KlayGE's code depends on these following third-party libraries and tools. Since 3.12.0, the source code of these libraries are included in KlayGE. Users can run build_external.py to build and install them.

Core requires:

• Boost 1.53.0. Recommanded bjam command line please check FAQ
• RapidXml 1.13
• 7-zip 9.20

D3D11 Rendering System, DInput Input System and DSound Audio System require:

• Microsoft Windows SDK 8.0 comes with Visual Studio 2012, or
• DirectX SDK June 2010

DShow Show System requires:

• Microsoft Windows SDK 8.0 comes with Visual Studio 2012, or
• Microsoft Windows SDK 7.0A comes with Visual Studio 2010, or
• Microsoft Windows SDK 6.0A comes with Visual Studio 2008, or
• Windows(R) Server 2003 R2 Platform SDK

OggVorbis Audio Datasource requires:

• libogg 1.3.0 and libvorbis 1.3.3, must be compiled to static library

OpenAL Audio System requires:

• OpenAL SDK 1.1

OpenGL Rendering System requires:

• NVIDIA Cg 3.0

OpenGL ES Rendering System requires:

• x86 Windows OpenGL ES 2.0 Emulator, or
• PowerVR Insider SDK v2.9, or
• ARM Mali OpenGL ES 2.0 Emulator v1.3

Python Script System requires:

• Python 3.2. Debug version pythonxx_d.dll need to be compiled from Python's source yourself.

KFontGen tool requires:

• FreeType 2.4.11, Debug and Release solution configurations should be compiled

Notes

Before running building script, Python and CMake must be installed.

As KlayGE uses VC Multi-threaded DLL runtime library, it needs ALL libs that linked to exes change to use Multi-threaded DLL runtime library (Project->Properties->Configuration Properties->C/C++->Code Generation->Runtime Library, select Multi-threaded Debug DLL/Multi-threaded DLL).

In addition, using VC8 and VC9 to compile Release versions of Boost needs to define the _SECURE_SCL = 0 macro. If you are using Boost Build (bjam) to build the libraries, make sure to add "define=_SECURE_SCL=0" to the bjam command line.
