I have been trying unsuccessfully to compile jemalloc with Visual Studio 10.0
and 11.0 with no luck.
The files and website mention mingw and windows separately, and the msvc_compat
headers seem targeted for this, so I assume that it is possible.
What I want to do is setup jemalloc with a unique prefix on the public methods
and compile it to a static library to be able to use it as the memory allocator
for just one part of a larger 64-bit application.
Can anyone give me some guidance here?
What I have tried so far is as follows, using the current 3.1.0 download:
Since I couldn't find a way to do this on Windows, I used a 64-bit Linux box
and ran ./configure --with-jemalloc-prefix=je_ --with-private-namespace=jeint_
to (hopefully) get all the header files in the desired state. Then I copied
everything over to a 64-bit Windows7 with the MS SDK and Visual Studio
installed, and I borrowed a makefile I use on another C library and updated the
options to include the jemalloc include and include/msvc_compat directories,
and to ensure that _WIN32 is defined, and set it up to compile all C code in
src.
When I run this and it tries to compile arena.c I get all kinds of redefinition
errors and warnings from msvc_compat\stdint.h and then many syntax errors in
include\jemalloc\internal\jemalloc.h.
I suspect that the issue results from the configure on a Linux system, but
instead of spending hours trying to understand how to manually do this for
Windows VS I hope that someone here can get me going much more quickly.
Thanks for any help you can provide!
Bob
