE_TOOLCHAIN_ROOT=` is the path of the root directory of the Windows CE toolchain. To build for Windows CE 7, this should be set to the Windows Embedded Compact 7 toolchain. To build for Windows CE 8, this should be set to the device toolchain.
Examples:
- For Windows CE 7:
```bat
set WINCE_TOOLCHAIN_ROOT=C:\WINCE700\sdk
```
- For Windows CE 8:
```bat
set WINCE_TOOLCHAIN_ROOT=C:\Windows_CE_Tools\SDKs\SDK_HW90270\Sdk
```
- `set TOOLCHAIN=` is a semicolon-separated list of the paths of the directories containing the binaries of the Windows CE toolchain.
For example:
```bat
set TOOLCHAIN=%WINCE_TOOLCHAIN_ROOT%\Bin\i386\Arm;%WINCE_TOOLCHAIN_ROOT%\Bin\i386
```
- `set INCLUDE=` is a semicolon-separated list of the paths of the directories containing the C header files of the Windows CE device SDK. To build for Windows CE 7, this should also include the directories containing the C header files of the Windows Embedded Compact 7 toolchain.
Examples:
- For Windows CE 7:
```bat
set INCLUDE=C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows CE Tools\SDKs\Symbol MC3200c70 Windows CE 7.0 PSDK\Include\Armv4i;C:\WINCE700\public\common\sdk\inc
```
- For Windows CE 8:
```bat
set INCLUDE=%WINCE_TOOLCHAIN_ROOT%\Inc;%WINCE_TOOLCHAIN_ROOT%\crt\Include
```
- `set LIBPATH=` is a semicolon-separated list of the paths of the directories containing the library (i.e., `.LIB`) files of the Windows CE 7 device SDK.
Examples:
- For Windows CE 7:
```bat
set LIBPATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows CE Tools\SDKs\Symbol MC3200c70 Windows CE 7.0 PSDK\Lib\ARMv4I
```
- For Windows CE 8:
```bat
set LIBPATH=%WINCE_TOOLCHAIN_ROOT%\Lib\ARMV7\retail;%WINCE_TOOLCHAIN_ROOT%\Crt\Lib\ARM
```
- `set LIBS=` is a space-separated list of linker directives controlling library search.
Examples:
- For Windows CE 7:
```bat
set LIBS=-nodefaultlib:oldnames.lib -nodefaultlib:libcmtd.lib -nodefaultlib:libcmt.lib coredll.lib corelibc.lib
```
- For Windows CE 8:
```bat
set LIBS=coredll.lib
```
# Capstone binary format
By default, the build script produces a **dynamic link library** (i.e., `.DLL`). In order to produce a **static library** (i.e., `.LIB`) instead, the `SHARED` variable needs to be set to `0`, i.e.:
```bat
set SHARED=0
```
# Architectures supported at runtime
Capstone supports the following architectures: ARM, ARM64 (AArch64), M68K, MIPS, PowerPC, Sparc, SystemZ, x86 and XCore. However, Capstone can be configured in order to select which architectures need to be supported **at runtime**. This is controlled via the variable `DISASM_ARCH_LIST`, which is a space-separated list that is a combination of the following names:
- `ARM`
- `ARM64`
- `M68K`
- `MIPS`
- `POWERPC`
- `SPARC`
- `SYSZ`
- `X86`
- `XCORE`.
By default, `DISASM_ARCH_LIST` includes support for **all** architectures supported by Capstone.
For example:
```bat
set DISASM_ARCH_LIST=ARM ARM64 X86
```
will produce a Capstone binary that supports the following architectures: ARM, ARM64 and x86.
## Features customization
Capstone has a list of features that can be controlled when needed. Each feature is controlled through setting a variable from the following list:
- In order to produce a smaller binary that provides a **subset** of the features of Capstone, but still supports all the selected architectures, please specify the following:
```bat
set DIET_MODE=1
```
By default, this variable is set to `0`.
- By default, Capstone uses the default system-provided **dynamic memory management** functions (e.g., `malloc()`, `realloc()`, `free()`) for its internal memory management. However, Capstone can instead be configured to call **custom** memory management functions provided by client applications. In order to enable this behavior, set the following:
```bat
set USE_SYS_DYN_MEM=0
```
- In order to produce a **smaller** Capstone binary, support for the `x86` architecture can be more **limited**. In order to do so, set the following:
```bat
set X86_REDUCE=1
```
By default, this is set to `0`.
- If the **AT&T** disassembly style of the `x86` architecture is never needed at runtime, then disabling support for it can produce a **smaller** Capstone binary. To do this, please set the following:
```bat
set X86_ATT_DISABLE=1
```
By default, this is set to `0`.
Please refer to `docs/README` for more details on these features.
