Optional Packages

+.. _iconv:
+
+iconv
+-----
+
+Iconv__ is a program and library to convert between different
+character encodings. We only use the library.
+
+The home of the program and library is
+http://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv/, but Windows binaries can be
+gotten from the same site as the libxml2 library:
+http://www.zlatkovic.com/libxml.en.html. Click on Win32 Binaries on
+the right, and download iconv. Install in e.g. ``C:\``.
+
+On Windows64 you will have to compile iconv yourself. Get the source
+from the `iconv website`__ and extract somewhere. Edit the file
+``config.h.msvc`` and add the line::
+
+ #define EXEEXT ".exe"
+
+Edit the file ``srclib\Makefile.msvc`` and add ``width.obj`` to the
+``OBJECTS`` variable and add::
+
+ width.obj: width.c; $(CC) $(INCLUDES) $(CFLAGS) -c width.c
+
+to the file. Create a file ``windows\stdint.h`` with the contents::
+
+ typedef unsigned char uint8_t;
+ typedef unsigned short uint16_t;
+ typedef unsigned long uint32_t;
+
+Create an empty file ``windows\unistd.h``. Then build using the
+commands::
+
+ nmake -f Makefile.msvc NO_NLS=1 DLL=1 MFLAGS=-MD PREFIX=C:\iconv-1.11.win64
+ nmake -f Makefile.msvc NO_NLS=1 DLL=1 MFLAGS=-MD PREFIX=C:\iconv-1.11.win64
install
+
+Fix the ``ICONV`` definitions in ``MonetDB\NT\winrules.msc`` so that
+they refer to the location where you installed the library and call
+``nmake`` with the extra parameter ``HAVE_ICONV=1``.

+
+.. _zlib:
+
+zlib
+----
+
+Zlib__ is a compression library which is optionally used by both
+MonetDB and the iconv library. The home of zlib is
+http://www.zlib.net/, but Windows binaries can be gotten from the same
+site as the libxml2 library: http://www.zlatkovic.com/libxml.en.html.
+Click on Win32 Binaries on the right, and download zlib. Install in
+e.g. ``C:\``.
+
+On Windows64 you will have to compile zlib yourself. Get the source
+from the `zlib website`__ and extract somewhere. Open the Visual
+Studio 6 project file ``projects\visualc6\zlib.dsw`` and click on
+``Yes To All`` to convert to the version of Visual Studio which you
+are using. Then add a x64 Solution Platform by selecting ``Build`` ->
+``Confguration Manager...``, in the new window, in the pull down menu
+under ``Active solution platform:`` select ``<New...>``. In the pop
+up window select ``x64`` for the new platform, copying the settings
+from ``Win32`` and click on ``OK``. Set the ``Active solution
+configuration`` to ``DLL Release`` and click on ``Close``. Then build
+by selecting ``Build`` -> ``Build Solution``. Create the directory
+where you want to install the binaries, e.g. ``C:\zlib-1.2.3.win64``,
+and the subdirectories ``bin``, ``include``, and ``lib``. Copy the
+files ``zconf.h`` and ``zlib.h`` to the newly created ``include``
+directory. Copy the file
+``projects\visualc6\win32_dll_release\zlib1.lib`` to the new ``lib``
+directory, and copy the file
+``projects\visualc6\win32_dll_release\zlib1.dll`` to the new ``bin``
+directory.
