2020-10-30build-system: create an MXE docker container for both 32 & 64 bitGravatar Dirk Hohndel
This should allow us to then do both 32 and 64 bit Windows builds in our CI/CD and of course for our releases. In order to still be able to use this container in a GitHub action, aggressively remove things that we won't need during the build. Since we use the experimental -squash argument during docker build, this should get us a much smaller container image in the end. Signed-off-by: Dirk Hohndel <dirk@hohndel.org>
2020-10-30build-system: Docker build for 64bit MXEGravatar Dirk Hohndel
We previously tried to build the MXE Docker container on GitHub using an Action, but that really didn't work well and was a lot more trouble than it was worth. So this goes back to an offline build mechanism where I simply create an updated Docker image when needed and push that to Docker Hub. But this nearly hides the most interesting change here - we are finally switching to using 64bit binaries on Windows. It's 2020 and fewer than 1% of our users use 32bit Windows machines. We'll need to expand this to be able to have both a 32bit and a 64bit version of Subsurface for Windows. But for now, this solves the problem for 99% of our users.

2019-11-28GitHub Actions: add two stage MXE container buildGravatar Dirk Hohndel
Based on ideas from Anton - both the basic building of containers in the first place as well as the workaround for the 6h build limit. Because GitHub Actions are limited to 6 hours we split the creation of the MXE container into two steps and push the intermediary container after stage 1 to docker hub. Right now each of the steps takes about 3.5 hours, so hopefully even with changes in the future this will continue to work. This commit also introduces use of docker hub instead of GitHub's own registry (since strangely right now GitHub actions cannot run containers from GitHub's private registry). In order for this to work, we need to have the docker credentials in secrets in GitHub. As a result, only people who can create branches in our repository can easily test changes to the container images. Others can modify the code to use a different docker hub account and provide those secrets in their own GitHub account. Not ideal, but of course we cannot allow every pull request to potentially overwrite docker images in our "official" docker hub account.

2019-05-18docker-mxe: Fix tee command line for static buildGravatar Salvador Cuñat
Add -a parameter to tee to avoid overwriting build.log when building static libraries for smtk2ssrf Signed-off-by: Salvador Cuñat <salvador.cunat@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dirk Hohndel <dirk@hohndel.org>
2019-05-18docker-mxe: Make Dockerfile reusableGravatar Salvador Cuñat
Passing an argument on the docker build command line avoids the need to modify the Dockerfile for each image build. Signed-off-by: Salvador Cuñat <salvador.cunat@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dirk Hohndel <dirk@hohndel.org>
2019-05-18Build static glib under mxeGravatar Salvador Cuñat
mdbtools only builds static under mxe. This should add static build of glib to the container with the mxe libraries. [Dirk Hohndel: merged with latest version of Dockerfile] Signed-off-by: Salvador Cuñat <salvador.cunat@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dirk Hohndel <dirk@hohndel.org>
2019-05-18MXE Docker build: clean up DockerfileGravatar Dirk Hohndel
Instead of trying to do it all in one step rely on --squash to do its job. Don't try to be so aggressive in removing things, it saves very little space and caused builds to fail. This results in version 0.9 of the MXE build container Signed-off-by: Dirk Hohndel <dirk@hohndel.org>
2019-01-25build system: Docker image creationGravatar Dirk Hohndel
Just like Android, Windows binaries are best created in a container. I still need to push the latest version to docker hub and use it on Travis, but this way at least the Dockerfile is here. Signed-off-by: Dirk Hohndel <dirk@hohndel.org>
