KlayGE 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. The only pre-required one is Python.

Core requires:

• Python 3.2. Debug version pythonxx_d.dll need to be compiled from Python's source yourself.
• Boost 1.47.0. 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:

• DirectX SDK June 2010

DShow Show System requires:

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

OggVorbis Audio Datasource requires:

• libogg 1.2.2 and libvorbis 1.3.2, must be compiled to static library

OpenAL Audio System requires:

• OpenAL SDK 1.1

OpenGL Rendering System requires:

• NVIDIA Cg 3.0

OpenGL ES 2 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

KFontGen tool requires:

• FreeType 2.4.4, LIB Debug and LIB Release solution configurations should be compiled

Notes

As mentioned previously, before the first compilation of KlayGE, run the env_vars.py Python script to set the required environment variables.

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.
